More Information

No
The document describes a laser device for tattoo and lesion removal and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

Yes
The device is used for medical treatments like the removal of dark tattoos and the treatment of pigmented lesions, which are therapeutic applications.

No
The device's intended use is for treatment (removal of dark tattoos, treatment of pigmented lesions) through selective photothermolysis and photo-acoustic effects, not for diagnostic purposes.

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including a system console, control and display panel, and delivery handpiece(s) (Treatment Heads), in addition to software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that this device is a laser treatment head used for procedures performed directly on the patient's skin (removal of tattoos and treatment of pigmented lesions). It operates through selective photothermolysis and photo-acoustic effects on target chromophores within the tissue.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological samples taken from the patient. Its function is to deliver laser energy to the patient's body.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a therapeutic or surgical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
