No
The device description explicitly states it is a "tomographic and solid state x-ray system" and includes hardware components such as a tube, operator console, motorized patient table/wall stand, and flat-panel detectors.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The DR 600 system is an X-ray imaging system. It captures images of the internal structure of the body using X-rays. This is an in vivo (within the living body) diagnostic method, not in vitro (in glass/outside the body).
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for making, processing, and viewing static X-ray radiographic images of various body parts. This involves imaging the patient directly, not analyzing samples from the patient.
The information provided describes a medical imaging device used for diagnostic purposes on the patient, which falls under the category of medical devices but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostics.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The DR 600 system is a General Radiography X-ray imaging system used in hospitals, clinics and medical practices by radiographers, radiologists and physicists to make, process and view static X-ray radiographic images of the skeleton (including skull, spinal column and extremities), chest, abdomen and other body parts on adult, pediatric or neonatal patients.
In addition, the system provides the Agfa tomosynthesis option, which is intended to acquire tomographic slices of human anatomy and to be used with Agfa DR X-ray systems. Digital tomosynthesis is used to synthesize tomographic slices from a single tomographic sweep.
Applications can be performed with the patient in the sitting, standing or lying position.

Device Description
The DR 600 with Tomosynthesis is a tomographic and solid state x-ray system (product codes IZF and MQB) intended to capture tomographic slices and static images of the human body. The DR 600 with Tomosynthesis is a ceiling mounted tomographic and general radiographic system that consists of a tube and operator console with a motorized patient table and/or wall stand. The DR 600 with Tomosynthesis uses Agfa's NX workstation with MUSICA2 ™ image processing and flat-panel detectors of the scintillator-photodetector type (Cesium Iodide - CsI or Gadolinium Oxysulfide - GOS). It is capable of replacing other direct radiography, tomography, image intensifying tubes and TV cameras, including computed radiography systems with conventional or phosphorous film cassettes.
This submission is to add the newest version of the DR 600 with Tomosynthesis to Agfa's radiography portfolio.
The optional image processing allows users to conveniently select image processing settings for different patient sizes and examinations. The image processing algorithms in the new device are identical to those previously cleared in the DR 800 (K183275- primary) and DR 600 (K152639) predicate devices and other devices in Agfa's radiography portfolio today. The addition of the tomographic image processing is identical to the DR 800 (K183275) primary predicate device.
Principles of operation and technological characteristics of the new and predicate devices are the same. The new device is virtually identical to Agfa's predicate DR 600 (K152639) with the exception that it has additional MUSICA Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) software for processing tomographic slices. MUSICA DTS software is identical to the software in Agfa's predicate DR 800 with Tomosynthesis (K183275). It uses the same flat panel detectors to capture and digitize the image. Laboratory data and image quality evaluations conducted with internal and independent specialists confirm that performance is equivalent to the predicates. Differences in devices do not alter the intended diagnostic effect nor do they impact the safety and effectiveness of the device.
Configuration information for the flat-panel detectors can be found in the DR 14s (K161368), DR 14e/17e (K172784), DX-D 40/45/60 (K142184) and DR 600 User Manuals. The DR 14s, DR 14e/17e, RF FL4343 and DX-D 40/45/60 detectors can be integrated in an X-ray system that communicates to a workstation. The Service Manual details the possible configurations and integrations with the NX workstation and X-ray generator. All of Agfa's DR X-ray systems (i.e. DX-D 100-K103597, DX-D 300-K103050, DX-D 600-K112670, DR 400-K141192, DR 600-K152639, DR 800-K183275) will integrate with the detectors. The NX Service Manual, Chapter 4 and associated appendices addresses the installation and configuration with other system components.

Summary of Performance Studies
Bench Testing:
- Technical and acceptance testing was completed on the DR 600 to confirm the medical device functions and performs as intended. All deviations or variances are documented in a defect database and addressed in the CRD documentation and verified. All mitigations have been tested and passed. All design input requirements have been tested and passed. All planned verification activities have been successfully completed.
- functionality evaluations were conducted with three qualified radiographers. The results of these tests fell within the acceptance criteria for the DR 600; therefore, the DR 600 supports a tomographic workflow and Smart Dr visualization including adult and pediatric patients.
- Clinical image validation was conducted during testing in support for the 510(k) clearance for the flat-panel detectors (K161368, K172784 and K142184) in a previous premarket submission. Image quality bench tests were conducted in support of this 510(k) submission in which anthropomorphic adult and pediatric images taken with the DR 600 and the primary predicate device, DR 800 (K183275) were compared to ensure substantial equivalency. The test results indicated the image processing of the DR 600 passed the acceptance criteria and was equal to the image processing for the primary predicate, DR 800 (K183275) device for both adult and pediatric patients.
Software Verification and Validation Testing:
- Verification and validation plans comprise of test protocols. The complete device has been certified and validated.
- Software verification testing for Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) was completed in scope of the DR 600 system. Four software iterations were tested, including the tube head and XRDi. HERDE defects were identified; however, they were solved between test execution and the completion of the final report and will be part of the next maintenance software release.
- For the NX22 (NX Nomad) software there are a total of 342 risks in the broadly acceptable region and 27 risks in the ALARP region with only one of these risks identified. Zero risks were identified in the Not Acceptable Region.

IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The DR 600 with Tomosynthesis is a tomographic and solid state x-ray system (product codes IZF and MQB) intended to capture tomographic slices and static images of the human body. The DR 600 with Tomosynthesis is a ceiling mounted tomographic and general radiographic system that consists of a tube and operator console with a motorized patient table and/or wall stand. The DR 600 with Tomosynthesis uses Agfa's NX workstation with MUSICA2 ™ image processing and flat-panel detectors of the scintillator-photodetector type (Cesium Iodide - CsI or Gadolinium Oxysulfide - GOS). It is capable of replacing other direct radiography, tomography, image intensifying tubes and TV cameras, including computed radiography systems with conventional or phosphorous film cassettes.
This submission is to add the newest version of the DR 600 with Tomosynthesis to Agfa's radiography portfolio.
The optional image processing allows users to conveniently select image processing settings for different patient sizes and examinations. The image processing algorithms in the new device are identical to those previously cleared in the DR 800 (K183275- primary) and DR 600 (K152639) predicate devices and other devices in Agfa's radiography portfolio today. The addition of the tomographic image processing is identical to the DR 800 (K183275) primary predicate device.
Principles of operation and technological characteristics of the new and predicate devices are the same. The new device is virtually identical to Agfa's predicate DR 600 (K152639) with the exception that it has additional MUSICA Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) software for processing tomographic slices. MUSICA DTS software is identical to the software in Agfa's predicate DR 800 with Tomosynthesis (K183275). It uses the same flat panel detectors to capture and digitize the image. Laboratory data and image quality evaluations conducted with internal and independent specialists confirm that performance is equivalent to the predicates. Differences in devices do not alter the intended diagnostic effect nor do they impact the safety and effectiveness of the device.
Configuration information for the flat-panel detectors can be found in the DR 14s (K161368), DR 14e/17e (K172784), DX-D 40/45/60 (K142184) and DR 600 User Manuals. The DR 14s, DR 14e/17e, RF FL4343 and DX-D 40/45/60 detectors can be integrated in an X-ray system that communicates to a workstation. The Service Manual details the possible configurations and integrations with the NX workstation and X-ray generator. All of Agfa's DR X-ray systems (i.e. DX-D 100-K103597, DX-D 300-K103050, DX-D 600-K112670, DR 400-K141192, DR 600-K152639, DR 800-K183275) will integrate with the detectors. The NX Service Manual, Chapter 4 and associated appendices addresses the installation and configuration with other system components.

VI. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH PREDICATE DEVICES
Agfa's DR 600 with Tomosynthesis and the DR 800 with Tomosynthesis primary predicate device (K183275) are tomographic x-ray systems, Product Code IZF. The new device and DR 600 predicate device (K152639) are solid state x-ray systems, Product Code MQB). Agfa's DR 600 with Tomosynthesis is substantially equivalent to both predicate devices (K183275 & K152639) in that it uses precisely the same technology to capture and transmit images. The complete DR 600 system consists of a stationary table, ceiling mounted suspension equipped with a collimator and tube housing assembly, integrated x-ray generator, NX MUSICA software and one or more DR flat-panel detectors.
6
Principles of operation and technological characteristics of the new and predicate devices are the same. The new device is virtually identical to Agfa's predicate DR 600 (K152639) with the exception that it has additional MUSICA Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) software for processing tomographic slices. MUSICA DTS software is identical to the software in Agfa's predicate DR 800 with Tomosynthesis (K183275). It uses the same flat panel detectors to capture and digitize the image. Laboratory data and image quality evaluations conducted with internal and independent specialists confirm that performance is equivalent to the predicates. Differences in devices do not alter the intended diagnostic effect nor do they impact the safety and effectiveness of the device.
The optional image processing allows users to conveniently select image processing settings for different patient sizes and examinations. The image processing algorithms in the new device are identical to those previously cleared in the DR 800 (K183275- primary) and DR 600 (K152639) predicate devices and other devices in Agfa's radiography portfolio today. The addition of the tomographic image processing is identical to the DR 800 (K183275) primary predicate device.
Agfa's DR 600 with Tomosynthesis has an Indications For Use statement virtually identical to predicate device (K152639) except it includes the addition of tomosynthesis. However, the tomosynthesis addition is identical to the statement in primary predicate device (K183275). Intended uses are the same. The devices have the same technological characteristics.
The DR 600 with Tomosynthesis indications for use is equivalent to predicate (K152639) because both include the delineation of anatomical areas and primary predicate (K183275) includes imaging applications and the application of tomosynthesis. The DR 600 with Tomosythnesis and both predicate devices (K183275 and K152639) include the statement that the devices are not indicated for mammography.
The new device and the DR 800 with Tomosynthesis primary predicate device (K183275) are tomographic x-ray systems, Product Code IZF. The new device and DR 600 predicate device (K152639) are solid state x-ray systems, Product Code MQB). Agfa's DR 600 with Tomosynthesis is substantially equivalent to both predicate devices (K183275 & K152639) in that it uses precisely the same technology to capture and transmit images.
Descriptive characteristics and performance data including image quality evaluations by internal and external specialists are adequate to ensure equivalence.
Table 2 on the next page summarizes the similarities and differences between the new device and predicates.

