No
The device description mentions an "embedded microprocessor" for control, which is standard for medical devices and does not indicate AI/ML. There are no mentions of AI, ML, deep learning, or related terms in the provided text. The performance studies focus on laser and electrical safety standards, not AI/ML performance metrics.
Yes
The device is clearly indicated for the treatment of various medical conditions, such as vascular lesions, rosacea, port wine stains, warts, and wrinkles, all of which aim to alleviate or treat a disease or condition.
No
The provided text explicitly states that the Candela Cbeam Pulse Dye Laser is used for "treatment" (e.g., photocoagulation of lesions, treatment of wrinkles), not for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "flash-lamp excited pulse dye medical laser" and describes physical components like an optical fiber, handpiece, and cryogen delivery system. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, the Candela Cbeam Pulse Dye Laser is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside the body (in vitro).
- Candela Cbeam Function: The description clearly states that the Candela Cbeam is a laser used for the treatment of various skin and vascular conditions. It delivers energy to the body to modify tissue.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological specimens or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.
The device is a therapeutic medical device used for direct treatment of conditions on the body.

Device Description
The Cbeam is a 585 nm flash-lamp excited pulse dye medical laser, controlled by an embedded microprocessor, to be used for the treatment of benign cutaneous vascular lesions, such as facial and leg telangiectasia, rosacea, port wine stains, hemangiomas, angioma, spider angioma. Poikiloderma of Civatee and benign cutaneous lesions, such as warts, scars. striea and psoriasis. Photocoagulation of benign cutaneous lesion and benign vascular lesion in Gynecology. Treatment of periorbital wrinkles. The Cbeam laser may be used with the Candela Dynamic Cooling Device, which provides a short burst of cryogen spray prior to firing the laser pulse. The laser output energy is delivered via an optical fiber to a handpiece, which produces circular beams with diameters of 5, 7 or 10 millimeters on the skin. The cryogen, which is housed within the laser enclosure. is delivered via a hose to a nozzle located in the handpiece.
The Candela Cbeam Pulse Dye Laser is equipped with safety interlock systems to protect patients and operators. Users of the device make selections from an onboard control panel to regulate operation during treatment.
