The description focuses on image-guided navigation based on landmark registration and 3D modeling, without mentioning AI/ML algorithms for image analysis, planning, or decision support.
No.
The device is an image-guided localization system that aids surgeons in navigation and planning during orthopedic surgery. It does not directly treat or cure a medical condition.
No
This device is an image-guided localization and navigation system used during surgery to aid the surgeon, not to diagnose a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly mentions linking a surgical instrument tracked by flexible passive markers and a passive marker sensor system, indicating the presence of hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided text, the BrainLAB VectorVision device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- BrainLAB VectorVision's Function: The description clearly states that BrainLAB VectorVision is an intraoperative image guided localization system. Its purpose is to aid surgeons in navigating surgical instruments and implants during surgery based on anatomical landmarks and pre- or intraoperative imaging data.
- No Specimen Analysis: The device does not involve the collection, preparation, or analysis of any specimens taken from the patient's body. It works with imaging data and physical tracking of instruments relative to the patient's anatomy.
Therefore, based on the provided information, BrainLAB VectorVision falls under the category of a surgical navigation or guidance system, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
BrainLAB VectorVision is intended to be an intraoperative image guided localization system to enable minimally invasive surgery. It links a freehand probe, tracked by a passive marker sensor system to virtual computer image space on an individual 3D-model of the patient's bone, which is generated through acquiring multiple landmarks on the bone surface. The system is indicated for any medical condition in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate and where a reference to a rigid anatomical structure, such as the skull, a long bone, or vertebra, can be identified relative to a CT, X-ray, MR based model of the anatomy. The system aids the surgeon to accurately navigate a knee endoprothesis to the intraoperatively planned position. Ligament balancing and measurements of bone alignment are provided by VectorVision® CT-free knee.
Example orthopedic surgical procedures include but are not limited to:

Device Description
BrainLAB VectorVision® CT-free knee is intended to enable operational planning and navigation in orthopedic surgery. It links a surgical instrument, tracked by flexible passive markers to virtual computer image space on an individual 3D-model of the patient's bone, which is generated through acquiring multiple landmarks on the bone surface. VectorVision® CT-free knee uses the registered landmarks to navigate the femoral and tibial cutting guides and the implant to the planned optimally position.
VectorVision® CT-free knee allows 3-dimensional reconstruction of the mechanical axis and alignment of the implants. The VectorVision® CT-free knee software has been designed to read in data from different implant manufacturers and offers to individually choose the prosthesis during each surgery. The VectorVision® CT-free knee software registers the patient data needed for planning and navigating the surgery intraoperatively. No preoperative CT-scanning is necessary.
