## Indications for Use

The LR 5200 is a laser based (Helium-neon) film recorder, designed for producing high quality gray scale diagnostic medical images, when interfaced to a host imaging device. Typical host imaging devices would include those of Magnetic Resonance, Computed Tomography, Ultrasound, Mammography, Digital Radiography, and Nuclear Medicine imaging modalities. The diseases and conditions that the device will aid in the diagnosis of, are those that are typical to radiological types of examinations.

## Device Story

LR 5200 laser film recorder; uses Helium-neon laser to produce gray-scale diagnostic images on photo-sensitive film. Interfaces with host imaging devices (MRI, CT, Ultrasound, Mammography, Digital Radiography, Nuclear Medicine). Operates by modulating light source with patient image data; writes image to film for physician review. Used in clinical radiology settings; assists physicians in diagnosing conditions typical to radiological examinations.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Helium-neon laser light source; modulated light output; photo-sensitive film medium; standalone film recorder unit; interfaces with external host imaging modalities.

## Regulatory Identification

A medical image hardcopy device is a device that produces a visible printed record of a medical image and associated identification information. Examples include multiformat cameras and laser printers.

## 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). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION. The LR 5200 is a laser based (Helium-neon) film recorder, designed for producing high quality gray scale diagnostic medical images, when interfaced to a host imaging device. Typical host imaging devices would include those of Magnetic Resonance, Computed Tomography, Ultrasound, Mammography, Digital Radiography, and Nuclear Medicine imaging modalities. The diseases and conditions that the device will aid in the diagnosis of, are those that are typical to radiological types of examinations.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS. The LR 5200 has the same technological considerations as those mentioned above in the Substantially Equivalent Device section. These are a light source that becomes modulated with the patient image information and then written on a photo sensitive medium for viewing by the diagnosing physician.
