Intended Use
Planmeca Viso is a system intended to produce two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) digital X-ray images as well as three-dimensional (3D) optical images of the dento-maxillo-facial, cervical spine and ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) regions at the direction of healthcare professionals as diagnostic support for pediatric and adult patients.
Device Description
The Planmeca Viso -X-ray unit uses cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to produce three-dimensional (3D) images of the maxillofacial and ENT anatomies. Two dimensional (2D) images are produced with tomosynthesis method (panoramic) imaging) as well as conventional 2D radiography (cephalometric imaging, 2D views). In CBCT a cylindrical volume of data is captured in one imaging procedure. The data consists of several hundred sample images which are taken from different directions to cover a certain pre-programmed target area. These samples are used for 3D reconstruction (using a dedicated 3D reconstruction hardware) that can be viewed in three dimensions using separate workstation and Planmeca Romexis software.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION IV.

The Planmeca Viso -X-ray unit uses cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) to produce three-dimensional (3D) images of the maxillofacial and ENT anatomies. Two dimensional (2D) images are produced with tomosynthesis method (panoramic) imaging) as well as conventional 2D radiography (cephalometric imaging, 2D views). In CBCT a cylindrical volume of data is captured in one imaging procedure. The data consists of several hundred sample images which are taken from different directions to cover a certain pre-programmed target area. These samples are used for 3D reconstruction (using a dedicated 3D reconstruction hardware) that can be viewed in three dimensions using separate workstation and Planmeca Romexis software.

INDICATIONS FOR USE V.

Same as predicate device.

Planmeca Viso is a system intended to produce two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) digital x-ray images as well as three-dimensional (3D) optical images of the dentomaxillo-facial, cervical spine and ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) regions at the direction of healthcare professionals as diagnostic support for pediatric and adult patients.

VI. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE

General

Both devices are 3D CBCT imaging system indicated for imaging dento-maxillofacial-. cervical spine- and ENT-regions and offer a variety of 3D fields of view suitable for each application.

Both systems also provide 2D imaging capabilities for panoramic and cephalometric imaging. In general there are only a few changes in the device.

Integrated detector

The X-ray detectors used are of same size as previously. Viso G5 and ProCeph use new X-ray detectors with similar qualities as the predicate device. Only difference between Viso G7 predicate and subject devices is the interface. Predicate device uses proprietary interface, and subject device uses standard ethernet interface. This has some effects on the device hardware, namely the grabber PCB, which is being replaced with a commercial Nvidia Jetson Nano module and suitable interface PCB. Otherwise they are of similar qualities as before and the produced 3D images provide similar diagnostic value. See fig 2 for technical comparison between devices.

X-ray unit

The dimensions and materials are identical to the predicate device.

X-ray tube

A new x-ray tube has been introduced to the device. It is of similar quality as predicate devices' fixed anode x-ray tubes, and it has maximum tube voltage of 120kV. Previously used fixed anode x-ray tubes may also be used with this device. No other changes for the tube head. Predicate device #2 operates a similar tube manufactured by the same company, the only difference being the target angle and thus the heat characteristics. See fig 1 for technical comparison on X-ray tube properties.

The main measure of clinical performance for Planmeca Viso is determined to be image quality. This has been evaluated by the product relevant team of professionals who evaluated human phantom images which were determined to be suitable for the intended purpose and indications for use of the device. These results are substantially equivalent to the evaluation performed on primary predicate device.

AI Denoising feature of the endodontic image processing has been evaluated based on its ability to produce diagnostic image quality in its intended application. This was evaluated in a study performed by three dental professionals in a study conducted with eleven patients, by comparing images with no denoising and AI denoising.

Testing summary

The above testing confirms that Planmeca Viso is safe and effective in its intended use.

VIII. CONCLUSIONS

The performance data of the subject device and the predicate device is equal or close to equal. The performance testing provides data to back this similarity in the devices. The subject device performs equally or better in all the testing scenarios.

The IGZO technology is proven to bring improvements in electronic noise, image lag and noise-equivalent quanta. The IGZO technology has been used in several FDA approved devices at least since 2019.

The tube specifications regarding eg. focus size, anode angle and tube voltage are the same as previously approved Canon D-059SB X-ray tube. The OPX 105-10 X-ray tube is driven with the same hardware as our other previously approved X-ray tubes.

The comparison of characteristics supports substantial equivalence. Planmeca Viso is as safe and effective as the predicate device.
