Inputs consist of coronary angiographic X-ray images provided via DICOM-3 CD-ROM media. System utilizes general-purpose PC hardware, digital communication hardware, and proprietary software integrated with third-party medical image analysis tools. Operators (clinicians) use workstations to perform cine-like review, pan/zoom, frame rate control, window/level adjustments, image inversion, and real-time digital edge enhancement. System supports vessel measurements using NIH Image software. Output is displayed on high-resolution monitors (up to 1024x1024 pixels) to assist physicians in interpreting coronary anatomy and generating reports. Benefits include efficient digital storage, distribution, and review of cardiac studies compared to traditional film-based workflows. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Equivalence established through comparative analysis of functional specifications, image processing capabilities, and technical performance metrics against predicate devices. ## Technological Characteristics System comprises general-purpose PC hardware and digital communication hardware. Supports DICOM 3.0 standard for image interchange. Display resolutions: 512x512, 512x1024, and 1024x1024 pixels. Features real-time digital edge enhancement. Connectivity via digital fiber network. Software includes proprietary integration modules and third-party medical image analysis tools (NIH Image). ## Regulatory Identification An angiographic x-ray system is a device intended for radiologic visualization of the heart, blood vessels, or lymphatic system during or after injection of a contrast medium. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories. ## Predicate Devices - Camtronics Archium ([K934496](/device/K934496.md)) ## Reference Devices - IMACS - EIGEN ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
