Intended Use
The TraxyLoc™-1 System is a near-real time, image-guided accessory to mammography equipment designed to stabilize a patient's breast and assist a qualified physician in performing a pre-surgical, stereotactic needle localization procedure to target one or more mammographically previously discovered abnormalities for subsequent biopsy or other procedures.
Device Description
The TraxyLoc™-1 System is designed for, pre-surgical use in a stereotactic needle localization procedure to target mammographically previously discovered breast abnormalities. The device provides breast stabilization and needle guidance for accurate placement of localization needles at positions of suspected abnormalities in the breast. The device is intended for appropriately trained and qualified physicians, radiologists, and radiology/medical technicians who have previously performed manual and/or stereotactic needle localizations procedures. The TraxyLoc™-1 System stabilizes the breast in a compression unit which is attached to the mammography equipment. After obtaining two images sterentactically (horizontal and vertical images) the previously identified breast artifact is identified and located on the Overlay Grids. The view orientation and artifact location data is then entered into the Traxalign™ software and the system settings for performing a needle localization are obtained. The localization needle is southings to personally holder. The needle holder is then placed onto the guidance frame as per the software directions. The needle is inserted into the breast as per a typical manual needle localization procedure. At least one confirmatory mammography image should be taken to ensure the position of the needle.

No
The description details a mechanical and software-assisted system for needle localization based on user input of coordinates from stereotactic images. There is no mention of automated image analysis, pattern recognition, or learning algorithms that would indicate AI/ML. The software appears to be a calculation and guidance tool based on user-provided data.

No.
The device is an accessory to mammography equipment designed to assist in performing a pre-surgical, stereotactic needle localization procedure. It aids in diagnosis and procedure guidance rather than directly treating a disease or condition.

No

The device is an accessory to mammography equipment designed to assist in pre-surgical stereotactic needle localization procedures. It is used to stabilize the breast and guide needle placement for biopsy or other procedures, not for making a diagnosis itself.

No

The device description explicitly mentions hardware components like a compression unit, guidance frame, and needle holder, which are integral to its function and are not solely software.

Based on the provided information, the TraxyLoc™-1 System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • TraxyLoc™-1 Function: The TraxyLoc™-1 System is an accessory to mammography equipment used during a medical procedure (stereotactic needle localization) on the patient's body. It assists in guiding a needle for subsequent biopsy or other procedures. It does not analyze specimens taken from the body.

The device's function is to aid in a surgical/interventional procedure, not to perform diagnostic testing on biological samples.

Summary of Performance Studies

Bench testing was performed to ensure that the device performs as intended. All testing demonstrated satisfactory performance of the device.

  • The image quality of the breast artifact with the device is equivalent to current . standards.
  • The breast stabilizer compresses the breast comfortably, does not impact . image quality, and does not uncompress during the procedure.
  • The software accuracy of the needle placement is +/-1mm. Note this accuracy . is dependent upon accurate user data input, needle straightness, breast density and user attention to needle assembly positioning. At least one and sometimes a pair of post needle localization confirmatory X-ray images are required as part of standard practice.

Key Metrics

software accuracy of the needle placement is +/-1mm.
