Dear Xu Wei:
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. 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 (reporting of medical
device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set
forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic
product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

the regulation entitled, “Misbranding by reference to premarket notification” (21 CFR Part
807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21
CFR Part 803), please go to
http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm for the CDRH’s Office
of Surveillance and Biometrics/Division of Postmarket Surveillance.

Regulatory Class: Class II
Product Code: MQB
FDA 510(k) #: K150929
CareView 1500P is a kind of portablewireless digital X-ray flat panel detectors which have
434mm×355mm imaging area. The device communicates by not only the wireless
communication but also wired communication feature (Giga-bit Ethernet communication mode
by backup network port) optionally.
The device intercepts X-ray photons and then the scintillator emits visible spectrum photons
that illuminate an array of photo detectors (a-Si) that create electrical signals. After the electrical
signals are generated, it is converted to a digital value and an image will be displayed on the
monitor.
The detector should be integrated with an operating PC and an X-ray generator to utilize as
digitalizing X-ray images and transfer for radiography diagnostic.
Generally, CareView 1500P is the same as the cleared product, CareView 1500Cw except the
mechanical structure:
1) The dimension of CareView 1500P is 470.4mm ×510.4mm × 18.2mm, while the CareView
1500Cw is 384mm× 460mm × 15mm.
2) The CareView 1500P is design with integral handle, while the CareView 1500Cw is design
with built-in foldable handle.
3) The front cover of CareView 1500P has a protective film on carbon fiber plate, while the
front cover ofCareView 1500Cw is carbon fiber plate, not the protective film.
4) The external interface of CareView 1500P are power input port and backup network port,
while the CareView 1500Cw has a multifunctional (power and network function) I/O port.

b. Connection in the manual sync mode
There is no interaction of sync exposure signal between the detector and X-ray generator.
Users should control the exposure time manually according to exposure
recommendations provided by acquisition software.
c. Connection in theauto sync mode
There is no interaction of sync exposure signal between the detector and X-ray generator.
Users can take to exposure at any time after the hints of permitting to exposure.
In accordance with the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, 21 CFR Part 807 and based
on the information provided in this premarket notification,the CareView1500P is
substantially equivalent to predicate device CareView1500Cw (K150929). Both propose
and predicate devices are same in the intended use, the design principle, the applicable
standards and specification. Some characteristics, for example,the mechanical
structureand power of readout circuitare different. However the test reports in this
Page5of5
submission documents provide demonstration that these differences do not raise any new
questions of safety andeffectiveness. Therefore, CareRay Digital Medical System Co., Ltd.
concludes the CareView1500P is substantially equivalent with the predicate
deviceCareView1500Cw (K150929).
