Intended Use
R2GATE is intended for use as a software interface and image segmentation system for the transfer of imaging information from a CBCT scanner. It is also intended as pre-planning software for dental implant placement and surgical treatment.
Device Story
R2GATE is a web and desktop-based software application used by licensed dentists for pre-operative dental implant planning. It ingests CBCT scan data (DICOM) and 3D surface models (STL files). The software provides tools for image segmentation, nerve canal tracing, and 2D/3D visualization (axial, coronal, sagittal, cross-section, panorama). Dentists use the interface to manipulate and position virtual dental implants from a pre-loaded library, perform cephalometric analysis, and measure anatomical dimensions. The output consists of treatment plans and STL files compatible with 3D printers or milling machines for surgical guide fabrication. By enabling precise virtual placement and visualization of anatomical structures, the device assists clinicians in treatment evaluation and surgical planning, potentially improving implant placement accuracy and patient outcomes.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Validation included verification of CBCT data integrity (DICOM), comparison of physical measurements (distance/angle) against the predicate, and precision measurement of STL-based surgical guide models. All results met acceptance criteria.
Technological Characteristics
Web and desktop application (Windows OS). Programming languages: C#, C++. Functions include image segmentation, 2D/3D visualization, nerve canal tracing, and implant library management. Connectivity: imports DICOM and STL files; exports STL for CAM/3D printing. Software-based image processing and measurement tools.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use as a software interface and image segmentation system for transferring CBCT imaging data and as pre-planning software for dental implant placement and surgical treatment in patients requiring dental implant procedures.
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.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls; voluntary standards—Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Std., Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) Std., Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) Test Pattern).

### Analysis of differences
The proposed device has similar indications for use and mostly same basic functionalities in comparison with the predicate device. The functions, view, and module for both the subject and predicate device are used for review of radiographic images, creation of a dental treatment plan and implant surgical guide. The differences include the proposed implant devices that each program depends on. For an implant surgical guide and treatment simulation, R2GATE utilizes a pre-loaded implant device library featuring MEGAGEN IMPLANT family whereas Blue Sky Bio may have different implant library other than MEGAGEN Implant.
## 7. Software testing
Software verification and validation was conducted to ensure the functionality and compatibility of all system components and to support the safety and effectiveness of the proposed devices.
The verification and validation tests consist of the following activities:
- Unit test
- . Peer Code Review
- Integration test ●
- Internal release test
- Formal system test
- . Acceptance test
Verification and validation tests confirm that all user needs and SW performance requirements are fulfilled according to the design input.
Also the following comparison tests confirm the functionality, safety and efficacy of the proposed devices.
#### 8. Non-Clinical Performance Data
Non-clinical tests have been developed in-house including acceptance criteria. The test results demonstrated substantial equivalence between the subject device and the predicate device. (Document No: R2W-D34-PER-001)
(i) Validation of CBCT data (DICOM Image Data): Physical measurement values and numerical values (Hounsfield unit, HU) of distance and angle between specific points of CBCT data of R2GATE Windows and Blue Sky Plan Software. The distance and angle value between the Blue Sky Plan and R2GATE Windows were measured within the acceptable range
(ii) Verification of integrity of CBCT data (DICOM Image Data): Experiments on modification of CBCT data of R2GATE Windows and Blue Sky Plan Software. There is no modification or conversion of the DICOM file between the Blue Sky Plan and R2GATE Windows.
(iii) Verification of the surgical guide model of the dental implant procedure using the STL file. The degree of bonding or precision measurement between the design file and the actual structure were reviewed and compared., The differences were within the acceptable range.
{7}------------------------------------------------
The test results met the acceptance criteria and demonstrated equivalence between the subject and predicate device.
## 9. Conclusion Regarding Substantial Equivalence
The R2GATE has similar indications for use and incorporate the same fundamental functions, views and module as the predicate device Blue Sky Bio Plan cleared under premarket notification K090607. The performance test for both the subject and the predicate device has been conducted and the test outcome support substantial equivalence between R2GATE and Blue Sky Bio Plan without raising any new issues of safety or effectiveness.
