No
The summary describes a cryosurgical unit with argon-cooled probes for tissue destruction. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or any of the provided sections. The use of imaging modalities (MRI, ultrasound) is for visualization, not for AI/ML processing.

Yes
The device is used to destroy tissue during surgical procedures for various medical conditions, indicating a therapeutic purpose.

No

The device is described as a "cryosurgical tool" intended for the "cryogenic destruction of tissue during surgical procedures." It is used for ablation of various tissues and lesions, not for diagnosing them. While it "may be used with a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) device or an ultrasound device to provide real-time visualization of the cryosurgical procedure," these imaging devices are external and used for guidance, not for the SeedNet Family itself to perform a diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Cryosurgical unit with argon-cooled probes," indicating it includes hardware components (the unit and probes) for performing the cryosurgical procedure.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the SeedNet Family is for the "cryogenic destruction of tissue during surgical procedures." This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform such tests.
  • Device Description: The description is of a "Cryosurgical unit with argon-cooled probes," which is a surgical tool, not a diagnostic test kit or instrument.
  • Anatomical Site: The device is used on various anatomical sites within the body, not on samples taken from the body.

The use of imaging modalities like MRI or ultrasound is for guiding the surgical procedure, not for performing an in vitro diagnostic test.

  • SeedNet Family, Galil Medical.
  • 『 CryoCare CS system.
  • E Visica system.

Intended Use:

The SeedNet Family is intended for cryogenic destruction of tissue during surgical procedures. The SeedNet Family is indicated for use as a cryosurgical tool in the fields of general surgery, dermatology, neurology (including cryoanalgesia), thoracic surgery, ENT, gynecology, oncology, proctology, and urology. The system is designed to destroy tissue by the application of extreme cold temperatures including prostate and kidney tissue, liver metastases, tumors, skin lesions, and warts.

  • I Urology (ablation of prostate tissue in cases of prostate cancer and Benign Prostate Hyperplasia "BPH")
  • 트 Oncology (ablation of cancerous or malignant tissue and benign tumors, and palliative intervention).
  • 트 Dermatology (ablation or freezing of skin cancers and other cutaneous disorders. Destruction of warts or lesions, angiomas, sebaceous hyperplasia, basal cell tumors of the eyelid or canthus area, ulcerated basal cell tumors, dermatofibromas small hemanglomas, mucocele cysts, multiple warts, plantar warts, actinic and seborrheic keratoses, cavernous hemanglomas, perianal condylomata, and palliation of tumors of the skin)
  • . Gynecology (ablation of malignant neoplasia or benign dysplasia of the female genitalia)

  • General surgery (palliation of tumors of the rectum, l hemorrhoids, anal fissures, pilonidal cysts, and recurrent cancerous lesions, ablation of breast fibroadenomas.)
  • ENT (Palliation of tumors of the oral cavity and ablation of u leukoplakia of the mouth).
  • . Thoracic surgery (ablation of arrhythmic cardiac tissue cancerous lesions)
  • 트 Proctology (ablation of benign or malignant growths of the anus or rectum, and hemorrhoids)

The SeedNet Family may be used with a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) device or an ultrasound device to provide real-time visualization of the cryosurgical procedure.

Performance Data & Substantial Equivalence:

The Indications for Use of the current SeedNet Family is expanded to include the specific indication of ablation of breast fibroadenomas. The only change between the current and the cleared indications of the SeedNet Family is the addition of this indication to the cleared General Surgery specific indications. This indication of breast fibroadenomas is claimed by both the 510(k)-cleared CryoCare CS system and Visica system. All systems are cryo-surgery systems, which employ similar performance characteristics. In all other aspects including technological characteristics, software, user interface and principles of operation, the SeedNet Family described in this submission is substantially equivalent to the cleared SeedNet Family.

Therefore, Galil Medical Ltd. believes that the SeedNet Family described in this submission is substantially equivalent to the combination of its predicate devices; the cleared SeedNet Family (the SeedNet™; the SeedNetGold™ , the CryoThera™ and the Cryo-Hit™), the CryoCare CS and the Visica systems, and does not raise any new questions of safety and/or effectiveness.

Dear Mr. Kahan:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of November 18, 2005.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
