#### 9. Performance Data
## - Summary of Performance Testing
The Green X 12 (Model : PHT-75CHS) digital X-ray system described in this 510(k) is identical to the predicate device in terms of indications for use, materials, safety characteristics, X-ray source and image reconstruction /MAR(Metal Artifact Reduction) process algorithm. The subject device is equipped with a new detector, Xmaru1404CF-PLUS.
The following information further substantial equivalence between the subject device and the predicate device : The fundamental technological characteristics of the subject and predicate device are identical. The imaging modes are similar; PANO, CEPH (Optional), CBCT and 3D MODEL Scan. All viewing software programs have been cleared with previous 510k submissions; EzDent-i (K223820) and Ez3D-i (K222069). The sponsor tested the subject device in a laboratory and provided a non-clinical performance report. The same test protocol was used to test the performance of the subject and the predicate device for comparison. The sponsor certifies that adequate design and development controls (according to 21 CFR 820.30) were in place for manufacturing the subject device.
For both devices, the differences are as follows.
- 1) The subject device is equipped with the Xmaru1404CF-PLUS detector which has been cleared with previous 510k submissions, PHT-35LHS (K162660).
- 2) The subject device includes additional Software functions; Auto Pano, Smart Focus, Scout
- a. The Auto Pano function reconstructs 3D CBCT data to create 2D panoramic images without separate Xray scans. Auto Pano function was previously cleared by the reference device, PHT-35LHS (K162660).
- b. Smart focus function provides a high-resolution CBCT image in the FOV 40x40 mm that the user can designate from 1 to 3 images in the console SW after acquiring a projection of the entire tooth. Full arch CT (FOV 120x85 mm) and Auto Pano images are additionally provided as user options.
- Scout is a function provided in FOV 80x50 mm and Endo(40x40 mm) mode, which allows the user to ﻥ preview and adjust the position of teeth before taking a Small FOV image.
The acceptance test was performed according to the requirements of 21 CFR Part 1020.30. 1020.33 and IEC 61223-3-5, Evaluation and routine testing in medical imaging departments - Part 3-5: Acceptance and constancy tests - Imaging performance of computed tomography X-ray equipment. Contrast, Noise, CNR, and MTF, the representative indicators for CT image quality were measured with FDK(back projection) and CS(iterative) reconstruction algorithm for the new X-ray equipment. The results demonstrated that the subject device performed equivalently to the predicate device in the general image quality.
In addition, the dosimetric performance of the subject device and the predicate device was compared in terms of DAP. With the identical FDD(Focal Spot to Detector Distance), exposure area, DAP measurement in the PANO mode of each device under the same X-ray exposure time, tube voltage, tube current) was the same. The CEPH mode for the subject device and the predicate device also has the same FDD(Focal Spot to Detector Distance), the same detector specifications, the same DAP measurement under the same X-ray exposure conditions (exposure time, tube voltage, tube current).
In CBCT mode, the direct comparison of the dosimetry performance for each mode available in the subject and predicate device is different exposure conditions such as the exposure area and exposure conditions(exposure time, tube current). Considering these differences, DAP was compared at the same FOV of 80x80 / 80x50 / Endo (40x40) mm supported by both devices. As a result of the comparison, the DAP of the Subjective device was lower than the Predicate device.
{8}------------------------------------------------
Moreover, the Clinical consideration and Image Quality Evaluation Report further demonstrated that the general image quality of the subject device is equivalent to the predicate device in PANO/CBCT mode.

Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
