The summary describes a hardware accessory for a surgical microscope that uses fluorescence imaging to visualize blood flow. There is no mention of any software or algorithms that process images or data using AI/ML techniques. The performance study focuses on the hardware's ability to capture sufficient NIR signal.
No.
The device is a surgical microscope accessory used for viewing and visualizing blood flow, not for treating or rehabilitating a condition.
Yes
The device aids in visualizing blood flow and identifying issues like insufficient patency or suboptimal clip placement, enabling surgeons to make judgments and potentially revise procedures, which aligns with the definition of a diagnostic device (providing information for diagnosis or treatment decisions).
No
The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components (microscope, camera, light source, electronic control unit) that are integral to its function. It is not solely software.
Based on the provided information, the Leica FL800 is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "viewing intra-operative blood flow in the cerebral vascular area." This is a direct visualization technique performed in vivo (within the living body) during surgery.
- Device Description: The device is a surgical microscope accessory that uses light and a fluorescent agent (ICG) to visualize blood flow in vivo. It does not analyze samples of bodily fluids or tissues in vitro (outside the living body).
- Anatomical Site: The device is used on the "Cerebral vascular area," which is an anatomical site within the body.
- Mechanism of Action: The device works by exciting a fluorescent agent injected into the patient's bloodstream and then capturing the emitted fluorescence. This is a process that occurs within the patient's body.
IVD devices are typically used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The Leica FL800 is a surgical imaging tool used directly on the patient during a procedure.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol
A validation of concept was performed in Dresden, Germany in September 2005. The CD included in Annex 5 shows one of these cases, and is labeled "fluorescence Vas OH3 Dres." Professor Dr. med G. Shackert, a member of the medical faculty Carl Gustav Carur, Technical University Dresden, Germany performed the test. Although all tests were successful, a number of issues were discovered, including the need for NIR light and white light to reach a closer focus plane. In addition, there was the need to automatically switch video and other user functions to make the unit more OR friendly.
From January to April 2006, the University of Illinois – Chicago had the Leica FL800 installed on a OH3 M520 Microscope in their OR under an IRB. The objective of the study was to examine the use of ICG fluorescence in cerebral vascular surgery. In addition, the University wanted to determine the function of the Leica FL800 and its usefulness in neurosurgy. Five of these cases are provided on the CD included in Annex 5.
Methodology: An IRB form was filed with the University of Illinois IRB Committee and approved. Patients were given consent forms and procedures were performed based on the normal flow of patients to the OR. All cases were performed under white light until they got to the point of cerebral vascular interest. At that point, an ICG Fluorescence baseline video was taken. This image was recorded on a digital recording station. After the procedure was performed (for example, STA-MCA), an additional ICG fluorescence was performed and recorded. In each bypass case, the results were followed up with a sonogram that confirmed that the qualitative ICG fluorescence was correct in terms of the sonogram. Each patient was followed up with a postoperative angiography. Two levels of output were tried one allowing only 20% of the NIR and the other allowing 40% of NIR to be sent to the Sony NIR camera.
Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Clinical Test: In the 18 cases, the Leica FL800 performed well. However, in the 7 cases performed under 20% NIR, the signal was too weak for consistent excellent quality. In the 11 cases performed under 40% NIR, the results were all excellent; and therefore, the Leica FL800 specification and test parameter was fixed at "NIR signal to camera must exceed 40% of available NIR light."
Conclusion of Clinical Validation: The Leica FL800 proved to be successful in the visualization of blood flow. On two occasions, the surgeon chose to revise his anastomosis based on the insufficient patency of his bypass. In all other bypass cases, the Leica FL800 confirmed that the bypass was patent as desired. In one aneurysm case, the Leica FL800 clearly showed that the clipping was not optimal and needed revision. In the other aneurysm cases, the Leica FL800 confirmed a successful clip placement.

