Intended Use

The SmartView Option for HiSpeed CT/i is indicated for head and whole body x-ray computed tomography applications. The SmartView Option is a "real time" reconstruction with a display latency less than one second. An in-room monitor provides an image display with 6 frame/sec display of ninety, one second rotation, scans. Controls are provided for the control of the table and gantry by a physician or their assistant during procedures that require imaging.

Device Story

SmartView Option is an add-on for HiSpeed CT/i x-ray computed tomography systems; enables near real-time image reconstruction with <1s latency. Input: x-ray scan data. Transformation: high-speed image reconstruction processing. Output: 6 frame/sec image display on an in-room monitor. Used in clinical settings (e.g., interventional procedures) by physicians or assistants. Includes in-room monitor, hand control, and footswitch for initiating x-rays, gantry tilt, and table positioning. Allows clinicians to view scans in real-time during procedures, facilitating immediate clinical decision-making and patient positioning adjustments.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. System evaluation performed to ensure performance to specifications and adherence to industry/international standards (UL and IEC). No clinical data presented.

Technological Characteristics

X-ray computed tomography system. Materials compliant with UL 187, IEC 601-1, and 21 CFR Subchapter J. Includes in-room monitor, hand control, and footswitch. Energy source and exposure levels identical to predicate HiSpeed CT/i systems. Real-time reconstruction capability with <1s latency and 6 frame/sec display.

Indications for Use

Indicated for head and whole body x-ray computed tomography applications in patients requiring CT imaging.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A computed tomography x-ray system is a diagnostic x-ray system intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body by computer reconstruction of x-ray transmission data from the same axial plane taken at different angles. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.

Predicate Devices

• HiSpeed CT/i (K940606)
• HiSpeed CT/i with Performix Tube Option (K964746)

#### Summary of Safety & Effectiveness

This 510(k) summary of Safety and Effectiveness information is submitted in accordance with the requirements of 21 CFR Part 807.87(h)

Larry A. Kroger, Ph.D. Submitter. Regulatory Programs Manager Who may be contacted by telephone at 414-544-3894 or by FAX at 414-544-3863. Summary prepared 21 August 1997

Product Identification Name: SmartView Option for HiSpeed CT/i

Manufacturer. General Electric Medical Systems 16800 W. Rverson Road New Berlin, WI 53151

Same as Manufacturer Distributor:

#### Marketed Devices:

The SmartView Option for HiSpeed CT/i is of a type and substantially equivalent to currently marketed Computed Tomography X-ray Systems that comply with the same or equivalent standards and have the same intended uses.

#### Device Description:

The SmartView Option for HiSpeed CT/i is an x-ray computed tomography scanner based on the HiSpeed CT/i platform consisting of a gantry, patient table, console, computer and associated accessories.

Materials: Materials and construction are equivalent to the HiSpeed CT/i and are compliant with UL 187, IEC 601-1, and 21 CFR Subchapter J.

Design: The design is essentially the same as the HiSpeed CT/i (K940606) and CT/i with Performix Tube Option (K964746) the difference being that the SmartView option includes an inroom monitor, a hand control, and a footswitch for initiating x-rays. The hand control allows for gantry tilt and table positioning as well as control of viewing of the scans displayed in the room.

Energy Source and Exposure Levels: The energy source and exposure levels are the same as those previously submitted for HiSpeed CT/i and HiSpeed CT/i with Performix Tube Option.

Principals of Operation: The same as HiSpeed CT/i and HiSpeed CT/i with Performix Tube Option.

# Summary (cont.) SmartView Option

## Indications for Use:

The SmartView Option for HiSpeed CT/i is indicated for head and whole body x-ray computed tomography applications. This option is a modifications which can be added to the existing family of HiSpeed CT/i Systems. The option provides almost "real time" reconstruction (SmartView) with a display latency of less than one second. An in-room monitor provides an image display with 6 frame/sec display of up to ninety, one second rotation, scans. Controls are provided for the control of the table and gantry by a physician or their assistant during procedures that require imaging.

## Comparison with Predicate:

It is the opinion of GE Medical Systems that the SmartView Option for HiSpeed CT/i is of a comparable type and substantially equivalent to currently marketed head and whole body x-ray computed tomography systems with respect to design, material composition, energy source, and radiation characteristics.

## Adverse Effects on Health:

Potential electrical, mechanical and radiation hazards are identified in a hazard analysis and controlled by:

- System evaluation to insure performance to specifications and Federal Regulations. .
- Adherence to Industry and International Standards. (UL and IEC) .

#### Conclusions:

Use of the SmartView Option for HiSpeed CT/i does not result in any new potential safety risks and performs as well as or better than devices currently on the market.

Dear Dr. Kroger:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the including) to devices marketed in interstate in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.

Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
