# 510(k) Summary
### Comparison with Predicate Devices 6.
The Intermed Zoom Colposcope, Accuscope(K913365), Wallach Zoom Colposcope(K853389) and LM1Z Zoom Scope(K902313) are intended for direct magnified viewing of the cervix, vagina, and external genitalia for the purpose of diagnosing abnormalities and selecting areas for biopsy.
The Intermed Zoom Colposcope and all of the aforementioned predicate devices utilize technologically similar, commercially available optical systems configured in a like manner in order provide the necessary working distance and magnification for patient observation. In addition, all devices utilize technologically similar 150watt halogen light sources with integrated green filters for subject illumination.
The "Table of Comparison with Predicate Devices" (pg F.1), demonstrates that the technological characteristics of the Intermed Zoom Colposcope and predicate devices are virtually the same. Non-clinical testing has demonstrated that any differences in technological characteristics, does not adversely affect the intended use, performance, or safety of the device. Therefore, the Intermed Zoom Colposcope is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
