Intended Use

The CRUXCAN (CRX-1000) is indicated for capturing, digitization and processing of intra-oral x-ray images stored in imaging plate recording media.

Device Description

The CRUXCAN (CRX-1000) is a dental computed radiography system and is intended to produce digital X-Ray images for dental radiography purposes. It consists of a scanner, reusable imaging plates and workstation software. This device scans X-Ray exposed imaging plate and produces X-Ray image in digital form. Then, digital image is transferred to workstation for further processing and routing. The design features a built-in erase function and a color touch-screen LCD panel without physical push buttons for device operation. This device is intended to be operated in a radiological environment by qualified staff. The Imaging Plate is a polyester film made of densely applied particles of inorganic crystals called photostimulable phosphor. It is a flexible X-ray sensor for the CR system which can be used with a conventional medical X-ray imaging system and can be employed as a substitute for the screen/film system. The phosphor layer has a function of recording an X-ray image. This photostimulable phosphor is a special luminescent material which stores X-ray energy and emits light proportional to the stored X-ray energy when stimulation energy such as visible light is irradiated onto it. CRUXCAN TWAIN Driver and Viewer which transmit and display images are substantially equivalent to the predicate device software as well in terms of functions and principle of operations. The User interface is slightly different but the differences in design do not raise questions in device effectiveness.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and the study proving the device meets them:

The document (K183637) describes the CRUXCAN (CRX-1000), a dental computed radiography system. The acceptance criteria and performance study presented here are primarily focused on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than proving a specific clinical performance threshold against a predefined ground truth or an improvement over human readers.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria are implicitly derived from the comparative performance shown against the predicate devices. The "SE Note" column indicates whether the subject device is considered "Equivalent" or if there's "No issue on safety and effectiveness" despite differences. This means the subject device's performance, even if quantitatively different, is considered acceptable because it's either comparable or superior without raising new safety/effectiveness concerns.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document states that "Performance studies were conducted on the device imaging plate according to the FDA guidance 'Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices'." However, it does not specify the sample size used for performance testing (e.g., number of images, number of patients).

Furthermore, the data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective) for any images used in the performance evaluation is not mentioned in the provided text.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

The provided document does not mention the use of experts to establish a ground truth for a test set in the context of clinical performance or diagnostic accuracy. The performance evaluation focuses on technical imaging characteristics (e.g., DQE, MTF, resolution).

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Since there is no mention of a test set requiring expert interpretation or establishing clinical ground truth, there is no adjudication method described.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. The document explicitly states: "Clinical testing was not necessary for the subject device, in order to demonstrate substantial equivalence." Therefore, there is no information on the effect size of human readers improving with AI vs. without AI assistance as this type of study was not conducted.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study

The device is an imaging system (scanner, imaging plate, workstation software) that produces images, rather than an AI algorithm for image analysis. Therefore, the concept of a "standalone" algorithm-only performance as typically applied to AI CAD systems does not directly apply in the context presented. The performance tests ("Performance studies were conducted on the device imaging plate") describe the technical capabilities of the imaging system itself.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth for the performance tests appears to be technical measurements and comparisons of physical imaging characteristics (e.g., lp/mm for resolution, percentage for MTF, lp/mm for DQE) against established engineering standards and the specifications of predicate devices. This is not a clinical ground truth like pathology or outcomes data.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not mention a training set as this device is a hardware/software system for image acquisition and processing, not a machine learning algorithm that requires a training set in the typical sense.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

As no training set is mentioned or applicable in the context of this traditional medical device evaluation for image acquisition, there is no information on how ground truth was established for a training set.

The CRUXCAN is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, Digora Optime (K041050) and Digora Optime (K133231) in indications for use, imaging principle, and physical characteristics. The CRUXCAN also has similarities in power supply, operating system, X-ray absorber and imaging plate size.

The differences of the three devices are pixel size, dynamic range, resolution, and image plate performance. As compared in the chart above, the subject device has better or substantially equivalent resolution, DQE, and MTF data. The smaller pixel size of subject device than

{6}------------------------------------------------

the predicate device offers wider dynamic range with storing image data using more bits.

The imaging plates are similar to the predicate plates and they employ the same technology and principle of operation. Despite the minor differences, the results of the performance testing provided in the submission support that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

10. Performance Tests

  • . Performance studies were conducted on the device imaging plate according to the FDA guidance "Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices".
  • . The CRUXCAN (CRX-1000) has been tested for Electromagnetic Compatibility and Safety in accordance with the IEC60601 standards. The devices operated within the EMI emission, susceptibility and static discharge levels specified in the IEC 60601 standards.
  • . Software Validation Test

The test results of the tests performed on the subject device supported that it is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Clinical testing was not necessary for the subject device, in order to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

11. Conclusions:

Based on the information provided in this premarket notification, CRUXELL Corp. concludes that the CRUXCAN (CRX-1000) is substantially equivalent to the predicate device as described herein in.
