K161201 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ClearRead CT. Classified as Lung Computed Tomography System, Computer-aided Detection (product code OEB), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Riverain Technologies, LLC (Miamisburg, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on September 9, 2016 after a review of 134 days - within the typical 510(k) review window.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.2050 - the FDA radiology and imaging software oversight framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Standard predicate reliance. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Radiology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.

OEB Device Classification - Class 2, Special Controls

Product Code OEB Lung Computed Tomography System, Computer-aided Detection
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 892.2050
Definition To Assist Radiologists In The Review Of Multi-slice Computed Tomography (msct) Exams Of The Chest And Highlight Potential Nodules That The Radiologist Should Review. A Computer Aided Diagnosis, Lung Computed Tomography System Is A Class 3 Device Under Product Code Nrr.
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. Clinical trial data may be submitted as supporting evidence to strengthen the substantial equivalence argument. Most Radiology devices follow this clearance model.
