Intended Use
EzRay M18 (Model: VMX-P400) is a portable X-ray system, intended for use by a qualified/trained physician or technician to acquire X-ray images of the desired parts of a patient's anatomy on adult and pediatric patients (including head, chest, abdomen, cervical spine, and extremities). The device may be used for handheld diagnostic imaging of body extremities. The system is subject to the following limitations of use when stand-mounted: - The device may be used for diagnostic imaging of the head, abdomen, cervical spine, or extremities. - The device may be used for imaging of the chest when used without a grid. This device is not intended for mammography.
Device Story
EzRay M18 is a portable X-ray system powered by a 57.6 Vdc rechargeable Li-ion battery. It consists of an X-ray tube, device controller, power controller, user interface, and beam-limiting collimator. Operated by qualified physicians or technicians in clinical settings, it generates X-ray radiation to acquire images of patient anatomy. The device supports handheld imaging for extremities and stand-mounted imaging for other body parts. It uses a high-frequency generator to produce X-ray outputs; clinicians view resulting images via external FDA-cleared digital detectors (not included). The device aids in diagnostic decision-making by providing radiographic images equivalent to existing stationary and portable systems. Benefits include portability for point-of-care imaging.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data. Image performance (MTF, spatial frequency, DQE, NPS) was compared against the XR5 reference device using an FDA-cleared 1417WCC flat-panel detector. Results demonstrated equivalent image quality. Safety and performance testing conducted per IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-3, IEC 60601-2-28, IEC 60601-2-54, and IEC 62133-2. Compliance with 21 CFR 1020.30 and 1020.31 confirmed.
Technological Characteristics
Portable X-ray system; 57.6 Vdc Li-ion battery power; high-frequency generator (1.8 kW); Canon D-0814 X-ray tube. Features manual, steplessly adjustable collimator with LED light field indicator. User interface uses soft-touch push buttons. Dimensions: 214 x 305 x 309 mm; Weight: 5.88 kg. Software level of concern: Moderate. Standards: IEC 60601-1, 60601-1-2, 60601-1-3, 60601-2-28, 60601-2-54, IEC 62133-2.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult and pediatric patients for diagnostic X-ray imaging of head, chest, abdomen, cervical spine, and extremities. Handheld use limited to extremities. Stand-mounted use limited to head, abdomen, cervical spine, extremities, and chest (without grid). Not for mammography.

#### 9. The differences between the subject device and the predicate device
The subject device described in this traditional 510(k) is similar to the predicate device (K182207) in its indications for use and technological application. Both the subject and predicate devices are taking diagnostic Xrays using a variable tube voltage (kVp) and current time product (mAs) or exposure time. The collimator of the EzRay M18 device is a continuously adjustable light beam type similar to the predicate TR90BH. The user can irradiate X-ray by adjusting the X-ray filed size of the desire body part. Exposure parameters are similar for both EzRay M18 and TR90BH using the same Canon X-ray tube model D-However, EzRay 18 has a larger capacity of the X-ray mono tank within the X-ray tube spec, resulting in 0814. higher exposure output. The high power mode of the predicate device, TR90BH, is 15 mA, the output (KW) is 1.35 kW for the maximum tube voltage 90kV. EzRay M18 emits a maximum of 20 mA and the output of 1.8 kW when the maximum tube voltage is 90kV. Because EzRay M18 is capable of setting a higher mA under the same maximum tube voltage of 90kV, it is possible to capture radiographic images of the same body parts intended for the predicate device. For the energy source, battery pack, the subject device receives power from the built-in rechargeable Li-ion battery pack which as same as the predicate device (K182207) uses. Rechargeable Li-ion battery pack has been tested and is in conformity with the standard IEC 62133. Other differences include device design such as exposure time, size and user interface.
#### 10. Non clinical Testing
Testing was performed successfully according to the following standards:
- IEC 60601-1:2005, COR1:2006, COR2:2007, AMD1:2012 ●
- . IEC 60601-1-2:2014
- . IEC 60601-1-3:2008 (Second Edition) + A1:2013
- IEC 60601-2-28:2017
- IEC 60601-2-54:2009, AMD1:2015, AMD2:2018
- IEC 62133-2:2017
Furthermore, the following Specific Guidance Document was utilized in the device development to ensure the safety of this device for both the operators and patients:
"The Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices" "Radiation Safety Consideration for X-ray Equipment Designed for Hand-Held Use"
The device also conforms to the following:
21 CFR 1020 Subchapter J: Performance Standards for Ionizing Radiation Emitting Products
21 CFR 1020.30: Diagnostic x-ray system and their major components
21 CFR 1020.31: Radiographic Equipment
Image performance testing was performed on the EzRay M18 in comparison with a reference device XR5 (K150663) using a FDA-cleared flat-panel detector, 1417WCC (K171418). The results of MTF, spatial frequency, DQE and NPS were compared under the same exposure conditions. The results demonstrated that the general image performance of the subject device is equivalent to the reference device. The difference between the two devices is that EzRay M18 is a portable X-ray system whereas the reference device is a stationary diagnostic X-ray system. It is concluded that EzRay M18 demonstrated adequate image quality performance through comparative study with the reference device.
{8}------------------------------------------------
## 11. Conclusions
In reference to the comparison information provide in Substantial Equivalence Chart, the subject device and the predicate device have little difference with its technological features. As demonstrated in the performance bench testing, X-ray performance and X-ray Safety of the subject device was tested in accordance with Federal standard 21CFR Part 1020.30 and 31 as well as international standards such as IEC 60601-1, 60601-2-54. Quality assurance procedures are adhered to, and the specifications and functional requirements were met as the test results indicated.
In accordance with the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, 21 CFR Part 807 and based on the information provided in this premarket notification. VATECH Co., Ltd. concludes that EzRay M18 (Model: VMX-P400) is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and its image quality performed equivalently in comparison with XR5 (K150663) using 1417WCC, a FDA-cleared digital detector (K171418) under the same exposure condition.
