Intended Use
The GR40CW Digital X-ray Imaging System is intended for use in general projection radiographic applications wherever conventional screen-film systems or CR systems may be used. This device is not intended for mammographic applications.
Device Description
The GR40CW digital X-ray imaging system consists of Detector, Power supply box, Battery pack, Battery charger, Access point, CIB(Control Interface Box), Workstation, Barcode scanner, Main cable and software for image acquisition and image processing and does not include the X-ray generator. This 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 device before being sent to the S-Station (Operation Software) and saved in DICOM file, a standard for medical imaging. The captured images are sent to the Picture Archiving & Communication System (PACS) server, and can be used for reading images. The GR40CW digital 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 GR40CW as three detectors are newly added, and some software features called as SimGrid, S-Enhance, BSI (Bone Suppression Image), Remote View and manual Stitching are newly added as stated below. SimGrid software option, cleared with K171119. is able to compensate the contrast loss due to scatter radiations, primarily acquisitions without a physical anti-scatter grid. BSI software option suppresses bone anatomy and S-Enhance is renamed from Tube & Line Enhancement (TLE), which was cleared before with the predicate device 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 GR40CW digital X-ray imaging system was Moderate in accordance with the FDA guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Device".
More Information

No
The document describes image processing features like SimGrid, S-Enhance, and BSI, but none of the descriptions explicitly mention the use of AI or ML algorithms. These features appear to be based on traditional image processing techniques.

No.
The device is an imaging system used to capture X-ray images, which are then used for diagnostic purposes, not for treatment or therapy.

Yes

The device is an X-ray imaging system that captures medical images which are then used for reading and diagnosis by qualified professionals. The "Intended Use" states it's for general projection radiographic applications, and the "Device Description" mentions captured images are sent to PACS for "reading images," which implies diagnostic interpretation. The "Summary of Performance Studies" also indicates that images generated by the S-Enhance software are able to show clear visibility for foreign bodies and urinary stones, which are diagnostic findings.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components (Detector, Power supply box, Battery pack, Battery charger, Access point, CIB, Workstation, Barcode scanner, Main cable) in addition to the software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "general projection radiographic applications". This involves capturing images of the internal structures of the body using X-rays.
  • Device Description: The device description details a system for acquiring and processing X-ray images. It involves a detector, power supply, workstation, and software for image manipulation.
  • Mechanism of Action: The system works by transmitting X-rays through a patient's body and converting the resulting signals into digital images. This is a physical imaging process, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples in vitro (outside the body).

IVD devices are used to examine specimens such as blood, urine, or tissue to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. This device operates on the patient directly to produce images for diagnostic interpretation by a qualified professional.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Phantom image evaluations for the new detector 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 that the complete system works as intended. They were evaluated by professional radiologists 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, 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.

Integration Information

This is a retrofit system consisting of Detectors, Power supply box, Battery charger, Access point, CIB (Control Interface Box), Workstation, Barcode scanner and Main cable. This retrofit system is designed to generate a digital image while using the current analogue X-ray system by upgrading only the part of an analogue cassette film to the digital panel(detector), and does not get involved in controlling X-ray radiation related parameters, which is still controlled by the existing X-ray system.

The GR40CW retrofit system can be applied to the existing analogue X-ray system by two ways (CIB and AED modes). 1) In CIB mode, CIB is only connected to a signal line of a hand switch for passively detecting the signal, as On or Off, coming out from the hand switch to the X-ray Generator Console, to make the digital detector ready to active or inactive to receive Xray radiation. 2) In AED (Automatic Exposure Detection) mode, without CIB, the detector is sensing of radiation exposure. Once it recognizes the exposure, it become active right away to receive X-ray radiation. This whole process is independently operated from the existing

510(k) Premarket Notification - Traditional analogue X-ray system.

Image /page/5/Figure/3 description: The image shows two integration diagrams, one for CIB mode and one for AED mode, of a GR40CW Retrofit Kit with an existing X-ray system. The CIB mode diagram shows the GR40CW Retrofit Kit consisting of a detector, workstation, and CIB, connected to the existing X-ray system, which includes an X-ray generator console and a hand switch. The AED mode diagram shows the GR40CW Retrofit Kit consisting of a detector and workstation, connected to the existing X-ray system, which includes an X-ray generator console and a hand switch. The diagrams illustrate the flow of signals and the components involved in each mode.

In conclusion, this retrofit kit does not either require a modification / alteration or control in the part of X-ray radiation control of the current X-ray system in anyway.

8. Intended Use

The GR40CW Digital X-ray Imaging System is intended for use in general projection radiographic applications wherever conventional screen-film systems may be used. This device is not intended for mammographic applications.

9. Summary of Technological characteristic of the proposed device compared with the predicate device

The proposed device GR40CW apply the software feature as S-Enhance, which were cleared with K171119, to GR40CW product which was cleared with K180543 without changes in technical characteristics, materials, energy sources and biocompatibility such as X-ray Tube Assembly except of detector.

Phantom image evaluations for the new detector 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 that the complete system works as intended. They were evaluated by professional radiologists 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, 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 results of the non-clinical data & clinical data demonstrate that the proposed device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed devices.
