Intended Use
The X-ray system creates data for digital exposures in the maxillofacial area and in subareas for dentistry and pediatric dentistry, for hard-tissue diagnostics within ENT medicine, and carpus exposures.
Device Description
The proposed Orthophos S is a dental cone-beam CT system (CBCT), which comprises sensor units for 2D cephalometric exposures, 2D panoramic radiograph and 3D volume exposure. The combination of sensors varies depending on the installed device configuration. In the proposed device, the 3D sensor, as well as the 2D cephalometric sensor, are identical to the corresponding sensors utilized in the predicate device (K150217). However, with respect to the 2D panoramic exposures, the proposed Orthophos S device utilizes a CMOS (scintillation) sensor whereas the predicate Orthophos SL (K150217) utilizes a CMOS (direct conversion) sensor. Orthophos S uses an x-ray beam that rotates around the patient's head. Detectors acquire twodimensional x-ray images at varying radiographic angles. An enhanced software algorithm generates the 2D panoramic and 2D cephalometric images and the reconstruction algorithm reconstructs the 3D volumetric image from the raw image data. The exposed area can be adapted to a specific region of interest to keep the radiation dose as low as possible for the patient. This is achieved by collimating the x-ray beam and the adjustment of starting and ending points of the sensor/x-ray source movement. Furthermore, the radiation dose can be adapted by various parameters such as program types and exposure technique factors. These functions are available for CBCT, cephalometric and panoramic exposures. A Class I laser beam is utilized to define reference lines for the correct patient position. The patient is stabilized through different bite blocks and the motoric driven forehead and temple supports. The obtained digital image data is processed to provide a reconstructed image to the operator/user. The reconstructed images are transferred to the currently marketed SIDEXIS 4 imaging processing software (K132773) and stored in the SIDEXIS 4 software database. The proposed Orthophos S device uses the same SIDEXIS 4 image processing software (K132773) as does the predicate device (K150217) and there are no changes to the SIDEXIS 4 software (K132773) introduced in this premarket notification. The proposed Orthophos S device includes metal artifact reduction software feature which automatically reduces image artifacts caused by radiopaque objects. This identical software feature is also included in the predicate Orthophos SL (K150217) device and remains unchanged in the proposed device. A user control panel allows user actions as e.g. height adjustment, selection of programs and exposure parameters and delivers information about the unit status. For 3D imaging, the proposed Orthophos S allows the user to select volume sizes, within which multiple fields of view, anatomic positions, and collimation may be selected. This is intended to allow the clinician to select the field of view based on the diagnostic need and to minimize the dose exposed to the patient.
More Information

No
The summary describes standard image processing and reconstruction algorithms for a CBCT system. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts. The metal artifact reduction feature is described as a "software feature" and is identical to the predicate device, suggesting it's not a newly introduced AI/ML capability.

No
The device is an X-ray system that creates data for digital exposures and reconstructions of images for diagnostics, not for therapeutic purposes.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the system is used for "hard-tissue diagnostics" and "creates data for digital exposures in the maxillofacial area and in subareas for dentistry and pediatric dentistry," which are diagnostic purposes. The device description also mentions that "The exposed area can be adapted to a specific region of interest to keep the radiation dose as low as possible for the patient. This is achieved by collimating the x-ray beam and the adjustment of starting and ending points of the sensor/x-ray source movement. Furthermore, the radiation dose can be adapted by various parameters such as program types and exposure technique factors. These functions are available for CBCT, cephalometric and panoramic exposures." And "This is intended to allow the clinician to select the field of view based on the diagnostic need and to minimize the dose exposed to the patient."

No

The device description clearly indicates it is a dental cone-beam CT system (CBCT) which includes hardware components such as sensor units, an x-ray beam, detectors, and a user control panel. While it utilizes software for image processing and reconstruction, it is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that the Orthophos S is an X-ray system that creates digital exposures of the maxillofacial area and other anatomical sites. It uses an X-ray beam that rotates around the patient's head to acquire images.
  • No Sample Analysis: The device does not analyze any biological samples taken from the patient. It directly images the patient's anatomy using X-rays.