1. The legally marketed device to which Leica Microsystems is claiming equivalence:
Novadaq SPY Intra-operative Imaging System (K042961)
2. Description of the Leica FL800:
Summary: The Leica FL800 device is a surgical microscope accessory used for viewing intra-operative blood flow in the cerebral vascular area. It allows the surgical microscope to produce excitation light and resolve florescence light from the fluorescent agent ICG.
A. Design Configuration
The Leica FL800 is an accessory to the Leica M520 OH3 Neurosurgical Microscope. The Leica FL800 is part of a surgical microscope system, which is comprised of five components, as listed below:
- İ. Standard Leica M520 OH3 Microscope (Class I exempt)
- ii. Sony XC-E150 NIR (near infra-red) camera (part of Leica FL800 upgrade)
- iii. Leica Dual CCD Surgical Microscope Camera Adapter (part of Leica FL800 upgrade)
- İV. Leica modification of standard 300 Watt Xe light source (part of
1
Leica FL800 upgrade)
- Leica FL800 electronic control unit (part of Leica FL800 V. upgrade)
- ICG Fluorescence Dye (labeled for use with the Leica FL800) vi.
Each component is briefly described below. The M520 OH3 brochure is included as Annex 1, and the Leica FL800 proposed brochure is included as Annex 2.
Standard M520 OH3 Microscope - This microscope is Leica's highi. end surgical microscope and is presently a Class I exempt device (Sec. 8 night surgical microscope and accessories). It is a fully balanced microscope that offers configurations for craniotomy, spine and other forms of neurosurgery. (Annex 1 contains the OH3 commercial brochure.)
Image /page/1/Picture/5 description: In the image, a person is standing next to a large machine with an arm extending above them. The person appears to be interacting with the machine, possibly operating or inspecting it. The machine has a complex structure with multiple components and a base that sits on the floor. The background is plain and does not provide much context about the location.
Leica FL800 Component: Sony XCE 150 NIR (near infra-red) ii. Camera -
This camera is an off-the-shelf Sony CCD designed principally for NIR imaging. Leica does not modify this camera in any way
2
Image /page/2/Picture/0 description: The image is a close-up shot of a CCD camera. The camera is black and has a cylindrical lens on the front. The camera has a square body with some buttons on the top. The words "CCD" and "XC-ST50" are printed on the side of the camera.
iii. Leica FL800 Component: Dual CCD Surgical Microscope Camera Adapter -
The dual camera adapter was built specifically by Leica Heerbrugg Switzerland for the Leica FL800. It consists of two camera ports and one 820 nm plus reflective filter. The first camera is the NIR Sony camera mentioned above, and the second camera is a standard medical approved white light imaging camera of the customer's choice.
Image /page/2/Figure/3 description: The image shows a microscope with two cameras attached to it. The camera on the left is labeled as a Sony NIR camera, and the camera on the right is labeled as a standard white light camera. There is also a label indicating that there is an 820 nm filter to reflect ICG fluorescence.
iv. Leica FL800 Component: Modified Xe Light Source -
The standard M520 OH3 uses a 300-watt Xe light source. As a normal standard of precaution, Leica filters all light higher than 720 nm. For the Leica
3
FL800, this filtering is modified to permit replacing the normal filter (Filter 1) with Filter 2, which allows a greater spectrum of Xe light (including the 805 nm) to flow to the surgical site. Filter 2 does not allow light through in the fluorescence range of 835 nm, as this light would wash out the fluorescence of the ICG. See charts below for spectra output of normal surgical light (Filter 1) and white light with 805 nm excitation allowed through.
Image /page/3/Figure/1 description: The image shows two graphs, one for illumination filter I and one for illumination filter II. Both graphs show the eye sensitivity spectrum, excitation spectrum, and emission spectrum. The x-axis of both graphs represents the wavelength in nanometers, ranging from 400 to 800. The y-axis represents the intensity, ranging from 0 to 1.0.

v. Leica FL800 Component: Electronic Control Unit -
The existing M520 OH3 Microscope has an additional control unit that allows the customer to simultaneously perform the following functions by using a single button:
- Exchange Filter 1 for Filter 2, allowing 805 excitation light. a.
- b. Switch video output from white light to NIR light.
- Allow optional injection of image to eyepiece and C. customer's video recorder to begin recording.
- The system will reset to the normal (Filter 1 in and white ರ. light video on) in three minutes, should surgeon forget to turn the unit off after the ICG has flowed.
Image /page/4/Picture/6 description: The image shows a close-up of the back panel of an electronic device. The panel has several ports labeled with text such as "LVG-LIGHT IN", "VIS IN", "OUT", "DOCUMENTATION NIBIN", "VISIN", "OUT", and "CAN". Cables are plugged into some of the ports, indicating that the device is in use or ready for connection. The panel appears to be made of metal and is attached to a larger piece of equipment.
Image /page/4/Picture/7 description: The image shows a close-up of a piece of machinery. The machinery is white and has a label on it that reads "ILLUMINATION MODULE". There are also some wires and cables visible. The image is grainy and the lighting is poor.

