Planmeca Romexis software is: Not intended for capturing optical impressions for dental restorations. Not intended for optically scanning stone models and impressions for dental restorations. Not intended for optically scanning intraoral preparations for use in designing implants and/or abutments. Not intended for optically scanning intra-orally for use in orthodontics. Not intended for mammography use.

## Device Story

Planmeca Romexis is modular imaging software for dental/medical use; operates on standard PCs. Inputs include 2D images and 3D CBCT DICOM files from Planmeca X-ray units. Software provides patient management, image acquisition, and visualization tools including multi-projection reconstruction (MPR), volume rendering, measurements, implant planning, airway visualization, and TMJ modules. Enhancements and filters assist diagnosis; original exposures remain in database. Used by authorized healthcare professionals in clinical settings to review, store, and distribute images. Output supports clinical decision-making for dental/medical diagnosis and preoperative implant planning. Includes device monitoring features for maintenance.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Comparison of images rendered by Planmeca Romexis and predicate InVivoDental confirmed equivalent effectiveness in performing essential functions and providing substantially equivalent clinical data. Quality assurance included risk analysis, requirements/design reviews, and verification/validation testing.

## Technological Characteristics

Software application for standard PC hardware. Functions include 2D/3D image display, processing, visualization (MPR, volume rendering), and sharing. Supports DICOM format. Includes image enhancement filters, measurement tools, and device monitoring. No specific material or energy source requirements as it is a software-only device.

## Regulatory Identification

A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls; voluntary standards—Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) Std., Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) Std., Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) Test Pattern).

## Predicate Devices

- Anatomage InVivoDental ([K123519](/device/K123519.md))
- Televere Systems TigerView ([K061035](/device/K061035.md))

# DEVICE DESCRIPTION

Planmeca Romexis is a modular imaging software for dental and medical use. It is divided into modules to provide user access to different workflow steps involving different diagnostic views of images. Patient management screen with search capabilities lets users to find patients and identify correct patient file before starting work with a patient. After creating or selecting patient, new images can be acquired using select Planmeca X-ray units.

Planmeca Romexis is capable of processing and displaying 2D images in different formats and 3D CBCT images in DICOM format. 3D CBCT images can be viewed in near real-time multi projection

## TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS

Both Planmeca Romexis and the predicate device InVivoDental are software applications with similar characteristics related to managing of 3D image files. Both applications are meant for use with standard PC hardware and include similar major functionality related to display, processing, visualization and sharing of dental and medical 3D image files, such as multiplanar views, volume rendering view, measurements, implant planning, airways visualization, TMJ module, virtual cephalometric and panoramic images and sharing of image files with a viewer.

The main difference is that Planmeca Romexis lacks the capability to make surgical or orthodontic planning.

Both Planmeca Romexis and the predicate device TigerView Professional are software applications with similar characteristics related to managing of 2D image files. Both applications are meant for use with standard PC hardware and include similar major functionality related to display, editing, reviewing, storing, printing, and distributing of 2D image files, such as annotations, adjustments, integration with

## NON-CLINICAL TEST RESULTS

. The following quality assurance measures were applied to the development of the Software:

- Risk Analysis
- Requirements Reviews
- Design Reviews
- Performance testing (Verification)
- Safety testing (Verification) .
- ♥ Final acceptance testing (Validation)
- Bench testing to compare with predicate software ●

Testing confirmed that Planmeca Romexis is stable and operating as designed. Testing also confirmed that Planmeca Romexis has been evaluated for hazards and that the risk has been reduced to acceptable levels.

The non-clinical bench-testing of Planmeca Romexis with predicate software was performed by comparison of images rendered by Planmeca Romexis and the predicate software InVivoDental of Anatomage. This confirms that both software applications are equally effective in performing the essential functions and provide substantially equivalent clinical data.
