No
The summary describes a device that converts analog x-ray films to digital data, which is a standard digitization process. There is no mention of AI, ML, or advanced image processing techniques that would suggest the use of such technologies.

No
The device is described as an x-ray film digitizer used to convert analog x-ray films into digital data, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one.

No
The device is described as an "x-ray film digitizer" which converts analog x-ray films into digital data. Its "Intended Use / Indications for Use" is "producing digital copies of medical x-ray films." This describes a device for digitizing images, not for diagnosing medical conditions. Diagnosis typically involves interpreting images or test results, which this device does not do.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "electronic device" that converts analog films to digital data, indicating it includes hardware components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to produce digital copies of medical x-ray films. This is a process of converting an existing image format (analog film) into a digital format. It does not involve analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to diagnose a disease or condition.
  • Device Description: The device description confirms it converts analog x-ray films to digital data. This is an imaging processing task, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description lacks any mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, assays, or any other elements typically associated with IVD devices.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. This device's function is solely related to the digitization of existing medical images.

Dear Ms. Drinkard:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
