K931410 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the NOVUS IMAGE ARCHIVE SYSTEM, TELERADIOLOGY SYSTEM. Classified as Device, Digital Image Storage, Radiological (product code LMB), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Novus Technologies, Inc. (San Leandro, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on February 18, 1994 after a review of 336 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.2010 - 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. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Radiology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
