## Indications for Use

The Hitachi SX-VA30 C-Arm Fluoroscopic/Angiographic System is intended to visualize anatomical structures by converting a pattern of x-radiation into an image through electronic amplification and recording, and, when used with injection of contrast medium, to visualize the heart or blood vessels.

## Device Story

Ceiling-suspended single-plane C-arm system for angiographic/fluoroscopic imaging. Inputs: X-radiation patterns converted to electronic images. Components: High-voltage generator, X-ray tube, digital subtraction angiography (DSA) system, ceiling-traveling support, control electronics, display/table-side panels. Operation: C-arm rotates around isocenter for whole-body imaging (head to foot). Output: Real-time fluoroscopic/radiographic images displayed for clinician monitoring during procedures. Usage: Clinical setting (e.g., interventional suites); operated by physicians/technicians. Benefit: Enables visualization of anatomical structures and vasculature; real-time monitoring reduces need for repeat studies.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Compliance verified against electrical safety standards, JIS Z 4701-1988 (General Rules for Medical X-Ray Equipment), and FDA Performance Standards for Ionizing Radiation Emitting Products (21 CFR 1020), specifically 21 CFR 1020.32 for fluoroscopic equipment.

## Technological Characteristics

Ceiling-suspended C-arm; X-ray imaging system. Components: High-voltage generator, X-ray tube, collimator, receptor, and digital processing system. Connectivity: Digital imaging system with optional conventional film radiography. Standards: JIS Z 4701-1988, 21 CFR 1020.32.

## 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.

## A. LEGALLY MARKETED PREDICATE DEVICES

The Hitachi SX-VA30 C-Arm Angiographic/Fluoroscopic System is substantially equivalent to the presently marketed Hitachi SF-VA100 as distributed by Hitachi Medical Systems America (as cleared in K945400) and the Philips Medical Systems Integris V3000 (K923813). The SX-VA30 is manufactured by Hitachi Medical Corporation, Hitachi Hagoromo Building, 1-2-10 Uchi-Kanda, Chiyoda-Ku, Tokyo, 101, Japan. This 510(k) is submitted because the SX-VA30 is a new device.

## B. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The Hitachi SX-VA30 C-Arm Angiographic/Fluoroscopic System is a single plane, ceiling suspended C-Arm system intended for angiographic and related diagnostic and therapeutic procedures requiring fluoroscopic and radiographic imaging. It is configured with other components such as high voltage generator, x-ray tube assembly, DSA system, etc., to form a complete fluoroscopy and angiography system. The C-arm is disposed on the isocenter and is movable in a wide range to permit studies of the patient's whole body from the head to the foot from a number of angles.

The SX-VA30 system consists of the SX-VA30 Ceiling-traveling C-Arm Support with ceiling track rails, the control electronics box, the display panel, and the table-side control panel. The SX-VA30 is also configured with the DFA-100-30 digital subtraction angiography system, and several other components which have been previously cleared by FDA as a part of K945400.

While the system is configured with a digital imaging system as

standard, conventional film radiography may be employed as an option.

In the digital domain, acquired images may be stored in a variety of formats. During acquisition cycles, the progress of the study can be monitored as it occurs, largely eliminating the need for studies to be redone.

## C. INTENDED USE

The Hitachi SX-VA30 C-Arm Fluoroscopic/Angiographic System is intended to visualize anatomical structures by converting a pattern of x-radiation into an image through electronic amplification and recording, and, when used with injection of contrast medium, to visualize the heart or blood vessels.

## D. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE SUMMARY

The Hitachi SX-VA30 has the same intended use and target population as the predicate devices, and has equivalent effectiveness for its intended use.

## E. TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The technological characteristics of the Hitachi SX-VA30 are the same as for the Philips Integris V3000 C-Arm system, and except for the support system, are the same as for the SF-VA100.

Subsystem components such as X-ray generators, X-ray tubes, X-ray columnators and receptors, and digital processing systems are identical or very similar to the corresponding components of the SF-VA100.

Most of the differences between the predicate devices and the SX-VA30 are in areas of incremental improvements and have been gained using technology common to both designs.

## F. TESTING

The SX-VA30 was tested in the same manner as was the previously cleared SF-VA100. This testing addressed the following issues:

(1) Electrical Safety;
(2) Conformance to the General Rules for Medical X-Ray Equipment, JIS Z 4701-1988 (Japanese Industrial Standard); and
(3) Conformance to the applicable provisions of the FDA Performance

{2}

Standards for Ionizing Radiation Emitting Products (21 CFR 1020), particularly the section for Fluoroscopic Equipment (21 CFR 1020.32).

## G. CONCLUSIONS

Hitachi Medical Systems America has demonstrated that the Hitachi SX-VA30 is substantially equivalent to the Hitachi SF-VA100 and the Philips Integris V3000.
