Intended Use

Relu Creator is a software program for the management, transfer, and analysis of dental and craniomaxillofacial image information, and can be used to provide design input for dental solutions. It displays and enhances digital images from various sources to support the diagnostic process and treatment planning. It stores and provides these images within the system or across computer systems at different locations.

Device Story

Relu Creator is a web-based software for dental/craniomaxillofacial preoperative planning. It imports medical images (CBCT, IOS, FS) to perform 3D modeling via image segmentation and multi-model registration. The device transforms these inputs into 3D anatomical models, which serve as design input for dental solutions. Used by dental specialists for treatment planning in orthodontics, implantology, and maxillofacial surgery. The software enhances digital images and provides outputs in STL, DICOM, PLY, and OBJ formats. It facilitates clinical decision-making by providing accurate 3D anatomical representations for simulation and planning, potentially improving treatment precision and patient outcomes.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Software validation and performance testing were conducted to verify that the device performs according to its intended use. No clinical data was required or presented.

Technological Characteristics

Web-based software application. Performs 3D modeling via image segmentation and multi-model registration. Inputs: CBCT, IOS, FS image files. Outputs: STL, DICOM, PLY, OBJ. Features automatic segmentation algorithm (Relu Engine). Operates on standard IT hardware/OS environments.

Indications for Use

Indicated for dental and craniomaxillofacial image management, transfer, and analysis to support diagnostic and treatment planning processes in dental disciplines including orthodontics, implantology, and maxillofacial surgery.

The main purpose is the3D modeling of the patient anatomy, which is technically called image segmentation and multimodel registration. Based on the model, simulations for preoperative and pretreatment planning can be caried out for dental applications. The 3D modeling (segmentation + registration) is performed on medical images like CBCT, IOS and FS. The preoperative/pretreatment software can be applied in various dental disciplines such as orthodontics, implantology, and maxillofacial surgery. # Intended Use/Indications for Use Relu Creator is a software program for the management, transfer, and analysis of dental and craniomaxillofacial image information, and can be used to provide design input for dental solutions. It displays and enhances digital images from various sources to support the {4}------------------------------------------------ diagnostic process and treatment planning. It stores and provides these images within the system or across computer systems at different locations. # Indications for Use Comparison 21 CFR 807.92(a)(5) Based on the comparison, the indications of use of the Subject Device is similar to that of the Predicate Device. There are two differences between the indications for use of the Subject Device and Predicate Device. One difference is in the scope of activities of Relu Creator when compared to DTX Studio includes the acquisition, management, transfer, and analysis of dental and craniomaxillofacial image information. Relu creator includes only management, transfer, and analysis of dental and craniomaxillofacial image information. Relu Creator does not include the acquisition of image information. Additionally, the indication for Relu Creator applies generally to dental solutions, rather than only to dental restorative solutions. This is because Relu Creator can be used to process image in the dental and craniomaxillofacial area for any treatment in that region. Based on the similarity of indication for use, the Subject Device can be considered substantially equivalent to the Predicate Device. # Technological Comparison Based on the comparisons, the design, construction, and performance characteristics of the Subject Device are similar to that of the Predicate Devices. The differences identified are not substantial differences in operation of the device. Input Data: The subject device does not acquire image data, whereas the predicate device includes features for image acquisition. Otherwise, the types of imaging file data imported to the subject device are similar to the inputs of the predicate device. Both include image file types that are commonly used in the dental industry (CBCT, IOS, and FS). Output Data: The subject device provides outputs in several formats (STL, DICOM, PLY, OBJ) that are commonly for dental and craniomaxillofacial treatment planning applications. The predicate device offers outputs in additionally, the predicate device provide treatment planning outputs. The subject device is intended for processing of dental and craniomaxillofiacial imaging data as an input to the treatment planning process. Image Processing: The subject device has the same general image processing features as the predicate device. However, the subject device does not include volume or surface area measurements. Automatic Segmentation Algorithm: Relu Creator includes an automatic segmentation algorithm, which is powered by Relu Engine. The predicate device also includes a similar automatic volume segmentation algorithm. OS/Hardware/T Requirements: The Minimum OS, Hardware, and IT Requirements of the Subject Device are similar to that of the Predicate Device. Relu Creator is available in beb-application formats. The differences between the predicate and subject device account for differences in the development framework used, but do not impact the intended use or application of the devices. There are no other substantial differences between the technical requirements between the Subject and Predicate Devices. #### Non-Clinical and/or Clinical Tests Summary & Conclusions 21 CFR 807.92(b) The Subject Device has passed testing for appropriate verification and performed per its intended use. Therefore, it can be substantially equivalent to its Predicate Devices. Based on the performance testing and software validation testing, the Subject Device, has been shown to be appropriate for its indications for use and is as safe and as effective than the legally marketed Predicate Device, DTX Studio 3.0 (K213562), There are no substantial differences between the indications for use, technological features, or performance testing of the Subject and Predicate Device. ### 21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)
