Intended Use

The Carestream DRX-1 System is intended to capture for display radiographic images of human anatomy. It is intended for use in general projection radiographic applications wherever conventional screen-film systems or CR systems may be used. Excluded from the indications for use are mammography, fluoroscopy, tomography and angiography applications.

Device Story

Digital imaging system for general projection radiography; captures X-ray images of human anatomy. Components: flat panel digital detector, operator console, and generator interface box. Detector captures X-ray projections, converting them to digital images; communicates via tethered or wireless connection to console. Used in clinical settings; operated by radiology staff. System displays images on preview monitor; supports transmission through digital network for diagnostic viewing and printing. Replaces conventional screen-film or CR systems; provides softcopy images for electronic review, enhancing workflow efficiency and diagnostic capability.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical testing compared the Carestream DRX-1 System to the Kodak DirectView CR 850 System. Results showed no significant differences in clinical acceptance or diagnostic capability between the two systems.

Technological Characteristics

Digital radiographic imaging system; flat panel digital detector; tethered or wireless connectivity. Complies with ISO 13485 and 21 CFR Part 820. Evaluated for product safety and electromagnetic compatibility per international safety standards.

Indications for Use

Indicated for general projection radiographic imaging of human anatomy. Excludes mammography, fluoroscopy, tomography, and angiography.

Regulatory Classification

It includes a Carestream DRX-1 System Detector (flat panel digital detector), Carestream DRX-1 System Console (operator console) and Carestream DRX-1 System Interface Box (generator interface or Interface Box). Images captured with the flat panel digital detector can be communicated to the operator console via tethered connection or wireless. - The Carestream DRX-1 System is intended to capture for display radiographic images of Indications for Use: human anatomy. It is intended for use in general projection radiographic applications wherever conventional screen-film systems or CR systems may be used. Excluded from the indications for use are mammography, fluoroscopy, tomography and angiography applications. Comparison with Predicate Device: The Kodak DirectView CR 850 System (CR 850) and the Carestream DRX-1 System are digital imaging systems. Each device is used to acquire radiographic images digitally. The CR 850 system and the Carestream DRX-1 System, both, differ from traditional X-ray film systems in that instead of exposing a film for subsequent wet chemical processing to create a hardcopy image for viewing, a digital image is used to display and reviewing in electronic form. The digital data are then used to produce softcopy images to be sent to a hardcopy printing device or archive device. The CR 850 System reads the x-ray image captured on stimulated phosphor screens and converts it to a digital image. The Carestream DRX-1 System Detector is used to directly capture and conventional projected X-ray images to digital images. An image can be displayed on a preview monitor for viewing on both devices. The diagnostic image can be transmitted through a digital network for diagnostic viewing and printing using both devices. Summary of Evaluation: Performance testing was conducted to verify the design input requirements and to validate the Carestream DRX-1 System conformed to the defined user needs and intended uses. Non-clinical testing was conducted use conditions. Predefined acceptance criteria was met and demonstrated that the Carestream DRX-1 System is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the predicate device. The Carestream DRX-1 System has been evaluated for product safety, electromagnetic compatibility and radiation safety. It conforms to applicable medical device safety standards. {1}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/1/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Carestream Health.

K090318 Page 2 of 2 Attachment 9 Clinical Testing: Results of clinical testing demonstrated there were no significant differences observed between the Kodak DirectView CR 850 System and Carestream DRX-1 System with respect to clinical acceptance or the ability to diagnose. - Conclusion: The Carestream DRX-1 System is designed and will be manufactured in compliance with ISO 13485, the Quality System Regulations for Medical Devices and 21 CFR Part 820. The Carestream DRX-1 System is in conformance with applicable international and national safety standards. Based on the results of the clinical and bench testing, product comparison, product safety and electromagnetic compatibility testing, Carestream Health, Inc. concludes that the Carestream DRX-1 System is substantially equivalent to the current Kodak DirectView CR 850 System. {2}------------------------------------------------ Public Health Service Food and Drug Administration 10903 New Hampshire Avenue Document Control Room - WO66-G609 Silver Spring, MD 20993-0002 Ms. Christine Ehmann Regulatory Affairs Manager Carestream Health.
