Intended Use
The Rotating Gamma System, GammaART 6000 is intended to be used by licensed Medical Professionals for radiation treatment of selected intracranial abnormalities. previously cleared for the OUR Rotating Gamma System and the Leksell Gamma Knife. The Rotating Gamma System, GammaART 6000 is a tele-therapy radiation treatment device intended to be used for stereotactic irradiation of intracranial structures. The device is to be used by licensed medical professionals, having been trained in the use and safety precautions of this device.
Device Description
This 510(k) Special Submission if for a modification to cleared K970647 Rotating Gamma System that has received a motion controller upgrade. The ACS SB214ND 4axis motion controller (P/N: D-000024) has been replaced with the new Galil DMC-2000 5-axis motion controller (P/N: C-000141). The Rotating Gamma System, GammaART 6000 is a tele-therapy device which contains 30 Cobalt-60 sources distributed on a hemispheric shielded source carrier. Inside the source unit is the "built in" secondary collimator which has four sides of collimators and one block position. When not treating, all sources are aligned with the block position of the secondary collimator, which in this case acts as a radiation shutter. Treatment starts with aligning the sources to the prescribed collimator size, then both the source unit and the secondary collimator rotate as one unit. By rotating the Cobalt-60 sources, 30 nonoverlapping full 360 degree arcs are formed, resulting in high focal dose uniformity and small focal spot penumbra.
More Information

No
The summary describes a hardware modification (motion controller upgrade) to a radiation therapy device. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or any of the other sections.

Yes
The device is described as a "tele-therapy radiation treatment device" intended for "stereotactic irradiation of intracranial structures," indicating its use in treating medical conditions.

No

The device description indicates that it is a tele-therapy radiation treatment device used for stereotactic irradiation, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly details hardware components, specifically a tele-therapy device with Cobalt-60 sources, a source carrier, a secondary collimator, and a motion controller. The submission is for a modification to the motion controller, which is a hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "radiation treatment of selected intracranial abnormalities" and "stereotactic irradiation of intracranial structures." This describes a therapeutic device that delivers radiation directly to a patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a "tele-therapy device" containing Cobalt-60 sources for delivering radiation. This is consistent with a radiation therapy device, not a device used to examine specimens from the human body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (blood, tissue, etc.) from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) to treat a condition.

Predicate 510(k) Number K970647

Description:

This 510(k) Special Submission if for a modification to cleared K970647 Rotating Gamma System that has received a motion controller upgrade. The ACS SB214ND 4axis motion controller (P/N: D-000024) has been replaced with the new Galil DMC-2000 5-axis motion controller (P/N: C-000141).

Basis for Submission:

The replacement of the RGS 6000 motion controller is a "control mechanism change" as specified by question B1 of the 510(k) Memorandum #K97-1 from the United States Food and Drug Administration, Office of Device Evaluation dated January 10, 1997. As this change can potentially "raise new issues of safety and effectiveness" (question B.8.3 from the FDA Guidance), a Special 510(k) has been submitted.

Intended use:

The Rotating Gamma System, GammaART 6000 is intended to be used by licensed Medical Professionals for radiation treatment of selected intracranial abnormalities. previously cleared for the OUR Rotating Gamma System and the Leksell Gamma Knife.

Summary of technological characteristics:
