Indications for Use
The Veraviewepocs Panoramic/Cephalometric X-ray Unit With Digital Image Function is an extraoral source X-ray unit that is used for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of teeth, jaw, and oral structure by exposing an X-ray image receptor to ionizing radiation, with an optional cephalometric capability, and a digital imaging capability for taking both panoramic and cephalometric images.
Device Story
The Veraviewepocs is an extraoral dental X-ray system providing panoramic and cephalometric imaging. It uses ionizing radiation to capture images of teeth, jaws, and oral structures. The device is operated by dental professionals in a clinical setting. The system includes digital imaging capabilities, allowing for the acquisition and display of digital radiographs. Healthcare providers use these images to assist in the diagnosis of dental and oral conditions. The device features patient-contact components such as temple stabilizers, ear rods, chin rests, and handles, all constructed from biocompatible materials. The system is designed to comply with electrical and mechanical safety standards (UL2601-1, IEC 60601-1) and radiation control regulations.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Evidence consists of bench testing, including software validation, electrical and mechanical safety testing (UL2601-1, IEC 60601-1), and image quality testing.
Technological Characteristics
Extraoral X-ray system with digital imaging capability. Materials: Biocompatible metals and plastics for patient-contact surfaces (temple stabilizers, ear rods, chin rests, handles). Standards: UL2601-1, IEC 60601-1, 21 C.F.R. Subchapter J. Connectivity: Digital imaging system.
Indications for Use
Indicated for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of teeth, jaw, and oral structures in patients requiring panoramic or cephalometric imaging.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A cephalometer is a device used in dentistry during x-ray procedures. The device is intended to place and to hold a patient's head in a standard position during dental x-rays.

## Intended Use
The Veraviewepocs Panoramic/Cephalometric X-ray Unit With Digital Image Function is an extraoral source X-ray unit that is used for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of teeth, jaw, and oral structure by exposing an X-ray image receptor to ionizing radiation, with an optional cephalometric capability, and a digital imaging capability for taking both panoramic and cephalometric images.
## Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence
The Veraviewepocs Panoramic X-ray Unit is an FDA-cleared extraoral source X-ray unit that is used for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of teeth, jaw, and oral structure by exposing an X-ray image receptor to ionizing radiation (K#013955). A cephalometric capability was added to this device in 2002 (K#021372). The device is now being modified to add a digital imaging capability.
{1}------------------------------------------------
The modified Veraviewepocs is substantially equivalent, for purposes of the FDA's medical device regulations, to Instrumentarium Corporation Imaging Division's (i) Orthoceph OC100 extraoral x-ray unit for cephalometric radiography (K#930338 and K#973642) (ii) Orthopantomograph OP100 extraoral x-ray unit for cephalometric radiography (also cleared under K#973642), and (iii) Orthoceph OC100 D for digital panoramic and cephalometric radiography (K#001439). The modified Veraviewepocs has the same general intended use, similar principles of operation, and similar technological characteristics as the previously cleared predicate devices. Although there are minor difference in the characteristics of the modified Veraviewepocs and the predicate devices, these differences do not raise new questions of safety or efficacy.
The software used in the modified Veraviewepocs has been successfully validated by Morita. The software validation report describes the development process for the device's software/firmware: the software change control and code revision procedures; the system and software requirements; the software handling and storage procedures; a hazard analysis; and a software/firmware certification that the company followed the above-described procedures and policies.
The modified Veraviewepocs was tested to ensure compliance with UL2601-1 and IEC 60601-1, and it complied with the applicable requirements. The modified Veraviewepocs will be tested and will comply with the applicable requirements of 21 C.F.R. Subchapter J prior to marketing. The modified Veraviewepocs also passed the image quality testing.
The modified Veraviewepocs complies with the applicable thermal, mechanical, and electrical safety requirements of UL2601-1 and IEC 60601-1, and will comply with the applicable requirements of 21 C.F.R. Subchapter J prior to marketing.
The modified Veraviewepocs uses biocompatible metals and plastics on any body contacting surfaces, such as the temple stabilizers and covers, ear rods, chin rests, patient handles, and front/rear head stabilizers. The metals and plastics have been widely used in other medical applications in which the metal or plastic is in body contact, including oral contact.
