No
The document describes a traditional radiation therapy planning system with features like image registration, dose calculation, and plan optimization based on user-defined objectives and constraints. There is no mention of AI or ML technologies being used for tasks like automated contouring, predictive modeling, or image analysis beyond standard registration.
No.
The device is a software package for radiation therapy planning, which assists clinicians in formulating treatment plans. It does not directly treat or diagnose a disease.
No
The device is a radiation therapy planning system used to formulate and optimize treatment plans for patients undergoing radiation therapy. It assists clinicians in determining the course of a patient's treatment but does not diagnose diseases or medical conditions.
Yes
The device is described as a "computer software package" and a "software package that runs on a Sun UNIX (or UNIX compliant) computer". While it interacts with hardware (imaging devices, treatment machines), the device itself is presented as the software component for planning.
Based on the provided text, the Pinnacle3 Radiation Therapy Planning System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- Pinnacle3 Function: The Pinnacle3 system is a software package used for planning radiation therapy treatment. It takes image data (CT, MR, PET, etc.) and assists qualified medical personnel in designing a treatment plan to deliver radiation to a patient. It does not analyze biological specimens.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it provides "support for radiation therapy treatment planning" and assists in "formulating a treatment plan." This is a planning tool for a medical procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
Therefore, the Pinnacle3 Radiation Therapy Planning System falls under the category of a medical device used for treatment planning, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Pinnacle3 Radiation Therapy Planning System is a computer software package intended to provide support for radiation therapy treatment planning for the treatment of benign or malignant disease processes.
Pinnacle3 Radiation Therapy Planning System assists the clinician in formulating a treatment plan that maximizes the dose to the treatment volume while minimizing the dose to the surrounding normal tissues. The system is capable of operating in both the forward planning and inverse planning modes.
The device is indicated for use in patients deemed to be acceptable candidates for radiation treatment in the judgment of the clinician responsible for patient care.
Plans generated using this system are used in the determination of the course of a patient's radiation treatment. They are to be evaluated, modified and implemented by qualified medical personnel.

Device Description
Pinnacle3 Radiation Therapy Planning System version 7.2 (hereafter Pinnacle' RTP) provides radiation therapy planning for the treatment of benign or malignant diseases. When using Pinnacle3 RTP, qualified medical personnel may generate, review, verify, approve, print and export the radiation therapy plan prior to patient treatment. Pinnacle RTP can approvide plans for various radiation therapy modalities including External Beam Treatment, Stereotactic Radiosurgery, and Brachytherapy.
Pinnacle3 RTP is a software package that runs on a Sun UNIX (or UNIX compliant) computer and consists of a core software module (Pinnacle') and optional software features. These optional software features, commonly referred to as "plug-ins", are typically distributed separate from the core software product (separate CD-ROM). The device has network capability to other Pinnacle RTP workstations and to both input and output devices via local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN).
Image data is imported from CT, MR, PET, PET-CT and SPECT devices using a DICOMmage atta interface. A qualified medical professional uses the Pinnacles RTP for functions such as viewing and analyzing the patient's anatomy, and generating a radiation therapy plan. The viowing and analyzing are examples of tasks that may be performed by clinicians when using the Pinnacle' RTP system:
- Evaluate the treatment plan based on radiation-sensitive structures and the tumor. ◆
- Combine both geometric and dosimetric planning on the same platform, including CT . simulation data and plans. The CT simulation parts of the system are called AcQSim² and Simulation.
- Configure beam variables such as energy, geometry, and beam modifiers such as blocks, . wedges, multi-leaf collimators, bolus and compensators.
- Visualize the beam on a display, initiate the dose computation, and set the weight of each . beam.
- Obtain dose measurements from any Points of Interest (POI). .
- Perform photon and electron physics modeling, dose algorithm and machine ● commissioning. This functionality is supported by the Physics Utility Module.
- Evaluate images away from the workstation via a laptop or physician group workstation. . The feature that provides remote review is referred to as P3MD.
- Create data for use in conjunction with treatment QA systems. .
- Configure, backup, archive, restore, and scripting. .
- Evaluate Digitally Reconstructed Radiographs (DRRs) on Pinnacle RTP or remote system . using DICOM Secondary Capture (SC) Export.
Once complete, Pinnacle3 RTP has the ability to transfer the finished plan to other devices used in Onec comprete, I minute - Record and Verify, Linear Accelerator (Linac) Workstations and/or 310 Party QA systems.
The following Pinnacle³ RTP features are also available to assist the clinician with the radiation therapy planning process. These features are distributed on standalone CD-ROM media, and installed onto the Pinnacle' RTP workstation. Corresponding instructions for use such as User Guides or Release Notes are also provided to the clinician for each optional feature.
P INKT (Incentines both forward and inverse planning functionality. The system determines a plan that satisfies the user's treatment goals through an optimization process. The user's treatment goals are specified as objectives and constraints based on dose distribution characteristics.
Syntegra (utomates multi-modality image registration and fusion by overlaying images from CT, MR, PET, PET-CT and SPECT devices using a DICOM-compliant interface. This feature provides clinicians with the ability to relate, interpret and contour an image's anatomic and functional information.
In addition to the above, the following software options are available to facilitate image and/or data import and export between radiation therapy devices such as the imaging camera, Pinnacle' RTP, and Record & Verify system. DICOM is the acronym for Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine and is an internationally recognized standard for transferring biomedical information such as images and data between devices or over a network.
DICOM RT software is used to support both Structure Set and Radiation Therapy Plan import and export functions. Structure Sets describe regions and points of interest to other systems. Plan information includes beam geometry and delivery information.
DICOM Image software is used to support image import and export to and from the Pinnacle RTP workstation according to the NEMA DICOM standard, version 3.0. This functionality allows diagnostic imaging devices supporting the DICOM 3.0 standard to interface with the Pinnacle system.
A proprietary interface has been created within the Pinnacles Treatment Planning System to support plan export to Mitsubishi Record and Verify systems. This interface is called the "Mitsubishi DME" system. This is implemented as a simple file based interface according to a format specified by Mitsubishi.
P3MD allows for treatment plan review and minor alternations by a physician from a PC-based workstation that is connected to the same network as the primary Pinnacle Treatment Planning workstation.