Leica FL800 Component: Fluorescent Agent - Akorn ICG vi. (Indocyanine - Green) -
The Leica FL800 is labeled for use with Akorn Inc.'s Indocyanine-Green (ICG), a green dye that temporarily binds with serum albumin, its fluorescent agent. When exposed to 805 nm NIR light, this agent causes fluorescence at 835 nm. The system's NIR camera captures the fluorescence, and can thereby image blood coursing through the circulatory system. Acorn's ICG is FDA-approved and indicated for "determining cardiac output, hepatic function and liver blood flow, and for ophthalmic angiography."
The use of ICG for viewing intra-operative blood flow in the cerebral vascular area in the present instance presents no material distinction from its approved uses in the eye, heart, and liver. When, for example, ICG is used for imaging vasculature in the back of the eye, it is injected intravenously. The eye and brain share the same source of blood supply – the carotid arteries. Because the dye disperses throughout the circulatory system rapidly upon injection, it will travel to the brain just as it travels to the vasculature actually observed via angiography in the eye. Consequently, approved use of ICG for viewing the vasculature involves the dispersal of ICG into the cerebral vasculature as well.
Note: The Leica FL800 uses the ICG in the identical dose and route of administration as the Akorn product is labeled. The Akorn product has been used in this manner for forty years. Each time ICG was used for retinal angiography in the past forty years, the ICG drug flowed through the cerebral vascular area. The Leica FL800 does not change this in any way. The Leica FL800 allows the surgeon to see the ICG as it is seen in retinal angiography and by cardiac surgeons using the Novadag SPY device.
A copy of the Akorn ICG drug insert is included as Annex 4.
Image /page/5/Picture/5 description: The image shows two vials of IC-GREEN. The vial on the left has a label that reads "NDC 17478-701-02, 25 mg, IC-GREEN, Sterile Indocyanine Green". The vial on the right has a label that reads "10 mL, Aqueous Solvent for IC-GREEN, Sterile indocyanine Green". The vials appear to be medication.

Image /page/6/Figure/1 description: The image is a diagram of a Leica FL800 Dual Video Adapter system. The diagram includes labels for various components such as the OR Monitor, NIR-CCD, ICG-Filter, VIS-CCD, Leica FL800 Dual Video Adapter, Leica OH3 light Source, and the object being viewed. The diagram shows the path of light through the system, from the light source to the object and then to the cameras.
Principles of Clinical Operation B.
The system starts with a standard M520 OH3 Surgical Microscope, which has been sold by Leica in the United States for several years (Annex 1 for commercial brochure). The M520 OH3, as noted, is a Class I exempt device (Sec 878.4700, Surgical microscope and accessories). The Leica FL800 is added to the M520 OH3 unit by a Leica service technician and it is ready to be used. The dual CCD camera adapter and additional NIR camera are the only easily recognized changes.

When a surgeon wishes to use the Leica FL800, he/she pushes one button. This one button exchanges Filter 1 for Filter 2, allowing the 805 nm light through and switches the video output from white light to NIR. The surgeon then has the ICG injected intravenously through a central venous line according to the drug's already existing labeling. The bolus of the ICG will now flow through three phases: arterial, capillary, and venous. The three images below represent the three phases:
Image /page/7/Picture/1 description: The image shows a black and white angiogram of the brain. The blood vessels are highlighted in white, and they appear to be branching out from the center of the brain. The image is somewhat blurry, but the major blood vessels are still visible. The angiogram is likely used to diagnose or monitor conditions that affect the blood vessels in the brain.
Bolus passage after 2 seconds: arterial view
Image /page/7/Picture/3 description: This image appears to be a medical scan, possibly an angiogram or similar imaging technique used to visualize blood vessels. The scan shows a complex network of vessels, likely in the head or brain region, with varying degrees of brightness and contrast. The image is primarily in grayscale, with the vessels appearing as bright, contrasting structures against a darker background.
Bolus passage after 5 seconds capilary view
Image /page/7/Picture/5 description: The image shows a black and white X-ray of a human brain. The X-ray shows the blood vessels in the brain. The blood vessels are white and the brain tissue is dark. The image is grainy and has a low resolution.
Bolus passage after 9 seconds venous view
At the end of the venous view, the surgeon can elect to turn the Leica FL800 off or it will turn off automatically after three minutes. When turned off, the video output will return to white light from NIR light.

