No
The description mentions image processing for reconstruction but does not mention AI or ML algorithms.
No
The device is described as an imaging system used to verify excised tissue during biopsy procedures, not to treat a medical condition.
Yes
Explanation: The device is used to provide rapid verification that the correct tissue has been excised during the biopsy procedure. This involves evaluating the specimen for diagnostic purposes, in this case, confirming the presence of the correct tissue.
No
The device is a cabinet x-ray system, which is a hardware device that includes an x-ray tube, detector, and linear actuator, in addition to software for image processing.
Based on the provided information, the MOZART (XPERT42) device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease. The key is that the analysis is performed outside the living body (in vitro).
- MOZART's Function: The MOZART system is an X-ray imaging system. It uses X-rays to create images of harvested specimens. While it examines tissue specimens, the method of examination is through physical imaging (radiography), not through biochemical, immunological, or molecular analysis of the specimen's components.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "provide rapid verification that the correct tissue has been excised during the biopsy procedure." This is a form of anatomical verification through imaging, not a diagnostic test performed on the specimen itself to determine the presence of disease markers or other biological characteristics.
In summary, the MOZART is a medical imaging device used to visualize physical structures within a specimen, not a device that performs diagnostic tests on the biological or chemical properties of the specimen.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

Device Description
The MOZART Specimen Radiography System is a Cabinet X-ray System specifically designed to provide high detail radiographic imaging of surgically excised medical specimens both in two-dimensional and three-dimensional tomosynthesis views.
- It is the only cabinet specimen imaging system to utilize 3-D Tomosynthesis technology. ●
- Creates images in 1mm digital slices of the specimen, allowing physicians to evaluate the specimen layer by layer.
It has been clinically proven for the following:
- Provides more anatomical information than single planar 2-D imaging alone.
- . The subject x-ray cabinet system Kubtec Mozart Xpert 42 is not intended for mammography.
Tomosynthesis is an advanced radiographic application that produces individual coronal "slice" images through an anatomical region of inters (ROI). To produce these slices multiple projection radiographic images are acquired in rapid succession as the X-ray tube sweeps and rotates across the ROI. Once acquired, these projection images are subject to image processing that registers and reconstructs them into individual tomographic slices.
Tomosynthesis provides visualization of human anatomy by
- Removing overlying anatomical structures, which could otherwise obscure a structure of interest by 1. superimposition in a two dimensional presentation, and
- Producing a number of slice images throughout the entire volume of the anatomy 2.
The exceptionally high magnification capability (up to 5X) from the 0.02 mm focal spot with optimized cabinet geometry and the superior contrast available from the low kV capability provides enhanced film and/or digital imaging performance. This device supports radiographic film sizes up to 30 x 35 cm and can be configured to acquire high resolution, DICOM compliant, digital x-ray images through the use of an integrated camera and Kubtec DIGICOM Specimen Radiography software.
To support the Tomosynthesis application, the predicate device, MOZART (XPERT42), has a low-voltage screw drive linear actuator installed in the enclosed head of the cabinet with the same 50 kVp monoblock Xray tube as the predicate to allow motion of the X-ray source to capture the multiple projection images and an Amorphous Selenium detector mounted stationary in the bottom of the cabinet x-ray unit.
Mentions image processing
Yes, "Once acquired, these projection images are subject to image processing that registers and reconstructs them into individual tomographic slices." and "performing any post reconstruction processing on the 3D tomographic image and rendering said 3D tomographic image on a display."

The proposed and predicate devices utilize similar technology and materials, comparable safety and effectiveness features, and is similar in design and construction and introduces no new safety issues. The Kubtec MOZART is as safe and effective as the predicate device (XPERT 42), the technological differences amount to the changing from a CMOS Detector to an Amorphous Silicon Detector. The Indications for Use and labeling are virtually the same or similar and our labeling contain the required Cautions, Warnings and Contraindications consistent to those required for similar cleared devices. Both systems produce digital images which can be sent to hardcopy printers, softcopy diagnostic workstations and/or stored in archive.
To support the Tomosynthesis application, the proposed device, MOZART, utilizes the predicate device, XPERT 42, the same 50 kVp monoblock X-ray tube as the predicate to allow motion of the X-ray source to capture the multiple projection images and the Amorphous Silicon detector mounted stationary in the bottom , the same as the predicate CMOS detector, of the same shielded cabinet x-ray unit with proprietary software installed into an off the shelf personal computer, Microsoft Windows 10 Operating System, and a 2 megapixel or greater portrait type monitor.
The workstation on the MOZART utilizes a more powerful GPU to facilitate the handling of the collected projection data. It utilizes a method of dynamically reconstructing 3D tomographic images from a set of projections images. This includes loading the set of projection images into memory, selecting a region of interest, applying any necessary preprocessing, selecting a reconstruction method reconstructing an image according to said reconstruction method to produce a 3D tomographic image focusing on said region of interest, performing any post reconstruction processing on the 3D tomographic image and rendering said 3D tomographic image on a display. US Patent US 8,233,690 B2 displaying the complete algorithm and process is included.
Both the predicate and proposed systems utilize the same DIGICOM software.

V. CONCLUSION
This 510(k) premarket notification submission 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 Heal. We conclude the subject device to be as safe and effective as the predicate devices based upon the clinical and non-clinical data summarized above. The Kubtec proposed modified MOZART(XPERT42) is as safe and effective as the predicate device MOZART (XPERT42), the technological differences amount to the changing from a CMOS detector to an Amorphous Selenium. It has no new indications for use, thus rendering it substantially equivalent to the predicate device and conforms to applicable medical device safety standards.
