No
The summary describes a laser system for skin treatments and soft tissue procedures. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven algorithms in the intended use, device description, or other sections. The device appears to be a traditional laser technology.
Yes
The device is intended for "superficial skin ablation resulting in skin dermabrasion, and the treatment of wrinkles" and "coagulation, vaporization, ablation, or cutting of soft tissue (skin)", which are therapeutic applications.
No
The "Intended Use" section describes the device's function as "superficial skin ablation resulting in skin dermabrasion, and the treatment of wrinkles" and "coagulation, vaporization, ablation, or cutting of soft tissue." These are therapeutic or surgical interventions, not diagnostic procedures.
No
The device description explicitly details hardware components such as a cabinet housing power supply, cooling system, and electronics, as well as umbilical cables and a hand piece housing the laser. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The MLT Erbium: YAG Laser System is a laser device used for direct treatment of the skin and soft tissue through ablation, coagulation, vaporization, and cutting. It operates externally on the patient's body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes procedures performed directly on the patient's skin and soft tissue, not the analysis of specimens taken from the body.
Therefore, based on the provided information, this device falls under the category of a therapeutic or surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
