No
The document describes a pulsed light therapy system with a microcontroller for control, but there is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven algorithms typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.

Yes
Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section clearly lists the treatment of various medical conditions such as psoriasis, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis, and vascular lesions, which defines it as a therapeutic device.

No

The device description and intended uses indicate that the CoolTouch PRIMA Pulsed Light Therapy System is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one. It delivers pulsed light for treatment, not for identifying or characterizing a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as a control console unit, handpiece, and footswitch, indicating it is a physical medical device that utilizes pulsed light therapy.

Based on the provided information, the CoolTouch PRIMA Pulsed Light Therapy System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for the treatment of various skin conditions and for procedures like hair removal and tattoo removal. IVDs are used to diagnose diseases or conditions by examining samples from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue).
  • Device Description: The description details a system that delivers pulsed light to the treatment site on the body. This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one that analyzes biological samples.
  • No Mention of Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device interacting with or analyzing any biological samples.
  • Therapeutic Modality: Pulsed light therapy is a therapeutic modality, not a diagnostic one.

Therefore, the CoolTouch PRIMA Pulsed Light Therapy System is a therapeutic device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
