No
The summary describes a standard mobile fluoroscopy system with image processing capabilities, but there is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like deep learning, neural networks, or training/test sets for such algorithms.
No
The device is described as providing medical imaging to assist clinical outcomes during diagnostic, interventional, or surgical procedures, not to directly treat a disease or condition.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states that the device is used for "diagnostic, interventional and surgical procedures" and that "The visualization of such anatomical structures assists the clinical outcome." This indicates its role in diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as a mobile stand, C-Profile shaped support, mono-block high voltage generator assembly, Flat Panel image receptor, user touch screen, and display monitors. While it includes software functions, it is fundamentally a hardware system with integrated software.
Based on the provided information, the Ziehm Vision FD is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for providing medical imaging using fluoroscopy to visualize anatomical structures during diagnostic, interventional, and surgical procedures. This is an in-vivo imaging function, not an in-vitro test performed on biological samples outside the body.
- Device Description: The description details a mobile fluoroscopy system with an X-ray generator and image receptor, designed to capture images of the patient's anatomy directly. This aligns with in-vivo imaging.
- Input Imaging Modality: The input modality is fluoroscopic X-ray, which is used for imaging within the body.
- Anatomical Site: The device is used to visualize anatomical structures within the human body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to test biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to detect the presence of specific substances or markers in those samples, which are hallmarks of IVD devices.
Therefore, the Ziehm Vision FD is a medical imaging device used for in-vivo procedures, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Ziehm Vision FD is intended for use in providing medical imaging for adults and pediatric populations, using pulsed and continuous fluoroscopic imaging. The device provides contactless fluoroscopic image capture, temporarily storing, and display of digital subtraction, and acquisition of cine loops during diagnostic, interventional and surgical procedures. Examples of clinical application may include pediatric, cholangiography, endoscopic, urologic, lithotripsy, orthopedic, neurologic, vascular, cardiac, angiographic, critical care, and emergency room fluoroscopy procedures. The visualization of such anatomical structures assists the clinician in the clinical outcome. This device does not support direct radiographic film exposures and is not intended for use in performing mammography. The system is not intended for use near MRI systems.

Device Description
The Ziehm Vision FD mobile fluoroscopy system is comprised of a mobile stand with a C-Profile shaped support with both a mono-block high voltage generator assembly and Flat Panel image receptor. These attach to either end of a C-Profile providing a fixed SID. The device performs 2D medical imaging using 4 axes of manual movement and one vertical axes of motorized movement. A user touch screen provides for concise user selectable anatomical programs and Xray technique control. Integrated high-resolution flat panel display monitors directly mounted on the monitor cart providing the clinician with a precise angle for visualization of live fluoroscopic images of the patient's anatomy. This visualization helps to localize regions of pathology for surgical procedures. The mobile stand supports both a cable bound and optional wireless fluoroscopic footswitch. The Wireless footswitch operation allows for optimum positioning for the surgeon by removing the cable on the floor. The optional interface panel of the Ziehm Vision FD provides connection of peripheral devices such as external monitors, thermal video printers, and image storage devices (USB, DVD) and DICOM fixed wire and wireless network interfaces.

The performance testing confirmed that the modified Ziehm Vision FD complies with 21 CFR 1020.30-32 Federal Performance Standards for X-Ray Fluoroscopic equipment and with relevant safety standards such as IEC 60601-1-3, IEC 60601-2-43, IEC 60601-2-54.
Non-clinical image comparison with sets of images with the modified device and the predicate shows equivalence regarding image quality.
With reqard to the flat panel detector (SSXI), documentation provided in this submission demonstrates compliance of the modified device Ziehm Vision FD to "Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices".
Furthermore, an assessment regarding the low dose functionality of the modified Ziehm Vision FD shows the ability to reduce dose for certain applications.
Software testing was performed as required by "Content of Premarket Submissions for Device Software Functions". Cybersecurity remains exactly the same as in the predicate device.
Determination of The verification/validation activities successfully confirmed device requirements Substantial Equivalence: have been fulfilled, system functionality is consistent with the user needs, intended uses, and performs as designed, and raises no new questions regarding either safety or effectiveness.
Therefore, Ziehm Imaqing GmbH believes the modified device Ziehm Vision FD C-arm image quality, safety and effectiveness supports a determination of substantial equivalence to the predicate device Ziehm Vision FD (K193230).
