Intended Use

Intended for use by a qualified/trained physician or technician on both adult and pediatric subjects for taking diagnostic x-rays.

Device Story

Portable X-ray system for diagnostic imaging of extremities; used in hospitals, clinics, nursing homes, and mobile settings. Operated by qualified physicians or technicians. Device generates X-rays via battery-powered generator; tube voltage (50-80 kV) and exposure time are manually set by user via dial; MCU controls semiconductor switching for irradiation. Device does not include X-ray detector; requires external digital or film detector to capture images. Output is X-ray beam passing through patient anatomy to detector. Healthcare providers use resulting images for diagnostic purposes. Benefits include portability for point-of-care imaging and reduced radiation exposure through controlled irradiation.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. No clinical data. Performance validated via electrical safety (IEC 60601-1), EMC (EN 60601-1-2), and radiological performance standards (IEC 60601-2-54). Image quality metrics (DQE, MTF, spatial resolution) compared against predicate; results showed differences within measurement uncertainty (±3% for DQE, <1% for MTF), supporting substantial equivalence.

Technological Characteristics

Portable X-ray system; battery-powered (22.2V Lithium Ion Polymer). Tube potential: 50-80 kV; Tube current: 2-5 mA (fixed). Exposure time: 0.03-2.0s.

Dear Ki-Chan An:

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 (the 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 available 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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

# 5. Device Description and Principles of Operation

## A. Overview

BONX805 is portable X-ray unit integrated with small computer. BONX805 goes with you no matter where the patient is (hospitals, clinics, nursing home and out-of-office mobile use). One unit can serve all the operators in your practice. BONX805 was designed to help doctors and radiologists for exact diagnosis with clear X-ray images and safety from unnecessary radiation exposure. This device shall be used in professional healthcare environment. An x-ray detector (necessary component for a fully-functional diagnostic system) is not part of the device. Basic functions of the subject device BONX805 are supported by software(firmware). The firmware of portable X-ray is a software which installed in product to operate BONX805. The firmware is installed in the hardware (embedded system). The firmware(Version: REV 1.00) controls the use mode and irradiation, also the firmware is expected to unchanged during its lifetime.

## B. Intended use

Intended for use by a qualified/trained physician or technician on both adult and pediatric subjects for taking diagnostic x-rays.

## C. Principles of Operation

BONX805 generates and controls X-rays using the power of the built-in battery, and irradiation is absolutely prohibited during charging. X-ray irradiation is controlled by the designed electronic circuit and MCU, and among the conditions necessary for shooting, the tube voltage is adjustable and the tube current is fixed. The irradiation time is set manually, and the value adjusted by the MCU electronically controls the semiconductor switching element. Using this X-ray, it passes through the body part to be diagnosed to obtain an image with a detector so that it can be used for diagnosis. The irradiation time setting method sets the irradiation time by the user turning the dial manually.

After setting, press the exposure button.

The BONX805 should be used with an X-ray detector, and this detector has a digital type and a film type. But the X-ray detector is not included in the BONX805 package.

## D. Indication for use

The BONX805 is a portable X-ray system for diagnostic imaging of body extremities.

# 6. Substantial Equivalence Comparison

Both the subject(BONX805) and predicate(Remex KA6) device are intended for mobile x-ray examination of adult and pediatric populations.

Both devices are DC-powered by battery while charged with AC-power.

Tube potential and mAs for the subject device are similar to those of the predicate device. The subject device has a fixed tube current of 2-5mA whereas the predicate device can vary between 2-6mA. Both exposure power settings are capable of producing diagnostic x-ray images of extremities for adult and pediatric patients.

Due to differences in technological characteristics (kV, exposure time, mA) between the target and predicate device, the predicate devices, Remex KA6, can produce slightly more X-ray exposure.

The above comparison of technological characteristics shows to be less powerful than the predicate, with lower tube voltage and current being the more obvious examples. These variations raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness.
