K881133 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the 70-X/RVG (RADIOVISIOGRAPHY). Classified as Bar, Preformed (product code EHO), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Trophy Radiologie (Vincennes, Cedex (Paris), FR). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on July 20, 1989 after a review of 491 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 872.3165 - 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: High-complexity regulatory submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. The extended review timeline suggests the FDA required additional documentation before confirming substantial equivalence - a pattern common in complex or first-of-kind Radiology submissions.
