Intended Use
Intended Use: The DVS (Dose Verification System) is intended for use in radiation therapy to verify treatment planning and radiation dose to tissue and organs in or near the irradiated areas of a patient. Indications for Use: The DVS system is specifically indicated for breast cancer to measure photon beam therapy and as an adjunct to treatment planning to permit measurement of the in vivo radiation dose received at the tumor periphery, tumor bed and/or surrounding normal tissues for validation of the prescribed dose.
Device Description
The DVS, Dose Verification System consists of four sub-systems: the DVS Implantable Dosimeter for measuring radiation dose in vivo, the DVS Insertion Tool for implanting the dosimeter during percutaneous procedures, the DVS Reader System (Wand and Base Station) for powering the dosimeter and providing a user interface when taking dose measurements, and the DVS Data System (Plan and Review Software and Dosimetery Database) for storing and reporting patient data and for storing dosimeter information. The dosimeters use a MOSFET, Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor as a sensing mechanism. The dosimeter is factory calibrated and powered by the Reader Wand utilizing electromagnetic energy. The dosimeter contains a transmitter, to transmit threshold voltage readings to the reader. It is radioopague and thus registers on computed tomography scans as a point of interest whereby a point dose may be determined. Patients are implanted prior to radiotherapy. Information on the patient's therapy, dose planning, point dose at the dosimeter, dosimeter serial number and calibration files are entered into the Plan and Review software and stored in the Dosimetry Database. At each therapy fraction the dosimeter is read pre- and post-therapy using the Reader Wand and Base Station. This translates into a daily fractional dose. The patient's daily and cumulative dose may be reviewed via the Plan and Review software. Because the Plan and Review software and Dosimetry Database are designed to be stored on a server, up to 25 users may be logged into the system at any one time. Reports on the patient's daily and cumulative dose history may be printed using the Plan and Review software.
More Information

None

No
The description focuses on hardware components (dosimeter, reader, wand, base station) and software for data storage and reporting. There is no mention of algorithms, learning, or adaptive capabilities that would indicate AI/ML.

No.
The DVS System is designed to measure and verify radiation dose, acting as an adjunct to treatment planning for validation of prescribed doses, rather than directly treating a condition.

Yes

The device is used to verify treatment planning and the radiation dose received by tissues, acting as an "adjunct to treatment planning" to validate the prescribed dose. This ongoing verification of the actual dose received, as opposed to the planned dose, serves a diagnostic function in assessing the effectiveness and accuracy of the radiation therapy.

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components: the DVS Implantable Dosimeter, the DVS Insertion Tool, and the DVS Reader System (Wand and Base Station). While it includes software (Plan and Review Software and Dosimetry Database), it is part of a larger system that relies on physical hardware for data acquisition and interaction.

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 examine these samples outside of the body.
  • DVS Function: The DVS (Dose Verification System) is designed to measure radiation dose in vivo (within the living body) using an implantable dosimeter. It directly measures the radiation received by tissues and organs during radiation therapy.
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: The system does not analyze biological samples taken from the patient. It measures a physical parameter (radiation dose) directly within the body.

Therefore, the DVS falls outside the scope of an In Vitro Diagnostic device. It is a device used for monitoring and verifying radiation dose during a medical treatment procedure.

The DVS (Dose Verification System) is intended for use in radiation therapy to verify treatment planning and radiation dose to tissue and organs in or near the irradiated areas of a patient.

The DVS system is specifically indicated for breast cancer to measure photon beam therapy and as an adjunct to treatment planning to permit measurement of the in vivo radiation dose received at the tumor periphery, tumor bed and/or surrounding normal tissues for validation of the prescribed dose.

Comparison with Predicate Device:

The intended use of the SICEL DVS is identical to predicates such as the Thomson Nielsen Dose Verification System (K932598, K013279, K010472, K032725, and K041557) to verify that the radiation dose delivered corresponds to the dose plan.

The indications for use of the SICEL DVS also are substantially the same as the indications for use of the Thomson Nielsen device. Although the SICEL DVS is indicated for use to measure dose at the tumor's periphery, tumor bed, or in the surrounding tissue, while the Thomson Nielsen device is indicated for use to measure dose delivered "to the patient," the Thomson Nielsen device may be used for intracavity placement and, in conjunction with associated software, is able to calculate the dose delivered within the patient's body as a midline dose.

The technological features of the SICEL DVS are substantially the same as the predicates, including the use of MOSFET technology, as in the Thomson Nielsen device and the OneDose. The calibration, dose range, energy sources measured, and dose management software also are very similar to the Thomson Nielsen device.

There are three technological differences: the DVS is implantable, and because it is implantable materials and duration of use are different, and the DVS is telemetric and not tethered. Several other oncology devices currently marketed including brachytherapy seeds and radiographic marks are similar in size, position of implantation in vivo, use similar implantation techniques and tools, and are designed for permanent implantation. In addition other devices such as the Given Imaging Capsule, Cortemp Ingestible Capsule, and the Verichip Microtransponder, transmit data telemetrically to a reader system. The Given Imaging Capsule, the Jones Tube, and the Verichip Microtransponder also utilize similar materials contained within the DVS implantable dosimeter and are a similar size. Performance studies, pre-clinical studies, and clinical studies contained within the 510(k) are described in sufficient detail to demonstrate that the DVS is safe and effective and that the technological differences described here do not present any new issues of safety and effectiveness compared to

other currently marketed devices.

The DVS, Dose Verification System is calibrated at the factory using the same method as the Thomson Nielsen for evaluating radiation units/volts except that the DVS, Dose Verification System is calibrated under controlled conditions at the factory and the Thomson Nielsen device must be calibrated by the user. Also the OneDose Dosimeter is likewise factory calibrated and the factory calibration is verified by an external ADCL lab in the same manner as the OneDose. The factory calibration procedure is described in sufficient detail within the 510(k) to demonstrate the methods used to assure calibration and the data contained with the performance data section demonstrates that calibrated devices perform within the stated performance specifications of the labeling.

The DVS, Dose Verification System is a sterile, single use dosimeter.

Thus, the DVS, Dose Verification System is substantially equivalent to the Thomson Nielsen Patient Dose Verification System (K932598, K013279, K010472, K032725, and K041557), OneDose Patient Dosimetry System (K040687), and the Symbiosis Bone Biopsy Needle (K925416).
