The XR-910 folds into a compact unit (20" W 54.5" L 21" H). The XR-910 is then easily transported by a van or similar vehicle, to a private residence, nursing home, medical clinic, and other such facilities. With the large 15" pneumatic wheels, and 20" wheelbase and a weight of only 78 lbs., the XR-910 can be easily maneuvered through doorways, hallways, and up and down flights of stairs. This can be accomplished by an average person. Due to the large vertical movement of the tubehead and boom arm, and rotational positions of the tubehead, radiographs may be taken with the patient standing, sitting or supine. Radiographs may be taken of the chest and extremities. The XR-910 is a 50 to 90 kVp, 10 mA unit. Using 800 speed film and screens, exposure times for most radiographs are less than 100 milliseconds.
Device Story
The XR-910 is a portable, lightweight (78 lbs) mobile X-ray unit designed for transport to remote clinical settings or residences. It features a 20-inch wheelbase and 15-inch pneumatic wheels for maneuverability through doorways and stairs. The device operates on 120/220 VAC power, utilizing a logic-controlled inverter to generate 50-90 kVp at 10 mA. The system uses a 20 kHz oscillator to drive a high-voltage multiplier circuit, powering an X-ray tube. Exposure parameters are managed via a logic board with programmable timers (0.01 to 4.0 seconds). The operator positions the tubehead manually to capture radiographs on film. The device provides diagnostic images of chest and extremities, assisting clinicians in point-of-care diagnostics where traditional stationary X-ray equipment is inaccessible.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance was evaluated by comparing radiographs of a step wedge and a phantom against the DynaRad predicate system. Results indicated the XR-910 produced images adequate for its intended use and comparable to the predicate.

{1}------------------------------------------------
Substantial Equivalence Claim: The Imaging Sciences International Inc. XR-910 Mobile X-Ray unit is substantially equivalent to the DynaRad Corporation Phantom Portable X-Ray system.
Description Of The Device: The XR-910 Mobile X-Ray unit is a light weight (78 pounds), compact (20" W 54.5" L 21" H), X-Ray System. The system can be easily loaded into a van or similar vehicle for transporting to the site where the unit will be used.
Intended Use Of The Device: The XR-910 is easily transported by a van or similar vehicle, to a private residence, nursing home, medical clinic, and other such facilities. With the large 15" pneumatic wheels, and 20" wheelbase and a weight of only 78 lbs., the XR-910 can be easily maneuvered through doorways, hallways, and up and down flights of stairs. This can be accomplished by an average person. Due to the large vertical movement of the tubehead and boom arm, and rotational positions of the tubehead, radiographs mav be taken with the patient standing, sitting or supine. Radiographs may be taken of the chest and extremities. The XR-910 is a 50 to 90 kVp, 10 mA unit. Using 800 speed film and screens, exposure times for most radiographs are less than 100 milliseconds.
Technological Characteristics Of The Device: The XR-910 technology is based on the Keystone X-Ray Intrex VSK, 510 (k) Number K931486.
The basic power supply consists of a full wave bridge rectifier, so connected that it may be operated on either 120 VAC or 220 VAC, 50 - 60 Hz power lines. This accomplished by changing jumpers in the power supply.
At the output of the bridge rectifier, two very high capacity 250V filter capacitors smooth the rectified power, which is then presented to a voltage requlator, consisting of five transistors, amplifiers and a reference diode. This requlator requlates the voltage applied to a four diode transistor inverter chopper.
Another low voltage power supply, with its step down transformer, bridge rectifier, and associated filters, supply power to another requlator and a logic board, so connected as to control the technique factors and the "on - off" exposure of the X-Ray System.
{2}------------------------------------------------
The inverter is supplied by a 20 KHz signal that is developed on the logic board. This 20KHz alternately turns on and off the inverter to chop the DC power that has been generated in the power supply.
The 20KHz square wave is now transformed into 200 volt positive and negative pulses, this signal is then sent to the tubehead. In the tubehead the signal is supplied to a power output transformer, which raises the 200 volts to 6,000 volts. This 6,000 volts is now applied to a plus and minus multiplier PC boards. With its associated diodes and capacitors, the multiplier boards raise the 6,000 volt square wave to plus 35,000 and minus 35,000 volts. An X-Ray tube is placed between the two multiplier board outputs creating a potential across the X-Ray of 70,000 volts. The 20 KHz, 200 volt square wave may be adjusted upward and downward to create a kVp range from 50 kVp to 90 kVp in 1 kVp increments.
The filament of the X-Ray tube is also heated by the 20 KHz signal taken directly from the oscillator on the logic board. A rheostat is placed in series with the filament transformer, so it may be shunted out for fast heating of the filament, and switched back in during the exposure.
A voltage divider in the multiplier circuit of the tubehead allows the monitoring of the kVp. A current sample obtained from the primary of the power transformer allows the mA to be proportionately monitored within a 10% accuracy.
Two timers are included on the Timer PC board. One of the timers delays the exposure turn on until the filament has reached sufficient operating temperature. The second timer times the length of the desired exposure. The exposure time is can be programmed from 0.01 to 4.0 seconds in increments of 0.01 seconds. The clock for these timers operates at 1,000 KHz, and is divided down on the logic PC board:
In operation when, the exposure switch push button is depressed, the delay timer starts counting down a preprogrammed time that allows the filament to heat up to its proper temperature. When the delay timer has timed out the countdown of the exposure timer starts. At the end of the exposure, the exposure timer signals the inverter logic to cease operation, thereby shutting down both the high voltage anode and filament supplies, terminating the exposure.
{3}------------------------------------------------
Assessment of Non-Clinical Performance: During the evaluation process, the XR-910 Mobile X-Ray System was transported throughout various parts of our building. With the large 15" pneumatic wheels, a narrow 20" wheelbase and a weight of only 78 lbs., the unit was maneuvered through doorways, across concrete floors, carpeted floors and up and down stairways with relative ease.
During the evaluation, the 90 kVp Constant Potential and 10 mA of the XR-910 produced radiographs of a step wedge and a phantom that were comparable with the DynaRad unit, and adequate for their intended use.
Conclusions of Non-Clinical Performance: The performance of the XR-910 during the non-clinical evaluation would indicate that the system is substantially equivalent mechanically, electrically and radiographically to the DynaRad Phantom Portable X-Ray system.

Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
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.
