Intended Use

GXR-Series Diagnostic X-Ray System, is a stationary X-ray imaging system, for the purpose of acquiring X-ray images of the desired parts of a patient's anatomy. This device is not intended for mammography or bone density applications.

Device Description

GXR Series Diagnostic X-ray System is a digital radiographic system. There are 5 power output configurations which are reflected in the model's designation "GXR-XX". The models have 5 different output power ratings: 32kW, 40kW, 52kW, 68kW, 82kW. The subject device, GXR Series Diaqnostic X-ray System, is designed to diagnose the human body by providing radiographic x-ray image with anatomical structure. The subject device has the same x-ray hardware components and image management software as the predicate device. The subject device consists of a high voltage (HV) generator, a tube support unit, an X-ray beam limiting device, a patient table, wall Bucky stand, and an x-ray tube, that operates on a high-frequency inverter method. The operator control console is designed to be user-friendly, and the user can select or change x-ray parameters easily using a large graphic LCD panel display and a soft membrane switch. The GXR Series high frequency X-ray generator (manufactured by DRGEM) features accuracy, reproducibility and long-term stability with capacitor assisted general line power supply. The APR (Anatomical Programming) and the optional AEC (Automatic Exposure Control) features gives the user control of exposure factors, automatically optimized for the radiological study selected. The digital flat panel detectors provide spatial resolution, MTF, DQE and stability based on fine pixel pitch. Selection of an anatomical study on the imaging software automatically sets up the x-ray generator's pre-programmed exposure technique setting and post image processing for selected study. The subject device is able to use a total of 10 different digital detectors, (8 new plus 2 cleared in the predicate, which have been previously cleared by the 510(k) process. The GXR Series Diagnostic X-ray System consists of a combination of an x-ray generator. and associated equipment such as tube stand, patient table, and, digital imaging system. The main power cabinet contains the HT tank and control circuits, the filament drivers, the low speed starter, and interface connections to the room equipment. Tube stand and patient table allows the operator to position the patient. Full Featured Imaging Software & Digital Image Processing. Control console. The image manaqement software, RADMAX Digital Imaging Software (K182537) by DRGEM, is used in both the predicate and subject device to serve as a convenient interface to the hardware and images. Anatomical view-based digital image processing automatically optimizes and enhances the quality of the captured images. RADMAX (K182537) Digital Imaging Software is designed for acquiring images and processing the acquired images. The software can be used together with a digital X-ray detector and or an X-Ray generator. The main features of the RADMAX software are controlling and interfacing the detector, acquiring images after X-ray, storing acquired images, managing data, and image processing. It can also perform system control such as the collimation size, and filter selection.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the "GXR-Series Diagnostic X-Ray System." This submission aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device, not to evaluate the performance of an AI algorithm with specific acceptance criteria that are typically statistical (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, AUC).

Therefore, based on the provided document, I cannot fulfill your request for:

  • A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance (related to AI algorithm statistical performance).
  • Sample size used for the test set and data provenance.
  • Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and their qualifications.
  • Adjudication method.
  • If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done.
  • If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done.
  • The type of ground truth used.
  • The sample size for the training set.
  • How the ground truth for the training set was established.

The document focuses on the device itself (an X-ray system), not an AI algorithm for image analysis. The "Performance Data" section describes nonclinical testing for general safety and effectiveness of the X-ray system as a whole, ensuring it meets standards for medical electrical equipment, radiation protection, and software lifecycle, and performs comparably to the predicate device. The only "difference" highlighted is the ability to interface with additional previously cleared digital flat panel detectors.

§ 892.1680 Stationary x-ray system.

(a)
Identification. A stationary x-ray system is a permanently installed diagnostic system intended to generate and control x-rays for examination of various anatomical regions. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A radiographic contrast tray or radiology diagnostic kit intended for use with a stationary x-ray system only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.
