Intended Use
BrainLAB VectorVision® Fluoro3D 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 a patient's preoperative image data being processed by a VectorVision workstation. 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 or MR based model of the anatomy. Example procedures include but are not limited to: Spinal Procedures: Spinal implant procedures such as pedicle screw placement. -
Device Description
VectorVision® Fluoro3D intends to enable "touchless" patient registration for operational planning and navigation in surgery. It allows using automatic registered intra-operatively acquired image modalities (e.g. volume data calculated from a set of x-ray images) processed by a VectorVision workstation.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or related concepts like deep learning, neural networks, or training/test sets. The description focuses on image processing and registration based on pre-operative and intra-operative imaging.

No
The device is an image-guided localization system for minimally invasive surgery; it does not directly treat a medical condition.

No

The device is an intraoperative image-guided localization system for minimally invasive surgery, primarily used for navigation and operational planning during procedures, rather than diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly mentions a "freehand probe, tracked by a passive marker sensor system" and a "VectorVision workstation," indicating hardware components are integral to the system.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that the BrainLAB VectorVision® Fluoro3D is an "intraoperative image guided localization system." It uses imaging modalities (CT, X-ray, MR) and a tracking system to guide surgical procedures on the patient's body.
  • No Sample Analysis: There is no mention of analyzing samples taken from the patient. The system works with images and physical tracking relative to the patient's anatomy.

Therefore, the device's function and intended use fall outside the scope of in vitro diagnostics.
