No
The device description focuses on the physical characteristics and operation of a pulsed dye laser system, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".
Yes
The device is indicated for various medical treatments, including photocoagulation of benign cutaneous vascular lesions, treatment of port wine stains, hemangiomas, scars, psoriasis, wrinkles, and inflammatory acne vulgaris. These indications demonstrate its use in treating medical conditions or altering the structure or function of the body, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
The device description and intended use clearly state that the Candela Family of Pulsed Dye Laser Systems is used for "photocoagulation" and "treatment" of various benign lesions and conditions. There is no mention of diagnosis or any diagnostic capabilities.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "flash-lamp excited pulse dye medical laser" and describes hardware components like an optical fiber, handpiece, and control panel. This is clearly a hardware-based medical device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Function: The Candela Family of Pulsed Dye Laser Systems is a laser system that delivers energy to the skin for the treatment of various cutaneous and vascular lesions. It directly interacts with the patient's body for therapeutic purposes.
- Lack of Sample Analysis: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples. The device is used for direct treatment on the patient.
Therefore, the device's function and intended use clearly fall outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostics.

Device Description
The Candela Family of Pulsed Dye Laser Systems are 585, 595nm flash-lamp excited pulse dye medical lasers, indicated for the following uses:
General Surgery: Photocoagulation of benign cutaneous vascular lesions and benign cutaneous lesions.
The laser output energy is delivered via an optical fiber to a handpiece, which produces circular beams with diameters of 3, 7 or 10, 12 or 3x10 millimeters on the skin..
The Candela Family of Pulsed Dye Laser Systems is equipped with safety interlock systems to The Canationts and operators. Users of the device make selections from an onboard control panel to regulate operation during treatment.
