This device is intended to be used in professional healthcare facilities or radiological environments, such as hospitals, clinics, imaging centers, and other medical practices by trained radiographers, radiologists, and physicists. Digital Tomosynthesis is used to synthesize tomographic slices from a single tomographic sweep. Applications can be performed with the patient in prone, supine, and lateral positions. This device is not intended for mammographic, cardiac, intra-cranial, interventional, or fluoroscopic applications. This device is not intended for imaging pediatric or neonatal patients.
Device Description
Nanox.ARC is a stationary, floor-mounted, stand-alone digital tomosynthesis system intended to produce tomographic images for general use including human musculoskeletal system, pulmonary, intra-abdominal, and paranasal sinus indications, from a single tomographic sweep. It serves as an adjunct to conventional radiography, for adult patients in recumbent positions. The system is intended for use in professional healthcare settings such as hospitals, clinics, and imaging centers by trained radiologists, and physicists. The Nanox.ARC includes a secured, dedicated off-the-shelf handheld operator console, a multisource, tiltable arc gantry with five identical tubes, a motorized patient table, and a flat panel detector type. The image reconstruction service and DICOMization services can be hosted either locally or as part of the secured Nanox.CLOUD, according to customer preference. Nanox.CLOUD also hosts a protocol database service package. The Nanox.ARC X-ray tubes are operated sequentially, one at a time, generating multiple low-dose images acquired from different angles, during a single sweep, dividing the overall power requirements among the tubes. The sweep is performed over a motorized patient table. Patients can be placed in prone, supine, and lateral positions. The acquired projection imaging data is anonymized and automatically reconstructed to form tomographic slices of the imaged object, with each slice parallel to the table plane. The Tomosynthesis reduces the effect of overlying structures and provides depth information on structures of interest. The resultant images are re-identified and sent using the DICOM protocol.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or related terms like deep learning or neural networks. The image reconstruction is described as "automatically reconstructed" but this does not necessarily imply AI/ML.

No
This device is an X-ray system intended to produce tomographic images for diagnostic purposes, not for treating a condition.

Yes

The device is intended to produce tomographic images and is described as generating "diagnostic-quality images" to evaluate abnormalities. This functionality directly supports diagnosis by providing visual information about internal structures.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as an X-ray system, gantry, patient table, and detector, indicating it is not solely software.

Based on the provided text, the Nanox.ARC device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Nanox.ARC Function: The Nanox.ARC is an X-ray system that produces images of the internal structures of the body. It does not perform tests on biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for producing tomographic images for diagnostic purposes based on imaging, not laboratory testing.

Therefore, the Nanox.ARC falls under the category of imaging devices, not IVDs.
