Indications for Use
The OrthoScan TAU Mini C-arm is designed to provide physicians with general fluoroscopic visualization, using pulsed or continuous fluoroscopy, of a patient including but not limited to, diagnostic, surgical, and critical emergency care procedures for patients of all ages including pediatic populations when imaging limbs/extremittes, shoulders; at locations including but not limited to, hospitals, ambulatory surgery, emergency, traumatology, orthopedic, critical care, or physician office environments.
Device Story
Mobile fluoroscopic mini C-arm system; provides real-time X-ray visualization of patient anatomy (limbs, extremities, shoulders). System comprises C-arm support, CMOS flat panel detector (FPD), X-ray source, and mobile workstation. Operator uses touch screen/keyboard to control X-ray technique, image acquisition, and processing. Features include pulsed/continuous fluoroscopy, variable beam limiting, and pediatric dose reduction (IDR) filters. Used in hospitals, ORs, and clinics by physicians/technicians. Output displayed on monitor for live visualization of pathology/anatomy during procedures. Benefits include precise anatomical localization and reduced radiation dose via IDR technology. Optional UPS ensures data integrity during power loss.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No human clinical studies conducted. Performance validated using anthropomorphic (PMMA) and anatomical simulation phantoms. A board-certified radiologist assessed 330 images across 20 sets, comparing the subject device to predicates. Results demonstrated equivalent image quality with reduced patient entrance dose.

Dear Mr. Seeman:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmp/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see

The OrthoScan TAU Mini C-Arm is a mobile fluoroscopic mini Carm system that provides fluoroscopic images of patients of all ages during diagnostic, treatment and surgical procedures involving anatomical regions such as but not limited to that of extremities, limbs, shoulders, knees, and Hips. The system consists of C-arm support attached to the image workstation. The proposed device provides the option of three CMOS flat panel detector sizes and identical X-ray source HVPS monoblock generator assembly with continuous or pulsed operation for image acquisition.
The C-arm supports the CMOS FPD, X-Ray controls, collimator, high voltage generator with a fixed SID imaging. The C-arm and support arm which is connected to the mobile workstation platform are mechanically balanced allowing the operator precise positioning and locking of the vertical, horizontal, orbital and

rotational movements at various angles and distances when imaging the patient's anatomical structures.
The main workstation platform that supports the C-arm assembly contains the power control system, image processing system, system software, monitor display control and main user interface controls. The combination of C-Arm and workstation provides the clinician with a stable platform to obtain precise angles for localizing the patient's anatomical structures and visualization of pathology during live fluoroscopic imaging.
The touch screen interface and keyboard provide user concise selectable imaging, X-ray technique control, entry of patient demographics and related procedural information. The workstation supports both an optional wired or wireless fluoroscopic footswitch allowing optimal positioning for the clinician. The optional connector interface panel of the OrthoScan TAU Mini C-Arm provides convenient connection of peripheral devices such as thermal video printers, image storage devices (USB) and DICOM fixed wire and wireless network interfaces.
OrthoScan TAU Mini C-Arm is intended to provide fluoroscopic images of the patient including but not limited to, diagnostic, surgical, and critical emergency care procedures during diagnostic or therapeutic treatment/surgical procedures of the upper and lower extremities.
Indications for Use: The OrthoScan TAU Mini C-Arm is designed to provide physicians with general fluoroscopic visualization, using pulsed or continuous fluoroscopy, of a patient including but not limited to, diagnostic, surgical, and critical emergency care procedures for patients of all ages including pediatric populations when imaging limbs/extremities, shoulders; at locations including but not limited to, hospitals, ambulatory surgery, eemergency, traumatology, orthopedic, critical care, or physician office environments.
