Intended Use

The intended use of the Eagle software for the Hologic QDR X-Ray Bone Densitometers is estimation of BMD.

Device Story

Eagle software is an evolution of existing software for Hologic QDR X-Ray Bone Densitometers; operates on Microsoft Windows 98. Device processes X-ray data acquired by the densitometer to estimate bone mineral density (BMD) and bone mineral content (BMC) at various anatomical sites. Used in clinical settings by trained operators to assist clinicians in assessing bone health. Output provides quantitative measurements of BMD and BMC, aiding in clinical decision-making regarding bone density status.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; device is a software update to existing, legally marketed bone densitometry systems.

Technological Characteristics

Software-based application operating on Microsoft Windows 98 platform. Designed for integration with Hologic QDR X-Ray Bone Densitometers. Utilizes existing X-ray densitometry sensing principles to calculate BMD and BMC.

Indications for Use

Indicated for the estimation of projected bone mineral density (BMD, in g/cm2) and bone mineral content (BMC, in g) at various anatomical sites using Hologic QDR X-Ray Bone Densitometers. Prescription use only.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A bone densitometer is a device intended for medical purposes to measure bone density and mineral content by x-ray or gamma ray transmission measurements through the bone and adjacent tissues. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.

Predicate Devices

• Currently commercialized Hologic QDR X-Ray Bone Densitometers

Re: K992677 Eagle Software for Hologic® QDR® X-Ray Bone Densitometers Dated: August 9, 1999 Received: August 10, 1999 Product Code: 90 KGI Regulatory Class: II (two) 21 CFR 892.1170

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we 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 redassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class III (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. 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 requirements, 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 the Electronic Product 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.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at [phone].
