Intended Use
Intended for use by a qualified/trained physician or technician on both adult and pediatric subjects for taking diagnostic x-rays. Not for mammography.
Device Story
AcuityDRe is a digital x-ray system upgrade kit comprising digital radiography panels and software; designed to integrate with user-supplied diagnostic x-ray generators, tubeheads, and mounts. The system captures x-ray signals via digital receptor panels (wireless or tethered); processes data through an acquisition workstation (Windows 10-IoT PC); and produces diagnostic images for clinical review. Operated by physicians or technicians in clinical settings. The system facilitates diagnostic imaging; output images assist clinicians in diagnostic decision-making. Benefits include digital image acquisition and integration with existing x-ray infrastructure.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical trials were required. Bench testing included performance evaluation of digital receptor panels (DQE and MTF metrics) and safety testing per IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2. Clinical image evaluation was performed by a board-certified radiologist to confirm image quality; images were rated as excellent.
Technological Characteristics
Digital x-ray upgrade kit including wireless/tethered receptor panels and acquisition software. Panels utilize solid-state technology. Connectivity via standard Wi-Fi (FCC-approved components) or tethered connection. Operates on Windows 10-IoT PC. Complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, and DICOM standards. Software provides control for specific CPI and Sedecal x-ray generators.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult and pediatric patients requiring diagnostic x-ray imaging. Contraindicated for mammography.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

Dear Mr. Kamm:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

The digital panel software employed was used unmodified from FDA. The software has been validated as a control for CPI and Sedecal diagnostic x-ray generators. Compatible CPI generators: CMP 200 Series. Compatible Sedecal generators: SFHR and SHF Series.
In recognition of possible cybersecurity threats to the software, we consulted this guidance: Content of Premarket Submissions for Manaqement of Cybersecurity in Medical Devices Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff October 2014. As a result, we updated our own internal standard operating procedures and added cybersecurity precautions to the software users' manuals.
In recognition of FDA pediatric concerns, we reviewed the FDA guidance: Pediatric Information for X-ray Imaging Device Premarket Notifications Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff and created labeling to comply with this guidance.
In recognition of FDA's concerns about wireless performance we reviewed the FDA guidance: Radio Frequency Wireless Technology in Medical Devices Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff. Both the predicate and subject devices use the same wireless technology, standard Wi-Fi using FCC approved off the shelf components.
Since the three new digital receptor panels have not had previous FDA clearance, testing was performed according to the FDA guidance document: Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices, Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff. Clinical image evaluation was performed on the proposed new panels by a Board Certified Radiologist. The images were found to be of excellent quality. Performance characteristics are as follows:
DQE @ 1.0 lp/mm: 0.35; MTF @ 2.0 lp/mm: 0.31 AcuityDRe 1417w:
AcuityDRe 1717w: DQE @ 1.0 lp/mm: 0.42; MTF @ 2.0 lp/mm: 0.38
AcuityDRe 1717t: DQE @ 1.0 lp/mm: 0.42; MTF @ 2.0 lp/mm: 0.38
All proposed compatible generators carry NRTL listing labels, having been tested for safety. Validation of proper generator technique control had been previously performed.
Each system is tested for proper integration prior to the customer. Since multiple configurations are available (generator and panel models), our service engineers fully test each new system upon installation at the customer site
6. Clinical testing. Not required for a determination of substantial equivalence.
### 7. Substantial Equivalence Discussion.
When combined with a compatible generator/Tubestand combination the AcuityDRe performs the same functions as the predicate using the same technological methods to produce diagnostic x-ray images. In all material aspects, the Accuvue+ and the AcuityDRe systems are substantially equivalent to each other.
### 8. Substantial Equivalence Conclusion:
After analyzing bench test results, risk analysis, and clinical evaluation, it is the conclusion of RadmediX LLC that the AcuityDRe series of upgrade kits are as safe and effective as the predicate device, has few technological differences, and has the same indications for use, thus rendering it substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
