No
The summary describes a light-based photocoagulation device with standard components and controls, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities, image processing, or data sets typically associated with AI/ML devices.
Yes
The device is intended for "photocoagulation of soft tissue in dermatologic applications including but not limited to the treatment of warts and tattoos," which constitutes a medical treatment.
No
The device description states its purpose is for "photocoagulation of soft tissue" for treatment, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including a handpiece, power source, chiller, and footswitch, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.
Based on the provided information, the LuxIR device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "photocoagulation of soft tissue in dermatologic applications". This describes a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description details a system that delivers infrared light to the skin for treatment. This is consistent with a therapeutic device, not a device used to examine specimens outside the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The LuxIR's function is to treat tissue, not to diagnose or analyze.

Device Description
The Palomar LuxIR Handpiece delivers infrared light with a wavelength of 850-1350 & 1700-2500 nm. The complete system consists of a power source, chiller, a footswitch, and a handpiece connected to the power unit with an umbilical. In standard use, the handpiece is held in firm contact with the skin. The handpiece tip is water-cooled to provide active skin cooling. System parameters and other system features are controlled from the user interface panel on top of the power unit.
