The Digora for Windows 2.0 is a software device intended to using and managing dental x-ray images sent by Digora imaging plate scanner, storing the images and allowing the user to process and examine the images in order to achieve improved diagnoses. The software can also innager other imaging devices such as larger size imaging plate scanners and intraoral video cameras.
Device Story
Digora for Windows 2.0 is dental imaging software used to manage, process, and archive dental x-ray images. Input data originates from Soredex Digora imaging plate scanners, larger imaging plate scanners, or intraoral video cameras. The software provides tools for image manipulation, including edge enhancement, 3D emboss, density/contrast adjustment, zooming, rotation, color effects, and positive/negative inversion. It also performs length and angulation measurements and supports implant planning. The software archives images in a database and supports storage on external media like CD-ROMs. Used in dental clinical settings by dental professionals, the software allows clinicians to view and manipulate images to facilitate improved diagnostic assessment. It is a standalone software application.
Clinical Evidence
Safety and effectiveness demonstrated through laboratory and clinical tests, software verification, validation, and certification procedures, and adherence to risk management standards (IEC 601-1-4).
Technological Characteristics
Dental imaging software for image acquisition, processing, and archiving. Features include 3D emboss, edge enhancement, measurement tools, and density/contrast manipulation. Supports video capture and external storage. Software-based image processing. Complies with IEC 601-1-4 for risk management.
Indications for Use
Indicated for dental professionals to manage, process, and examine dental x-ray images acquired via Digora imaging plate scanners, larger imaging plate scanners, or intraoral video cameras to assist in clinical diagnosis.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An extraoral source x-ray system is an AC-powered device that produces x-rays and is intended for dental radiographic examination and diagnosis of diseases of the teeth, jaw, and oral structures. The x-ray source (a tube) is located outside the mouth. This generic type of device may include patient and equipment supports and component parts.

#### Names
Proprietary Name: Digora for Windows 2.0
Common or Usual Name: Dental imaging software
Proposed Classification Name: System, Digital image communications
## III Substantial Equivalent Devices
Digora for Windows 2.0 is substantially equivalent to Radworks Medical Imaging Software (K962699)
## IV Product Description
Digora for Windows 2.0 is a dental imaging, image processing and archiving software, mainly to be used with Soredex Digora scanner (K934949). With this software is is possible to scan intra oral images using the Digora scanner, perform functions like edge enhancement, 3D emboss, density and contrast manipulation, length and angulation measurement with the image. The software also archives the images in the database, from where images can be stored in image media like CD-rom's.
{1}------------------------------------------------
#### V Intended Use of the Device
The Digora for Windows 2.0 is a software intended to using and managing dental x-ray images sent by Digora imaging plate scanner, storing the images and allowing the user to process and examine the images in order to achieve improved diagnosies. The software can also support other imaging devices such as larger size imaging plate scanners and intraoral video cameras.
#### VI Indications for Use/Rationale for Substantial Equivalence
"Digora for Windows 2.0" software is designed to carry out substantially equivalent imaging procedures as "RadWorks" software but the amount of them is much less and their complexity is much limited than with "Radworks". "RadWorks" is a general medical software which must be capable of satisfying the various needs of medical environment. "Digora for Windows 2.0" is a software used only with Soredex Digora scanners to scan, manipulate and archive the dental image.
#### VII Summary of technological characteristics
Digora for Windows 2.0 software is designed to
- scan images with Digora scanner
- import and export images
- allow images to be manipulated
- 3D emboss
- edge enhancement
- length and angle measurement
- zooming
- density/contrast adjustment
- colour effects
- rotate images
- positive/negative image
- store images in the database
- support video capture and store
- support external image media
- printing of images, image sets and patient list
- implant planning
#### VIII Safety and Effectiveness Information
Safety and effectiveness is demonstrated by:
- laboratory and clinical tests
- software verification, validation and certification procedures
- risk management file and risk management summary (IEC 601-1-4)
All the above items and evaluations lead to the conclusion that Digora for Windows 2.0 is safe and effective when the device is used as labelled.
{2}------------------------------------------------
### IX Conclusion
Digora for Windows 2.0 Dental imaging software is substantially equivalent to the predicate device RadWorks, Medical imaging software.
:
The device has similar design ,operational and functional features as the current marketed predicative device.
The device has been shown to be safe and effective when it is used as labelled.
