## Indications for Use

The EVA Digital Dental Imaging System is intended to be used with standard digital dental X-ray systems and computer stations for system operation, archive data storage, input capture and enhancement, and patient data and support.

## Device Story

The EVA Digital Dental Imaging System is an accessory to extraoral dental X-ray systems. It captures X-ray radiation using a CMOS sensor, which replaces the CCD sensor used in the predicate device. The sensor converts radiation into a charge pattern, which is digitized by a processor and transmitted via a docking station to a computer. The system utilizes the ProImage software package for image capture, enhancement, and archival. It is intended for use by dental professionals in clinical environments. The device improves upon the predicate by offering a larger image area, higher resolution, lower power requirements, and a modern USB interface for computer connectivity, replacing the legacy ISA interface.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Solid-state CMOS imaging array; USB interface; ProImage application software; docking station for sensor connectivity; replaces legacy CCD sensor and ISA interface.

## Regulatory Identification

An extraoral source x-ray system is an AC-powered device that produces x-rays and is intended for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of diseases of the teeth, jaw, and oral structures. The x-ray source (a tube) is located outside the mouth. This generic type of device may include patient and equipment supports and component parts.

#### DEVICE NAME 2.

| Proprietary Name:    | EVA Digital Dental X-Ray System         |
|----------------------|-----------------------------------------|
| Common/Usual Name:   | Accessory to Extraoral X-Ray System     |
| Classification Name: | Extraoral Source X-Ray System Accessory |

#### PREDICATE DEVICES 3.

AFP Imaging Sens-A-ray System

### INTENDED USE 4.

The EVA Digital Dental Imaging System is intended to be used with standard digital dental X-ray systems and computer stations for system operation, archive data storage, input capture and enhancement, and patient data and support.

### DEVICE DESCRIPTION ડ.

The EVA System (previously named the Sens-A-Ray System) has been modified to incorporate a new sensor component and docking station. The proposed EVA System is essentially identical in intended use and fundamental technology to the parent Sens-A-Ray System described in K923067. The modifications are limited to changing the sensor from a CCD Sensor to a Complimentary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) sensor and adding a docking station. As with the original Sens-A-Ray Sensor, the CMOS sensor when exposed to radiation captures the image in the form of a charge pattern on its surface. The resulting

{1}------------------------------------------------

electronic output signals are digitized by a processor and sent to a computer screen for image presentation. The EVA System Sensor and supporting electronics are identical in intended use and fundamental technology to the parent Sens-A-Ray Sensor and supporting electronics.

#### · TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS AND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE 6.

The modified EVA System and the predicate Sens-A-Ray System both include the ProImage application software package. Both systems allow images to be captured, digitized, and uploaded to a standard computer. Both systems consist of an X-ray sensitive solid state imaging array enclosed in a capsule connected via cable to digitizing and control electronics which in turn interface to a computer via a standard interface. The only differences between the predicate and the proposed systems is the EVA system uses a CMOS imager chip in place of the CCD sensor as used in the predicate Sens-A-Ray and the docking station in place of the Imager and Image Grabber. The CMOS Sensor achieves a larger image area with higher resolution and lower power requirements. The EVA's computer hardware interface replaces the obsolete ISA interface used in the Sens-A-Ray with a standard USB interface. The Docking Station includes the commonly used USB interface instead of the ISB for communication between the sensor and the cable.

Trade/Device Name: EVA Digital Dental Imaging System Regulation Number: 21 CFR 872.1800 Regulation Name: Extraoral source x-ray system Regulatory Class: II Product Code: 90 EHD Dated: February 27, 2003 Received: February 28, 2003

## Dear Ms. McNamara-Cullinane:

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 (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. 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 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
