Intended Use
Hitachi's PROBEAT is a medical device designed to produce and deliver a proton beam for the treatment of patients with localized tumors and other conditions susceptible to treatment by radiation.
Device Description
The PROBEAT is a proton beam irradiation system, which provides a therapeutic proton beam for clinical treatment. It is designed to deliver a proton beam with the prescribed dose and dose distribution to the prescribed patient treatment site. The equipment is comprised of two main components. One is a beam delivery system whose primary responsibility is to ensure that the above listed prescription parameters are properly delivered. The other is the equipment necessary to generate the proton beam and direct it to the beam delivery system.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a proton beam therapy system and its components, focusing on beam delivery and generation. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts in the provided text.

Yes

The device description explicitly states that the PROBEAT is a "therapeutic proton beam for clinical treatment" designed to "deliver a proton beam with the prescribed dose and dose distribution to the prescribed patient treatment site." Its intended use is to treat "patients with localized tumors and other conditions susceptible to treatment by radiation," all of which are therapeutic applications.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a "proton beam irradiation system" intended for "treatment of patients with localized tumors and other conditions susceptible to treatment by radiation," indicating a therapeutic rather than diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "proton beam irradiation system" comprised of a "beam delivery system" and "equipment necessary to generate the proton beam," indicating significant hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "produce and deliver a proton beam for the treatment of patients with localized tumors and other conditions susceptible to treatment by radiation." This describes a therapeutic device that directly treats the patient.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on the generation and delivery of a proton beam for clinical treatment, not on analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis. IVDs are designed to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

The PROBEAT is clearly described as a therapeutic medical device used for radiation therapy.

§ 892.5050 Medical charged-particle radiation therapy system.

(a)
Identification. A medical charged-particle radiation therapy system is a device that produces by acceleration high energy charged particles (e.g., electrons and protons) intended for use in radiation therapy. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, treatment planning computer programs, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II. When intended for use as a quality control system, the film dosimetry system (film scanning system) included as an accessory to the device described in paragraph (a) of this section, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.
