The summary describes basic image processing functions (rotate, flip, pan, zoom, brightness, contrast, smooth, inverse) which are standard digital imaging capabilities and do not indicate the use of AI/ML. There is no mention of AI, ML, deep learning, or any related concepts in the document.
No
The device is described as an X-ray imaging system for diagnosis, not for treating any conditions.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the devices are intended for "diagnostic use by dentists."
No
The device description explicitly states that the device is a "Dental Sensor" which is a hardware component that converts x-ray photons into electronic impulses. The software is described as an "intra-oral software application" that works with the sensor, but the sensor itself is a physical medical device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used to "collect dental x-ray photons and convert them into electronic impulses that may be stored, viewed, and manipulated for diagnostic use by dentists." This describes an imaging device used to capture images of the oral cavity, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body.
- Device Description: The description focuses on the technical aspects of converting X-rays to digital images and the software for image processing. This aligns with an imaging system, not an IVD.
- Input Imaging Modality: The input is "dental x-ray," which is an imaging modality, not a biological specimen.
- Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is "oral mucosa," which is the area being imaged, not the source of a specimen for in vitro testing.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment. This device operates in vivo (within the body) by capturing images of the oral cavity using X-rays.
