# Key Technology Differences:

- A. Dimensions & weight: the predicate IDC X3C is a larger and heavier imaging detector than the proposed 1717TC and 1417TC flat panels.
Risk management activities are based on ISO 14971:2007 "Medical Devices – Application of Risk Management to Medical Devices". As identified in the IDC FMEA Risk Assessment, the decrease in size and weight of the proposed 1717TC and 1417TC has led to decreased safety risks when compared to the predicate IDC X3C device. The Risk Assessment identified the predicate IDC X3C to hold a higher risk for injury during potential safety incidents than those of the proposed 1717TC and 1417TC flat panels based on the size and weight of each medical device.

The size and weight differences between the predicate device and the proposed 1717TC and 1417TC devices does not affect device performance.

- Software: IDC Magellan 3 software was integrated for use on the proposed 1717TC and B. 1417TC flat panel medical devices. The operating systems for the proposed 1717TC and 14147TC flat panels are identical to the predicate X3C detector. IDC will supply the workstation and software with the medical devices proposed in this 510(k) application.
No changes were made to the previously cleared 1717SCC and 1417PCA detectors and associated firmware for the proposed 1717TC and 1417TC medical devices.

No changes were made to the IDC Magellan 3 software for integration with the previously cleared 1717SCC and 1417PCA flat panels for the proposed 1717TC and 1417TC medical devices. As regular software maintenance was performed, full system level verification, validation and regression testing was performed.

No changes have been made to the IDC Magellan 3 software for integration with potential wireless technology. The FDA will be notified if changes will be required for wireless technology, at which time a separate premarket application will be submitted.

#### 8. Conclusion:

The Aquarius 8600 1717TC and Aquarius 8600 1417TC medical devices have identical indications for use, and similar technological characteristics as the IDC X3C predicate device.

The flat panel components for the Aquarius 8600 1717TC and Aquarius 8600 1417TC are identical to the flat panels listed as reference devices (cleared separately in K102123 and K122919), and employs the same software as the IDC X3C predicate device.

The Aquarius 8600 1717TC and Aquarius 8600 1417TC devices are dimensionally smaller and lighter in weight than the predicate IDC X3C detector, which results in a safer medical device.

The proposed Aquarius 8600 1717TC and Aquarius 8600 1417TC Flat Panels conform to US Performance Standards and are UL listed to US Standards for safety for medical devices.

In accordance with the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, 21 CFR Part 807 and based on the information provided in this premarket notification, it is the opinion of IDC that the Aquarius 8600 1717TC and Aquarius 8600 1417TC are substantially equivalent in comparison with the IDC X3C predicate device as described herein.
