Intended Use

The LaserPro 16 Laser Film Digitizer is intended to be used in a Radiological Laboratory or Doctors office to read and digitize gray scale images from conventional x-rays for transmission to PC computer. The receiving computer allows the technician to add patient identification, review the x-ray at various rotations and options and compress the image using industry accepted techniques to an average file size of less than one megabyte. Compressed images are encapsulated in DICOM (Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine) format, which then may be transmitted via various communication protocols to other sites or archived by a PACS host.

Device Story

The eRadLink LaserPro 16 is a desktop laser film digitizer that converts conventional radiographic film into 16-bit digital grayscale images. The device uses a laser beam light source and a sealed optic path to scan film (2 to 14 inches wide; up to 52 inches long) driven by a clocked stepping motor. The system outputs digital data in DICOM format to a host PC. Operated by technicians in radiological labs or clinics, the device allows for patient ID entry, image rotation, and compression (JPEG/Wavelet) on the host computer. The digitized images facilitate remote transmission and archiving via PACS, enabling healthcare providers to review x-rays digitally, potentially improving workflow efficiency and image accessibility.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance was validated using Stoeffer T4110 gray-scale strips, linearity test patterns, and typical x-ray film samples to demonstrate conformance to specifications. No clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

Desktop laser digitizer; solid-state 35mW laser; fiber optic beam scan; 16-bit grayscale output; 116um spot size; 0.0-4.1 OD dynamic range. Connectivity via USB or Ethernet. Power: 85-264VAC. Compliant with UL260, CSA 22.2, TUV, IEC 601-1, and CISPR 11 Class B. Software supports DICOM, JPEG, and Wavelet compression.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use in radiological laboratories or doctors' offices to digitize conventional x-ray film for transmission to a PC, subsequent network transmission, or PACS archiving. No specific patient population or contraindications provided.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A medical image digitizer is a device intended to convert an analog medical image into a digital format. Examples include systems employing video frame grabbers, and scanners which use lasers or charge-coupled devices.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls; voluntary standards—Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Std., Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) Std.). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

### DEVICE DESCRIPTION: (4)

The eRadLink LaserPro 16 is a digitizing scanner that converts radiographic film transparency images to digital format. This is accomplished by utilizing a laser beam light source and a proprietary sealed optic path. There are no internal lenses, mirrors, or electro-optic devices. The new technology provides superior image quality, requires no internal optics cleaning, no optical alignment and is inherently highly accurate and reliable.

Film, from a minimum of 2 inches to a maximum of 14 inches in width and, from a minimum of 2 inches to a maximum of over 52 inches in length is driven passed the scanning laser beam by a clocked, stepping motor. Scanned data is electronically converted from analog to 16 bit digital gray scale and transmitted to the host computer in DICOM format.
