Intended Use
VixWin Platinum is a software program for general dental and maxillofacial diagnostic imaging. It controls capture, display, enhancement, and saving of digital images from various digital imaging systems. It stores and communicates these images within the system or across computer systems at distributed locations.
Device Story
VixWin Platinum is a software-only dental imaging system; operates on standard PCs running Windows OS. Inputs include digital X-ray images from intraoral/extraoral sensors, PSP scanners, and color images from dental cameras. Software controls image capture, display, enhancement, and storage; manages patient databases locally or across networked workstations. Clinicians use the software to view and process images to aid diagnostic assessment; enhances diagnostic value of images through dental-specific tools. Benefits include streamlined image management, improved diagnostic visualization, and efficient data sharing across clinical environments.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Verification and validation testing demonstrated that VixWin Platinum functions equivalently to the predicate device (K060178). No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Software-only device; runs on Windows-based PCs (Windows XP through Windows 8). Supports network connectivity for database sharing and image communication. Compatible with various digital imaging systems (sensors, PSP scanners, cameras). No hardware components; no specific safety standards applicable beyond software validation.
Indications for Use
Indicated for general dental and maxillofacial diagnostic imaging. Used by trained and qualified dentists or dental technicians for capturing, displaying, enhancing, storing, and communicating digital images.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.

{5}------------------------------------------------
VixWin Platinum Software has the following functionality which compares with the functionality provided for VixWin PRO predicate cleared under K060178. The functionality has been updated to remove legacy hardware no longer supported by the VixWin Platinum Software.
- Controls scanning and intake of x-ray images from imaging plates with the Photo-Stimulable ● Phosphor (PSP) scanners.
- Controls the direct capture of x-ray images from intra-oral sensors and extra-oral systems. ●
- Allows View and capture color images from intra-oral and extra-oral cameras. ●
- . Export and import digital images (such as those obtained by scanning a film).
- . Process images with dental specific tools to enhance their diagnostic value.
- . Analyze and enhance images to gather additional diagnostic information which may not be immediately apparent on initial visual inspection.
- Obtaining and storing patient data pertaining to those images
- Both the viewing of the images and storage of the images and their associated data. ●
- Managing (locally and remotely) a database of patients and related data.
- Allows the update of existing patient information and the creation and storage of new patient information in a database over the network.
- . Allows access to patient files from multiple workstations via network connectivity.
- . Allows printing images and image related information over the network.
VixWin Platinum can be utilized either locally or over a networked environment. If VixWin Platinum is installed on several computers, the patient and image database can be shared among them and used from different workstations.
### Substantial Equivalence
The VixWin Platinum Software with the new proposed Indications for Use described in this submission is substantially equivalent to the VixWin PRO software cleared under K0610178 and satisfy all criteria of substantial equivalence based upon the above comparisons in the sections and do not raise new concerns in safety and effectiveness: (1) Indications for Use, (2) Technological Characteristics, and (3) Theory of Operations. The new device does not introduce a fundamentally new scientific technology and the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the device is safe and effective. All internal verification and validation has been completed.
## Performance Data
The current version of VixWin Platinum performs equivalently in functionality as the cleared Vix Win PRO (K060178). Performance data (Verification and Validation) demonstrate that VixWin Platinum functions equivalently to the predicate devices. Thus, the Vix Win Platinum (proposed) is substantially equivalent to the cleared VixWin PRO (K060178).
