Intended Use

The Varian Eclipse device is used to plan photon and electron radiation therapy treatments employing linear accelerators, and electron energies from 1-50 MeV. Eclipse will plan the 3D in t , as won as Obout ouj and breat to combined modality plans, coplanar and non-coplanar fields, static and ARC fields, beam modifiers, and beam intensity modulators.

Eclipse also includes tools for treatment preparation (diagnostic image and analysis, contouring and segmentation) and plan review.

Device Description

The Varian Eclipse™ Treatment Planning System has been modified to include a new a new photon dose calculation algorithm, Analytical Anisotropic Algorithm (AAA). The AAA dose calculation model is a 3D convolution/superposition algorithm that models primary photons, photons scattered in the medium, contamination electrons and transport electrons near tissue heterogeneities. The AAA dose calculation model is comprised of two main components, one being the configuration algorithm and the other one the actual dose calculation algorithm.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for Varian Medical Systems' "Eclipse with AAA" device, along with the FDA's clearance letter. This type of regulatory document primarily focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device and outlining the intended use and technological characteristics.

It does not contain the specific information requested regarding acceptance criteria, device performance studies, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or detailed ground truth methodologies.

The 510(k) summary states that the Eclipse with AAA is a modification of an existing device (Varian Eclipse, K030981) and includes a new photon dose calculation algorithm (Analytical Anisotropic Algorithm - AAA). It mentions that "The Substantial Equivalence Comparison Chart provides a comparison of the technological characteristics to those of the predicate devices. This chart is located in Tab 8 of the submission." However, "Tab 8" is not included in the provided text.

Therefore,Based on the provided text, I cannot answer the questions regarding acceptance criteria, study details, and performance evaluations. The document focuses on regulatory clearance by demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than detailed performance study results.

Dated: July 9, 2004 Received: July 12, 2004

Dear Ms. Tran:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device We nave reviewed your we 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 may or subject 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.

{2}------------------------------------------------

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 promated predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