3. Intended use of the Leica FL800
The Leica FL800 is attended to allow neurosurgeons to view blood a. flow. It will be used in cranial surgery in assessing vessels, which may have any of the following conditions:
-
- Before and after by-pass surgery
-
- Before and after aneurysm surgery
-
- Before and after AV malformation surgery
-
- Before tumor surgery to evaluate blood flow
b. Patient population will be all patients undergoing one of the above neurosurgical procedures.
c. The Novadaq SPY device is used in the identical way and for the identical purpose of visualizing the blood flow through vessels. The Leica FL800 will use a before and after image like the Novadaq Spy to view the change that the surgical procedure has had on blood flow.
4. Technological Characteristics compared to the Novadaq SPY device.
The Leica FL800 also possesses the same or similar technological characteristics as the predicate devices. As noted, the Leica FL800 is the same device as the exempt M520 OH3 with the addition of a module that enables viewing of blood flow. The Novadaq SPY employs a similar system for visual assessment of the coronary vasculature that comprises the Leica FL380 module. Importantly, like the instant device, the Novadaq SPY uses ICG as its fluorescent agent, an 005 nm light source for excitation of the ICG, and an 835 nm fluorescence camera for viewing intra-operative blood flow. Minor technological differences do exist. The Novadaq SPY uses a laser diode as its light source for ICG excitation, whereas the Leica FL800 module uses a specially filtered 300-watt Xenon light source. This minor difference does not raise any new questions regarding safety or effectiveness. The Leica FL 800 produces roughly the same energy as the laser diode in the 805 nm range. Furthermore, the Leica FL800's energy level is below ANSI standards, as explained below in Section 15. The white light of the microscope continues to run, allowing the surgeon to visualize normally through the microscope even during NRR imaging. This circumstance is not present in the use of the Novadaq laser diode light source, as the Novadaq has no ability to image normal white light. In the Leica FL800, the white light is relied on for observing through the microscope as discussed above, and white light imaging is critical to the surgeon for the indicated use of the standard exempt M520 OH3 microscope.
Because the Leica FL800 possesses the same or similar intended use, indications, and technological characteristics as the identified predicate device, with no new questions of safety or effectiveness present, the company submits that the device can be found substantially equivalent.

Non-clinical Performance Data - Leica tests each Leica FL800 with a 5. Pulsion Phantom that is specifically designed to test ICG fluorescence camera systems. This test has proven reliable, but will be reviewed to insure it is the best quality standard for this system. The test has been performed for many years in the retinal angiogram field.
6. Clinical Validation -
Validation: A validation of concept was performed in Dresden, a. Germany in September 2005. The CD included in Annex 5 shows one of these cases, and is labeled "fluorescence Vas OH3 Dres." Professor Dr. med G. Shackert, a member of the medical faculty Carl Gustav Carur, Technical University Dresden, Germany performed the test. Although all tests were successful, a number of issues were discovered, including the need for NIR light and white light to reach a closer focus plane. In addition, there was the need to automatically switch video and other user functions to make the unit more OR friendly.
Clinical Test: From January to April 2006, the University of Illinois – b. Chicago had the Leica FL800 installed on a OH3 M520 Microscope in their OR under an IRB. The objective of the study was to examine the use of ICG fluorescence in cerebral vascular surgery. In addition, the University wanted to determine the function of the Leica FL800 and its usefulness in neurosurgey. Five of these cases are provided on the CD included in Annex 5.
Methodology: An IRB form was filed with the University of Illinois IRB C. Committee and approved. Patients were given consent forms and procedures were performed based on the normal flow of patients to the OR. All cases were performed under white light until they got to the point of cerebral vascular interest. At that point, an ICG Fluorescence baseline video was taken. This image was recorded on a digital recording station. After the procedure was performed (for example, STA-MCA), an additional ICG fluorescence was performed and recorded. In each bypass case, the results were followed up with a sonogram that confirmed that the qualitative ICG fluorescence was correct in terms of the sonogram. Each plient was followed up with a postoperative angiography. Two levels of optited were tried one allowing only 20% of the NIR and the other allowing 40% of NIR to be sent to the Sony NIR camera.
Results: In the 18 cases, the Leica FL800 performed well. However, in ರ. the 7 cases performed under 20% NIR, the signal was too weak for consistent excellent quality. In the 11 cases performed under 40% NIR, the results were all excellent; and therefore, the Leica FL800 specification and test parameter was fixed at "NIR signal to camera must exceed 40% of available NIR light."
Conclusion of Clinical Validation: The Leica FL800 proved to be e. successful in the visualization of blood flow. On two occasions, the surgeon chose to revise his anastomosis based on the insufficient patency of his bypass. In all other bypass cases, the Leica FL800 confirmed that the bypass was patent as
10
desired. In one aneurysm case, the Leica FL800 clearly showed that the clipping was not optimal and needed revision. In the other aneurysm cases, the Libb FL800 confirmed a successful clip placement.
Conclusion of Clinical and Non-clinical Validation Compared to Novadaq 7. SPY - The conclusions from the clinical validation Comparied to Nov
demonstrate that the Leins FLOO demonstrate that the Leica FL800 is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the Novadaq SPY device.
