Intended Use
MammoSource is indicated for high-dose-rate remotely controlled afterloading brachytherapy for the treatment of breast cancer and other cancers that can be treated with a single channel HDR system.
Device Description
The GammaMed Plus device has been modified to reduce the number of channels from 24 channels to one channel that will simplify the device and make the MammoSource ideal for treating breast tumors with the MammoSite RTS applicators, K011690 and K030558, as well as other cancers where a single channel HDR system would be useful. The system is designed to provide a predetermined dose of radiation to tissue and organs by means of manipulating a radioactive source from a shielded position within in the device into a catheter, applicator, or needle, which has been placed within or on a patient.
More Information

No
The summary describes a modified brachytherapy device for delivering radiation, focusing on mechanical and functional changes (reducing channels). There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices.

Yes
Explanation: The device is described as a high-dose-rate remotely controlled afterloading brachytherapy system for the treatment of breast cancer and other cancers, directly indicating its therapeutic purpose.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a high-dose-rate remotely controlled afterloading brachytherapy system for cancer treatment, which delivers radiation rather than diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly describes a hardware device (GammaMed Plus) that has been modified, and it manipulates a radioactive source. This is not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "high-dose-rate remotely controlled afterloading brachytherapy for the treatment of breast cancer and other cancers." This describes a therapeutic procedure performed directly on a patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from a patient.
  • Device Description: The device description details a system that delivers radiation to tissue and organs within or on a patient. This is a treatment delivery system, not a diagnostic device that analyzes biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing information about a patient's health status based on such analysis.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The MammoSource device is a therapeutic device used to treat cancer.
