## Intended Use

The Hip Structural Analysis (HSA) Option for QDR X-Ray Bone Densitometers uses data from conventional Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA) scans to measure the distribution of bone mineral mass at specific cross sections of the hip and allows the physician to estimate structural properties of the hip, such as CSA, CSMI, Z and Buckling Ratio.

## Device Story

Software option for Hologic QDR X-Ray Bone Densitometers; utilizes existing DXA scan data as input. Transforms bone mineral mass distribution data into structural hip properties; calculates cross-sectional area (CSA), cross-sectional moment of inertia (CSMI), section modulus (Z), and buckling ratio. Used in clinical settings by physicians to assess hip bone structure. Output provides quantitative estimates to assist clinical decision-making regarding bone health and fracture risk assessment.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence supported by scientific literature and bench testing.

## Technological Characteristics

Software-only option for existing DXA hardware. Performs geometric and structural calculations based on bone mineral mass distribution. Operates on Hologic QDR X-Ray Bone Densitometer platforms.

## Regulatory Identification

A bone densitometer is a device intended for medical purposes to measure bone density and mineral content by x-ray or gamma ray transmission measurements through the bone and adjacent tissues. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.

## Predicate Devices

- Discovery Package for QDR Densitometers ([K023398](/device/K023398.md))
- Advanced Hip Assessment (AHA) Software for GE Prodigy x-ray bone densitometers ([K011917](/device/K011917.md))

Regulation Number: 21 CFR 892.1170 Regulation Name: Bone densitometer Regulatory Class: II Product Code: KGI Dated: June 2, 2006 Received: June 5, 2006

Dear Ms. Pugsley:

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 (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such 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.

Image /page/3/Picture/11 description: The image is a circular logo or seal. The text "1906-2006" is at the top of the logo. The letters "PA" are in the center of the logo in a large, bold font. The word "Centennial" is below the letters "PA". Three stars are below the word "Centennial".
