No
The document describes image processing techniques (S-Enhance, Manual Stitching, Remote View) but does not mention AI, ML, or related terms like neural networks or deep learning. The focus is on enhancing visibility and combining images, which are standard image processing functions.
No
Explanation: The device is an X-ray imaging system used to generate radiographic images for diagnostic purposes, not for treating conditions.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states: "The GM85 Digital Mobile X-ray imaging System is intended for use in generating radiographic images of human anatomy by a qualified/trained doctor or technician." While it generates images, the "Device Description" also mentions the "S-Station, which is the Operation Software (OS) of Samsung Digital Diagnostic X-ray System." This explicitly labels the system as "Diagnostic." Furthermore, the text states "The captured images ... send to the Picture Archiving & Communication System (PACS) sever for reading images," implying the images are used for diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "Digital Mobile X-ray imaging System" that transmits X-rays, uses a detector, and has hardware components like the S-Station. While it includes software features, it is fundamentally a hardware device with integrated software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "generating radiographic images of human anatomy." This is a diagnostic imaging device, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body (which is the definition of an IVD).
- Device Description: The description details how the device captures X-ray images of a patient's body and processes those images. This aligns with the function of an X-ray imaging system, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
The device is a digital mobile X-ray imaging system used for generating medical images, which falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not IVDs.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The GM85 Digital Mobile X-ray imaging System is intended for use in generating radiographic images of human anatomy by a qualified/trained doctor or technician. This device is not intended for mammographic applications.

Device Description
The GM85 Digital Mobile X-ray imaging System is used to capture images by transmitting X-ray to a patient's body. The X-ray passing through a patient's body is sent to the detector and then converted into electrical signals. These signals go through the process of amplification and digital data conversion in the signal process on the S-Station, which is the Operation Software (OS) of Samsung Digital Diagnostic X-ray System, and save in DICOM file, a standard for medical imaging. The captured images are tuned up by an Image Post-processing Engine (IPE) which is exclusively installed in S-Station, and send to the Picture Archiving & Communication System (PACS) sever for reading images.
The GM85 Digital Mobile X-ray imaging System was previously cleared with K180543, and through this premarket notification, we would like to add more configurations in the previously cleared GM85 as a fixed column type and two detectors are newly added, and three software features are newly added as stated below.
S-Enhance is renamed from Tube & Line Enhancement (TLE), which was cleared before with GM85 at K171119, to enhance visibility of tubes and lines and provide enhanced images separately from original images. In this submission, the scope of S-Enhance is expanded from tubes and lines on chest images to foreign body (e.g. tubes, lines and needles) and urinary stones on chest, abdomen, and L-spine. And Manual Stitching to capture a body part that is larger than the detector's by capturing multiple images and Remote View function to remote access to view the current image on the workstation through a web browser. It was determined that the level of concern for the software contained in the GM85 Digital Mobile X-ray imaging System was Moderate in accordance with the FDA guidance, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Device".

(1) | Appearances | The proposed device GM85 adds newly a fixed column type in comparison with the predicated device's one that has only collapsible column type. The fixed column type has two options about the column's height, 1,800mm and 1,980mm. It does not contribute any adverse impacts to the device's image quality. The variety of column's types can be more helpful to choose the right equipment for fitting user's needs. |
(2) | Moving Range | |
(Vertical) | The vertical moving range of proposed device GM85 varies depending on the column type. | |
(3) | Collimator | The proposed device GM85 has different types of collimator depending on column type. The collapsible column type has the same collimator(automatic, SDR-OGCL40U) applied to the predicate device and the fixed column type has the new type of collimator(manual, SDR-OGCL41U) which does not contribute any adverse impacts to the device's image quality. |
(4)-1 | Detector | |
Dust/Water-resistance | The new detectors which are added to the GM85 device have better dust/water-resistance than the predicate device's dust/water-resistance and this change does not contribute any adverse impact to the device's safety and effectiveness. | |
(4)-2 | Detector | |
Max.load capacity | The new detectors which are added to the GM85 device have higher max load capacity than the predicate device's max load capacity and this change does not contribute any adverse impact to the device's safety and effectiveness. | |
(5) | Tube & Line | |
Enhancement(TLE) / S-Enhance | Tube & Line Enhancement (TLE), which was cleared with K171119, is to enhance visibility of tubes and lines on chest images and provide enhanced images separately from original images. TLE is renamed as S-Enhance, expanding its coverage and scope in this proposed device. S-Enhance is expanded from tubes and lines on chest images to foreign body (e.g. tubes, lines and needles) and urinary stones on chest, abdomen, and L-spine. This change is considered low risk and does not |

B. Safety, EMC and Performance Data
Electrical, mechanical, environmental safety and performance testing according to standard ES 60601-1,IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-3, IEC 60601-2-28, IEC 60601-2-54, ISO14971, 21CFR1020.30 and 21CFR1020.31 were performed, and EMC testing was conducted in accordance with standard IEC 60601-1-2. Wireless function was tested and verified followed by guidance, Radio frequency Wireless Technology in Medical Devices. All test results were satisfying the standards.
C. Non-clinical data
Non-clinical data was provided in conformance to the FDA "Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid-State X-ray Imaging Devices", which includes MTF and DQE measurements as tested by IEC 62220-1.
The proposed device has new types of detectors that have equivalent image characteristics as the existing ones. Specific description is added to make it clear with the non-clinical data and phantom image evaluation report. And those detectors evaluated by Software System Test Case for verification and validation.
The S-Enhance is same image processing technology as TLE of predicate device GM85 (K171119) and extends the applicable body parts to chest, abdomen, and L-spine so it shows no difference in non-clinical testing data such as TLC and CER measurements from TLE of the predicate device GM85 (K171119).
Manual Stitching is optional software to capture a body part that is larger than the detector's area and evaluated Software System Test Case for verification and validation.
D. Clinical data
In clinical data, phantom image evaluations of the new types of detectors and S-Enhance were performed in accordance with FDA guidance for the submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices. Anthropomorphic phantom images were provided; these images were not necessary to establish substantial equivalence based on the modifications to the device (note X-ray flat-panel detector similar to the predicate detector) but they provide further evidence in addition to the performance data to show
9
510(k) Premarket Notification - Traditional
that the complete system works as intended. They were evaluated by a professional radiologist and found to be equivalent to the predicate devices. There is no significant difference in the average score considering the standard deviation of image quality evaluation between the proposed device and the predicate device and it is confirmed that S-Enhance is able to generate a companion image which provide clear visibility for foreign bodies such as lines, tubes, and needles, and urinary stones in chest, abdomen, and L-spine protocol in addition to the original images. Therefore, these changes do not affect either the safety or the effectiveness, compared to the predicated device.
E. Conclusions
The non-clinical and clinical demonstrates that the proposed device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed predicate devices.
