Intended Use

The ExacTrac gating module is an extension to the ExacTrac patient positioning system. ExacTrac Gating repositions the patient relative to the treatment machine according to breathing induced shifts of a target area, and controls the gating of the treatment beam.

Device Description

ExacTrac® Gating module uses x-ray images acquired before the treatment, to determine the position of fiducial markers that are implanted close to the target region. Via the ExacTrac® infrared cameras, the system can track the breathing motion of IR-reflective markers that are attached to the patient's body. For at least one breathing level of the patient the 3D position of the implanted markers is compared to their expected position based on a previously acquired CT-scan. The patient is then semi-automatically repositioned relative to the treatment machine.

The system generates a signal that can be used to gate a linear accelerator on and off depending on the patients breathing level being in the target region or not.

AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain the detailed information necessary to complete most of the requested fields regarding acceptance criteria and a study design for a medical device.

The document is a 510(k) summary for the ExacTrac® Gating system, indicating it was found substantially equivalent to predicate devices. It describes the intended use and device description, and states that the device "will be verified and validated according to BrainLAB's procedures for product design and development. The validation proves the safety and effectiveness of the system."

However, it does not include:

  • A table of specific acceptance criteria.
  • Reported device performance metrics against those criteria.
  • Details about sample sizes for test or training sets.
  • Data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective).
  • Number or qualifications of experts for ground truth establishment.
  • Adjudication methods.
  • Information about multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness studies.
  • Specifics about standalone algorithm performance studies.
  • The type of ground truth used (e.g., pathology, outcomes data).
  • How ground truth for the training set was established.

The document focuses on regulatory approval (510(k) clearance) based on substantial equivalence to existing devices, rather than a detailed scientific study report.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from the given text.

Dear Mr. Birkenbach:

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 such 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.

{3}------------------------------------------------

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
