Intended Use
The Nucletron microSelectron HDR - GENIE Afterloading System has the same intended use as the legally marketed predicate device cited. This device is intended to enable an operator to apply, by remote control, a radionuclide source into the body or to the surface of the body for radiation therapy.
Device Description
The entry-level microSelectron®HDR - GENIE Afterloading System concerns a microSelectron-HDR (V2) with only three treatment channels. The operators console of the microSelectron®HDR - GENIE Afterloading System concerns a PC running dedicated Treatment Console Software which is similar as in the predicate device microSelectron-HDR (V2). In the microSelectron®HDR - GENIE Afterloading System there is on the operators console a second completely independent software program for radiotherapy treatment planning. Treatment plans are transferred from the radiotherapy treatment planning software to the Treatment Console Software by file transfer. It is the same as in the predicate device where treatment plans are transferred to the Treatment Console Software from radiotherapy treatment planning software running on a separate computer. The radiotherapy treatment planning software is covered by a separate 510(k) submission. Applicators and Transfer Tubes as available for microSelectron-HDR (V2) are also applicable for the microSelectron®HDR - GENIE Afterloading System. The entry-level microSelectron®HDR - GENIE Afterloading System is a standalone device. Connection to a LAN is only for the purpose of File Transfer of Treatment Plan Files.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a radiation therapy afterloading system with treatment planning software, but there is no mention of AI or ML capabilities in the device description, intended use, or specific sections for AI/ML details.

Yes
This device is intended to apply a radionuclide source for radiation therapy, which is a medical treatment.

No

The device is intended for radiation therapy by applying a radionuclide source, which is a treatment function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "Afterloading System" which includes hardware components like a PC running software, but also implies a system for applying a radionuclide source, which is a physical process requiring hardware beyond just software. It also mentions "Applicators and Transfer Tubes" which are hardware components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "apply, by remote control, a radionuclide source into the body or to the surface of the body for radiation therapy." This describes a therapeutic device used for treating patients, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
  • Device Description: The description details a system for delivering radiation therapy, including a console, software for treatment planning and control, and components for source delivery (applicators and transfer tubes). This aligns with a therapeutic radiation delivery system.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

Therefore, the Nucletron microSelectron HDR - GENIE Afterloading System is a therapeutic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Dimmick:

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.

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); 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.

Image /page/2/Picture/12 description: The image shows the logo for the Department of Health & Human Services - USA. The logo is circular, with the text "DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES - USA" arranged around the perimeter. In the center of the circle is a stylized image of an eagle with three lines representing its wings and legs.
