Indications for Use

The Imalux OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) Imaging System is intended to be used as an imaging tool in the evaluation of human tissue microstructure by providing two-dimensional, cross-sectional, real-time depth visualization.

Device Story

Imalux OCT Imaging System uses near-infrared (NIR) light to visualize human tissue microstructure. System comprises imaging console and detachable, flexible fiberoptic probe. NIR light from super luminescent diode (SLD) source travels through probe to tissue; backscattered light is collected and combined with internal reference signal. Spatial lateral scanning mechanism in probe enables acquisition of in-depth profiles at multiple lateral positions, constructing 2D cross-sectional images analogous to ultrasound B-scans. Console provides user interface for acquisition, display, and reporting; data exportable via Ethernet/USB. Used by clinicians to evaluate tissue microstructure. Higher spatial resolution than ultrasound but shallower imaging depth. Detachable probe facilitates sampling of various target tissues and reprocessing.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Safety and performance supported by compliance with EN/IEC 60601-1, EN/IEC 60601-1-2, EN/IEC 60825-1, AAMI/ANSI/ISO 10993-1, and AAMI/ANSI ST35 standards. Biocompatibility testing performed on probe distal tip materials.

Technological Characteristics

NIR light source (super luminescent diode); fiberoptic delivery system with detachable probe; spatial lateral scanning mechanism; Ethernet/USB connectivity; biocompatible probe tip materials (AAMI/ANSI/ISO 10993-1); electrical safety (EN/IEC 60601-1, 60601-1-2, 60825-1).

Indications for Use

Indicated for the evaluation of human tissue microstructure, specifically skin and mucosal membranes, via two-dimensional, cross-sectional, real-time depth visualization.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system is a device intended to project a pulsed sound beam into body tissue to determine the depth or location of the tissue interfaces and to measure the duration of an acoustic pulse from the transmitter to the tissue interface and back to the receiver. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A biopsy needle guide kit intended for use with an ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system only 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 D.

#### 1. Summary

The Imalux OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) Imaging System utilizes near infrared (NIR) light to create high spatial resolution, real-time images near infrared (1127) be Imalux OCT Imaging System consists of an Imaging Console and a detachable, flexible fiberoptic Probe. The Imaging Console Console and a detailsptical and electrical components and a user interface system. The user interface system includes a keyboard, display, and standard Ethernet and USB ports for image data transfer.

As various tissue structural elements absorb, reflect, and scatter light As various NIR light that is backscattered from the tissue is collected and analyzed to present an image of the tissue microstructure. By analyzing andly200 to probesity as a function of tissue depth, over a lateral surface, a 2-dimensional image is constructed.

At any one lateral position, the in-depth OCT image is analogous to an At any one accrar presents backscattering intensity as a function of depth. By combining the in-depth scanning with lateral movement of the depth. Dy connemional image is created that is analogous to that of ultrasound B-scan, except that OCT uses light in lieu of sound waves. By using light instead of sound, the Imalux OCT Imaging System can achieve higher spatial resolution, but to a more shallow imaging depth, than ultrasound imaging since light is more readily attenuated in the tissue.

### Design 2.

The Scanner contains optical and electrical components, including a super luminescent diode (SLD) light source. The NIR light is directed from the Scanner through the Probe's optical fiber to the patient's tissue. The optical light is backscattered from the patient's tissue, collected by the Probe's fiber, and, combined with an internal reference signal, to produce a high spatial resolution image of the superficial tissue microstructure. By using a spatial lateral scanning mechanism contained within the probe, the optical Strain scans laterally across the tissue surface while simultaneously acquiring an in-depth profile at each lateral position. By combining inacquiring an in-depth profits at cash internet System produces a two-dimensional cross-sectional image of the tissue microstructure.

The Imaging Console has a user interface for acquiring, displaying, and reporting images. Image data is stored onto the system and can be exported via Ethernet or USB data ports on the console.

#### 3. Materials

The external materials of the Probe distal tip are commonly used medical device materials and have been evaluated for biocompatibility. This evaluation, supported with biocompatibility testing, has demonstrated that these materials are safe for the Probe's intended use.

# Intended Use E.

The Imalux OCT (Optical Coherence Tomography) Imaging System is intended to be used as an imaging tool in the evaluation of human tissue microstructure by providing two-dimensional, cross-sectional, real-time denth visualization.

While the Humphrey's indication is for ocular use, imaging of sensitive eye tissue, the Imalux OCT Imaging System is indicated for use on tissue types such as skin and mucosal membranes. While the indications are different, the indications for the Imalux OCT device and the Humphrey OCT device are both within the same intended use and a comparison of their respective technologies and functional characteristics shows that the Imalux device is at least as safe and effective as the Humphrey device for this intended use.

# Safety & Performance F.

To assure the safety of the device, the System has been tested to and complies with the standards listed below:

> EN / IEC 60601-1 EN / IEC 60601-1-2 EN / IEC 60825-1 AAMI / ANSI / ISO 10993-1 AAMI / ANSI ST35

The Imalux OCT Imaging System is substantially equivalent to the Humphrey OCT Scanner as both devices employ the same technology, Optical Coherence Tomography, and have the same intended use of revealing tissue structural information by providing two-dimensional, crosssectional, real-time depth visualization.

Both the Imalux OCT Imaging System and the Humphrey OCT Scanner employ NIR light that is transported through a fiberoptic connection. The Imalux device uses a detachable, fiberoptic Probe that facilitates the transport of NIR light between the Imaging Console and the patient tissue; whereas, the Humphrey OCT Scanner has a fiberoptic imaging head that is connected to the console. By using a detachable, fiberoptic Probe, the

{3}------------------------------------------------

Imalux device can acquire images from different target tissues and facilitate reprocessing; whereas, the Humphrey device requires that the patient be positioned in close proximity to the imaging head, a design which is compatible for the device's indication for scanning ocular tissue. The Imalux device permits tissue image sampling, consistent with its indication for use, while employing the same fundamental OCT technological characteristics.
