Indicated for general radiographic examinations (excluding mammography) and general fluoroscopy, interventional fluoroscopy, or angiography procedures in patients requiring diagnostic X-ray imaging.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An image-intensified fluoroscopic x-ray system is a device intended to visualize anatomical structures by converting a pattern of x-radiation into a visible image through electronic amplification. 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). An anthrogram tray or radiology dental tray intended for use with an image-intensified fluoroscopic x-ray 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. In addition, when intended as an accessory to the device described in paragraph (a) of this section, the fluoroscopic compression device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

details difficult to see using conventional imaging techniques. Images can be stored locally for temporary storage. The i-TM Digital X-ray Imaging System has the ability to interface with a variety of image receptors from CCD cameras to commercially available flat panel detectors. The major system components include an image receptor, computer, monitor and imaging software.

For the DR application, the InfiMed ison Digital X-ray Imaging System is intended for use in general radiographic examinations and applications (excluding fluoroscopy, angiography, and mammography).

For the RF/DSA application, the InfiMed if TM Digital X-ray Imaging System is intended for use where general fluoroscopy, interventional fluoroscopy or angiography imaging procedures are performed.

#### Technological Characteristics Comparison:

The modified device supports the same modalities as the predicate device with the same components or imaging concepts, and delivers equivalent or better image quality as the predicate device. The comparison chart reveals that functions performed by the predicate device are performed by the modified is TM Digital X-ray Imaging System. The modified device, Nexus DRF Digital X-ray Imaging System (with PaxScan 4343CB), has the ability to interface with an additional image receptor, Varian PaxScan 4343CB. Therefore, the modified device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

## Non-clinical Tests Discussion:

Validation was completed in accordance with the Validation Protocols included with this submission. Protocols were designed, executed and documented according to the Design Validation process with predetermined test methods and corresponding acceptance criteria. In conclusion, all release criteria have been met and the modified if TM Digital Xray Imaging System is as safe and effective as the predicate device and does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.

#### Clinical Tests Discussion:

Clinical Data submitted is consistent with FDA guidance document "Guidance for Industry and/or for FDA Reviewers/Staff and/or Compliance: Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices" available at the website http://www.fda.gov/downloads/MedicalDevices/DeviceRegulationandGuidance/Guidanc eDocuments/ucm073781.pdf.

#### Conclusion:

Based upon the results of Verification and Validation testing, the Nexus DRF Digital Xray Imaging System (with PaxScan 4343CB) has no new indications for use, has no significant technological differences, and is as safe and effective as, does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness and is therefore substantially equivalent to the above listed current legally marketed predicate device.
