The summary focuses on the physical characteristics, performance standards, and existing FDA-cleared components (digital panels and software) of a mobile x-ray system. There is no mention of AI, ML, deep learning, or any related concepts in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.
No
The device is described as an x-ray imager for diagnostic purposes, not for treatment.
Yes
The device performs "radiographic x-ray examinations," which is a diagnostic imaging procedure. Additionally, the device's compliance with "US Performance Standard for Diagnostic X-Ray Systems: 21 CFR 1020.30 AND 21 CFR 1020.31" directly labels it as a diagnostic x-ray system.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical, mobile x-ray system with hardware components like a generator, imager, battery, and physical structure, not solely software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "perform radiographic x-ray examinations on pediatric and adult patients treatment areas." This describes an imaging device used on the patient, not a device used to examine specimens from the patient.
- Device Description: The description details a mobile x-ray imager, focusing on its physical characteristics and capabilities for taking x-ray images.
- Input Imaging Modality: The input modality is "radiographic x-ray," which is a form of medical imaging performed on the body.
- Lack of IVD characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any of the typical components or processes associated with in vitro diagnostics.
This device is clearly a medical imaging device used for diagnostic purposes in vivo (within the living body), not in vitro (in glass, or outside the body).

Summary of Performance Studies
Summary of non-clinical testing: Systems covering all generator/panel combinations were assembled and tested and found to be operating properly. Software was validated according to the FDA Guidance: Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices Document issued on: May 11, 2005. Because the system uses Wi-Fi and Ethernet, we observed the recommendations contained in the FDA Guidance Document: Content of Premarket Submissions for Management of Cybersecurity in Medical Devices Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff Document Issued on: October 2, 2014. The digital panel software employed was already reviewed by FDA. Labeling was developed and information provided in accordance with this FDA Guidance Document: Pediatric Information for X-ray Imaging Device Premarket Notifications, Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff, November 2017. Labeling also includes reference to the Image Gently website (http://www.imageqently.org/). Because the device contains wireless technology, we consulted Radio Frequency Wireless Technology in Medical Devices - Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, AUGUST 2013 and we incorporated those recommendations into our labeling.
Summary of clinical testing: Clinical testing was not required to establish substantial equivalence because all digital x-ray receptor panels have had previous FDA clearance.
