## Indications for Use

This device is intended to be used in the fluoroscopy and fluorography. This device is operated and used by Physicians and X-ray technologist. The object of this device is total patient populations.

## Device Story

Shimadzu Image Amplifiers (IA-16LM, IA-16LT, IA-16LD, IA-12LD/HG, IA-12LT/F) function as components within image-intensified fluoroscopic X-ray systems. These devices capture X-ray signals and convert them into visible light images for real-time visualization during diagnostic or interventional procedures. Operated by physicians and X-ray technologists in clinical settings, the amplifiers enhance the visibility of internal structures, aiding in clinical decision-making and procedural guidance. The devices serve as direct replacements for existing image intensifier technology, maintaining the same operational workflow and clinical utility as the predicate device.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Image-intensified fluoroscopic X-ray system components. These devices function as image intensifiers to convert X-ray radiation into visible light. They are designed for integration into existing fluoroscopy/fluorography systems. No specific materials, software algorithms, or connectivity features are detailed.

## Regulatory Identification

An image-intensified fluoroscopic x-ray system is a device intended to visualize anatomical structures by converting a pattern of x-radiation into a visible image through electronic amplification. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). An anthrogram tray or radiology dental tray intended for use with an image-intensified fluoroscopic x-ray system only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9. In addition, when intended as an accessory to the device described in paragraph (a) of this section, the fluoroscopic compression device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

## Predicate Devices

- IA-16VMA12 in KV-RF ([K984111](/device/K984111.md))
