Indications for Use
The piXarray 100 Digital Specimen Radiography (DSR) System is a cabinet digital Xray imaging system intended to generate and control X-rays for examination of various anatomical regions, and to provide rapid verification that the correct tissue has been excised during excisional or percutaneous biopsy. Performing the verification directly in the same biopsy procedure room enables cases to be completed faster, thus limiting the time the patient needs to be under examination. Specimen radiography can potentially limit the number of patient recalls. This device is intended to be operated wherever the medical professionals deem appropriate, including a surgical suite or a room adjacent to a surgical suite.

configuration management. These activities are thoroughly documented and reviewed and approved by appropriate authorized authorities.
The submitter believes and claims that the submitted device was developed, I ne such tested and validated to perform in a manner that accurately portrays the submitted systems intended use, functionality, safety features, user interface, operation, and documentation. The results of these activities were reviewed by appropriate management and that review resulted in the documented determination that the submitted device met its design plan, is safe and effective, and, subsequent to FDA review of this submission, is ready for commercial distribution as a medical device.
The submitted device's software controls were subjected to significant verification and validation testing. Verification testing was performed during veftware coding and results were recorded as "comments" in the software code. Alpha validation testing included testing of all functionality and confirmation that all identified hazards have been adequately addressed by software functionality, the user interface or documentation.
Alpha validation activities included specified system software and operating software performance and environmental testing within the specified environment. Refer to "Software Revision History". Document # 1239. included in Exhibit 9.
Additionally, a few devices, labeled "Research Use Only." are being placed to further document the submitter 's performance claims and attempt to identify any unknown hazards. Any significant findings will be investigated and resolved appropriately. If a significant finding rises to an appropriate level, the submitter will take appropriate FDA notification action.
To the submitter's knowledge. the predicate device, Mammopath cabinet X-ray system. did not provide or reference any clinical tests submitted in compliance with 807.92(b)(2). therefore the submitter believes such clinical testing is not appropriate or required by FDA and has not made or provided any summary of such testing.
### SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE SUMMARY .J.