Verification and validation testing confirmed the device meets performance, safety, usability and security requirements. Pediatric indications were also taken into account. Results were verified and validated.
No clinical trials were performed in the device. No animal or clinical studies were performed in the development of the new device. No patient treatment was provided or withheld.
Bench Testing
Image quality evaluations for adults and pediatric patients, performance/functionality and usability data has been provided.
- Technical and acceptance testing was completed on the DR 600 in order to confirm the medical device functions and performs as intended. All deviations or variances are documented in a defect database and addressed in the CRD documentation and verified. All mitigations have been tested and passed. All design input requirements have been tested and passed. All planned verification activities have been successfully completed.
- functionality evaluations were conducted with three qualified . Usability and radiographers. The results of these tests fell within the acceptance criteria for the DR 600; therefore, the DR 600 supports a tomographic workflow and Smart Dr visualization including adult and pediatric patients.
- Clinical image validation was conducted during testing in support for the 510(k) clearance ● for the flat-panel detectors (K161368, K172784 and K142184) in a previous premarket submission. Refer to these 510(k) clearances for full image quality validation testing for the detectors. Image quality bench tests were conducted in support of this 510(k) submission in which anthropomorphic adult and pediatric images taken with the DR 600 and the primary predicate device, DR 800 (K183275) were compared to ensure substantial equivalency. The test results indicated the image processing of the DR 600 passed the acceptance criteria and was equal to the image processing for the primary predicate, DR 800 (K183275) device for both adult and pediatric patients
Performance data including clinical image quality evaluations for adults and pediatric patients, performance/functionality and usability data are adequate to ensure equivalence.
Software Verification and Validation Testing
9
Verification and validation plans comprise of test protocols. The complete device has been certified and validated. During the final risk analysis meeting, the risk management team concluded that the medical risk is no greater than with conventional x-ray film previously released to the field.
Software verification testing for Digital TomoSynthesis (DTS) was completed in scope of the DR 600 system. Four software iterations were tested. including the tube head and XRDi. HERDE defects were identified; however, they were solved between test execution and the completion of the final report and will be part of the next maintenance software release.
For the NX22 (NX Nomad) software there are a total of 342 risks in the broadly acceptable region and 27 risks in the ALARP region with only one of these risks identified. Zero risks were identified in the Not Acceptable Region. Therefore, the device is assumed to be safe, the benefits of the device are assumed to outweigh the residual risk. The software risk assessment is assessed on solution level for the DR 600 and also includes separate risk assessments for the NX 22 software and XRDi.
The term "Level of Concern" means the level of risk that the software device is determined to be if the software were to fail. The Level of Concern for the DR 600 with Tomosynthesis and NX 22 has been determined to be moderate.

Summarv
Based on the performance data as documented in the above testing, the DR 600 with Tomosynthesis is found to have a safety and effectiveness profile that is similar to the predicate device.
VIII. CONCLUSIONS
Agfa's DR 600 with Tomosynthesis has indications for use that is consistent with that of the legally marketed predicate devices (K183275 & K152639). Intended uses are the same. Laboratory tests conclude that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicates. Differences in devices do not alter the intended diagnostic effect nor do they impact the safety and effectiveness of the device.
The new device and the DR 800 with Tomosynthesis primary predicate device (K183275) are tomographic x-ray systems, Product Code IZF. The new device and DR 600 predicate device (K152639) are solid state x-ray systems, Product Code MQB). Agfa's DR 600 with Tomosynthesis is substantially equivalent to both predicate devices (K183275 & K152639) in that it uses precisely the same technology to capture and transmit images.
This 510(k) has demonstrated Substantial Equivalence as defined and understood in the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act and various guidance documents issued by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health.
