Intended Use

This device is intended for mounting blocks and/or compensators/modulators for insertion into a Linear Accelerator head.

Device Description

Blocking Trays are to be used as an accessory to a Linac. Custom blocks are mounted onto Blocking trays and slid into the Linac into their accessory holder thereby stenciling the radiation beam onto the patient. Compensators are also mounted on blocking trays and slid into the Linac changing the radiation beam fluence unique to a patient's anatomy.

AI/ML Overview

This 510(k) submission does not contain information on acceptance criteria, device performance, or a study proving that the device meets acceptance criteria. The document is a 510(k) summary for a "Blocking Tray" accessory to a Linac, and the FDA's response indicating substantial equivalence to predicate devices.

The document primarily focuses on:

  • Device Name: Blocking Tray
  • Intended Use: For mounting blocks and/or compensators/modulators for insertion into a Linear Accelerator head.
  • Technological Characteristics: References internal documents (DMR-02 Device Master Record, PD-02 Processing a Blocking Tray Work Order, Acrylic MSDS, Polycarbonate MSDS) which are not provided.
  • Predicate Devices: A list of previously cleared accessory devices from various manufacturers.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, device performance, or study details because it is not present in the provided text.

This type of 510(k) summary typically establishes substantial equivalence by demonstrating that the new device has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics to a legally marketed predicate device, and does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. It does not generally include detailed performance studies with acceptance criteria in the public summary document itself, especially for such a relatively simple accessory device.

Dear Mr. Sweat:

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.
