Indications for Use
The Optima XR240amx is intended to take exposures utilizing film, computed radiography (CR), or wireless detectors, which are intended to replace radiographic film screen systems in all general purpose diagnostic procedures, for digital radiography (DR). Optima XR240amx is a self-contained; battery operated mobile radiographic imaging system designed to generate diagnostic radiographic images (medical x-rays) that may increase the ability to detect disease or injury early enough for a medical problem to be managed, treated, or cured. Medical x-rays are used in many types of examinations and procedures, some examples include: x-ray radiography (to find orthopedic damage, tumors, pneumonias, foreign objects). The Optima XR240amx is indicated for use on adult and pediatric patients for general-purpose diagnostic radiographic examinations and procedures. Its mobility enables general-purpose radiographic procedures throughout the clinical environment, or as needed within the emergency, intensive care, premature birth ward, cardiac and operating departments, for patients that may not be able to be moved or in cases where it is unsafe or impractical to move them to a traditional RAD room. The system is indicated for taking radiographic exposures of the skull, spinal column, chest, abdomen, extremities, and other body parts with the patient sitting, standing, or lying in the prone or supine position. This device is not intended for mammographic applications. The Optima XR240amx incorporates AutoGrid, which is an optional image processing software installed as a part of the systems Helix image processing software. AutoGrid can be used in lieu of an anti-scatter grid to improve image contrast in general radiographic images by reducing the effects of scatter radiation.
Device Story
Optima XR240amx is a battery-operated mobile X-ray system; captures radiographic images using film, CR, or wireless digital detectors. Features AutoGrid software, an optional image processing module within the Helix software suite. AutoGrid functions as a virtual anti-scatter grid; estimates and subtracts scatter radiation from images to improve contrast. Eliminates need for physical anti-scatter grids; removes Source-to-Image Distance (SID) constraints associated with physical grids. Operated by clinicians in clinical settings (emergency, ICU, OR, etc.) for patients unable to be moved to traditional radiology rooms. Output is a diagnostic radiographic image; assists physicians in detecting orthopedic damage, tumors, pneumonia, or foreign objects. Benefits include improved workflow, reduced physical equipment handling, and consistent image contrast regardless of SID.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical studies performed. Bench testing demonstrated that AutoGrid software achieves image contrast equivalent to physical anti-scatter grids. Verification and validation testing confirmed safety and effectiveness.
Technological Characteristics
Battery-operated mobile X-ray system. Includes Helix image processing software with optional AutoGrid module. Connectivity via DICOM. Complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-3, IEC 60601-1-6, IEC 60601-2-54, and IEC 62366 standards.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult and pediatric patients for general-purpose diagnostic radiographic examinations of skull, spinal column, chest, abdomen, and extremities. Used in clinical environments including emergency, ICU, NICU, cardiac, and OR. Contraindicated for mammography.

AutoGrid can be used in lieu of an anti-<br>scatter grid to improve image contrast in general radiographic images<br>by reducing the effects of scatter radiation. |
| Technology: | The Optima XR240amx with AutoGrid employs the same fundamental<br>scientific technology as the predicate device. They are both battery<br>operated mobile x-ray systems that capture exposures utilizing film, CR<br>plates, or a wireless detector. The intended use is the same between the<br>Optima XR240amx with AutoGrid and the predicate device. The Optima<br>XR240amx with AutoGrid did not change the input power, battery<br>subsystem, drive subsystem, x-ray generation, and exposure control<br>from the predicate devices. The difference being introduced is a<br>modification to the Helix image processing software to incorporate an<br>optional image processing software called AutoGrid. AutoGrid can be<br>used in lieu of a physical anti-scatter grid attached to the cleared<br>wireless detectors to improve image contrast in general radiographic<br>images by reducing the effects of scatter radiation. The use of the<br>AutoGrid software can improve user workflow since there is no need to<br>physically incorporate an anti-scatter grid into the image chain. Its use<br>can also alleviate issues caused by the incorrect Source to Image<br>Distance (SID) setup with physical anti-scatter grids, since the AutoGrid<br>software does not require a specific SID to function. |
| The AutoGrid software reduces the effect of scatter radiation on the<br>image by estimating the scatter radiation within the image, and then<br>subtracting this scatter estimate from the image. The AutoGrid software<br>can be configured at three global strength options (Low, Medium, and<br>High). The strength indicates the amount of scatter reduction that will<br>occur during image processing. The Low strength corresponds to the<br>amount of scatter reduction that would occur through using a physical<br>6:1 ratio grid, Medium a physical 8:1 ratio grid, and High a physical 12:1<br>ratio grid. The AutoGrid software can be used in any application where a<br>physical grid was originally indicated, including both adult and pediatric<br>imaging techniques or protocols.<br>The AutoGrid software is an optional feature that cannot be used in<br>conjunction with a physical grid. | |
