Intended Use
Simulix Evolution is a radiation therapy simulation system is intended to prepare patients for radiation therapy. The Simulator emulates the geometrical positions of radiation therapy treatment machines. Using conventional radiographic and fluorographic system, patients are positioned, filmed and marked to prepare them for treatment. The Ocentra Cone Beam CT option for the Simulis Evolution Radiotion Therapy Simulator is intended to assist the Radiation Oncologist in acquiring 3D "multi slice" planning data in patient set-ups for the purpose of radiation therapy treatment planning and patient positioning
Device Description
Oncentra ConeBeam is an extension to the Nucletron Simulix Evolution system. The Simulix Evolution is a Radiation Therapy Simulation System which is to be used in radiation therapy simulation, using a fluoroscopic and/or radiographic x-ray system for visualizing the volume to be exposed during radiation therapy and confirming the position and size of the therapeutic irradiation field to be applied. The Simulix Evolution is previously cleared under 510(k) #k033470. The Oncentra ConeBeam extension will give the Simulix Evolution system the capability to acquire Computer Tomography (CT) images. This is done by means of scanning the patient with a cone shaped X-ray beam. The cone shaped beam gives the possibility to acquire CT image information of a volume instead of CT image information of a single slice as with conventional fan beam CT. The images acquired with Oncentra ConeBeam will be used for the purpose of radiation therapy planning and to check the positioning of the patient.
More Information

No
The document describes a radiation therapy simulation system with a Cone Beam CT extension. It focuses on image acquisition and positioning for treatment planning. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts in the provided text.

No

This device is a simulation system intended to prepare patients for radiation therapy and assist in treatment planning and patient positioning, not to deliver therapeutic radiation itself. While it's used in the context of radiation therapy, its function is diagnostic/planning, not therapeutic.

Yes

This device acquires imaging data (X-ray, CT) used to prepare patients for radiation therapy, including treatment planning and patient positioning. While it doesn't diagnose disease, its function in acquiring data for planning and positioning falls under the broader definition of a diagnostic device in a medical context, as it provides information about the patient's anatomy relevant to their treatment.

No

The device description explicitly states that the Oncentra ConeBeam is an "extension" to the Simulix Evolution system, which is a "Radiation Therapy Simulation System using a fluoroscopic and/or radiographic x-ray system". It describes acquiring CT images by "scanning the patient with a cone shaped X-ray beam". This clearly indicates the involvement of hardware components (x-ray system, scanning mechanism) beyond just software.

Based on the provided text, 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.
  • Device Function: The Simulix Evolution and its Oncentra Cone Beam CT option are described as systems used for radiation therapy simulation and planning. They use imaging modalities (X-ray, CT) to visualize the patient's anatomy and prepare them for radiation treatment.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples from the patient. The system focuses on imaging and geometrical positioning.

Therefore, the device falls under the category of medical imaging and simulation systems used in radiation oncology, not In Vitro Diagnostics.