Therefore, the Orthophos S falls under the category of a medical imaging device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

  1. Description of Device

The proposed Orthophos S is a dental cone-beam CT system (CBCT), which comprises sensor units for 2D cephalometric exposures, 2D panoramic radiograph and 3D volume exposure. The combination of sensors varies depending on the installed device configuration. In the proposed device, the 3D sensor, as well as the 2D cephalometric sensor, are identical to the corresponding sensors utilized in the predicate device (K150217). However, with respect to the 2D panoramic exposures, the proposed Orthophos S device utilizes a CMOS (scintillation) sensor whereas the predicate Orthophos SL (K150217) utilizes a CMOS (direct conversion) sensor.

Orthophos S uses an x-ray beam that rotates around the patient's head. Detectors acquire twodimensional x-ray images at varying radiographic angles. An enhanced software algorithm generates the 2D panoramic and 2D cephalometric images and the reconstruction algorithm reconstructs the 3D volumetric image from the raw image data.

The exposed area can be adapted to a specific region of interest to keep the radiation dose as low as possible for the patient. This is achieved by collimating the x-ray beam and the adjustment of starting and ending points of the sensor/x-ray source movement. Furthermore, the radiation dose can be adapted by various parameters such as program types and exposure technique factors. These functions are available for CBCT, cephalometric and panoramic exposures.

A Class I laser beam is utilized to define reference lines for the correct patient position. The patient is stabilized through different bite blocks and the motoric driven forehead and temple supports.

The obtained digital image data is processed to provide a reconstructed image to the operator/user. The reconstructed images are transferred to the currently marketed SIDEXIS 4 imaging processing software (K132773) and stored in the SIDEXIS 4 software database. The proposed Orthophos S device uses the same SIDEXIS 4 image processing software (K132773) as does the predicate device

5

(K150217) and there are no changes to the SIDEXIS 4 software (K132773) introduced in this premarket notification.

The proposed Orthophos S device includes metal artifact reduction software feature which automatically reduces image artifacts caused by radiopaque objects. This identical software feature is also included in the predicate Orthophos SL (K150217) device and remains unchanged in the proposed device.

A user control panel allows user actions as e.g. height adjustment, selection of programs and exposure parameters and delivers information about the unit status.

For 3D imaging, the proposed Orthophos S allows the user to select volume sizes, within which multiple fields of view, anatomic positions, and collimation may be selected. This is intended to allow the clinician to select the field of view based on the diagnostic need and to minimize the dose exposed to the patient. The table below summarizes the selectable 3D imaging choices available to the clinician.

  • . Operator panel
  • . Laser locator
  • . Cephalometric arm with detector (Ceph sensor)

5. Indications for Use

The X-ray system creates data for digital exposures in the maxillofacial area and in subareas for dentistry and pediatric dentistry, for hard-tissue diagnostics within ENT medicine, and carpus exposures.

6. Substantial Equivalence

The subject Orthophos S has the same intended use as the predicate device Orthophos SL (K150217). Both the Orthophos S and the primary predicate device are intended as Computed Tomography X-ray systems under 21 CFR 892.1750.

The proposed Orthophos S device and predicate Orthophos SL (K150217) incorporate the same functional imaging capabilities (2D panoramic, 2D cephalometric, and 3D volumetric imaging). The principles of operation and patient fixation features of both the proposed and predicate (K150217) devices are identical as is the overall workflow principals.

The primary differences between the proposed Orthophos S and predicate (K150217) devices is the difference in 2D panoramic image sensor technology. The proposed device utilizes a CMOS scintillation method image sensor for 2D panoramic imaging, while the predicate Orthophos SL device utilizes a CMOS direct conversion sensor (DCS) for 2D panoramic imaging. In addition, the proposed Orthophos S does not include image visualization with lingual-buccal exploration, while the predicate device (K150217) includes this functionality.
