No
The device description focuses on mechanical components for cranial stabilization and support during surgery, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
No
The device is a mechanical support system for cranial stabilization during head and neck surgery, not a therapeutic device designed to treat or cure a disease or condition.
No
The document describes a cranial stabilization and support system used during head and neck surgery with intra-operative CT or MR imaging. It provides mechanical support and fixation, not diagnostic information or analysis.
No
The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components made of various materials (NOVOTEX, POM, PEEK, Polyurethan, Yttried Zirconium, Titanium) that are part of the system for cranial stabilization and support. There is no mention of software being the primary or sole component.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. They are used outside the body.
- Device Function: The described device is a mechanical support system used during surgery to stabilize the head and neck. It is a physical tool used directly on the patient's body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "head and neck surgery when rigid skeletal fixation is required for cranial stabilization" or "when non-invasive head support is required." This is a surgical support function, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen.
- Device Description: The description details the physical components and how they are used to position and stabilize the head during surgery. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples.
Therefore, the DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Cranial Stabilization and Halo Systems are surgical support devices, not In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

Device Description
The DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Cranial Stabilization and Halo Systems are for use in open and percutaneous craniotomies and spinal surgeries when rigid skeletal fixation is necessary (Skull Clamp with Skull Pins) or when secured noninvasive cranial stabilization (Horseshoe Headrest System) is required and when Intra-Operative CT or MR Imaging is used.
Main components (see also Appendix 2):
DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Cranial Stabilization and Halo Systems:
- DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Skull Clamp Headrest System with Skull Pins
- DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Horseshoe Headrest Systems -
- DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Halo System -
The DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Skull Clamp Headrest System uses a three-point fixation of the head during surgery in the prone, supine, lateral, and sitting positions via the radiolucent Skull Clamp with Skull Pins. The DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Horseshoe Headrest System is an alternative noninvasive gel-pad cranial stabilization system for prone and supine positioning. The Skull Clamp or Horseshoe Headrests can be connected to Swivel Adaptor which in turn can be connected to the appropriate Transitional Members (of varying lengths). These are all MR-Safe.
The Radiolucent Halo System is a series of radiolucent rings (full, half and quarter rings) with fixation rods to attach to the radiolucent skull clamp described above. It provides a hand rest for the Surgeon and a mounting place for a variety of surgeon tools, such as brain Retractor and a holding tray. The Halo Rings and the Rod Fixation Assembly are all MR-Safe.
The DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Cranial Stabilization and Halo Systems are sold non-sterile. The Swivel Adaptor, Skull Clamp and Horseshoe Headrests are intended to be cleaned by the user between uses. For rigid skeletal fixation, the Skull Clamp uses the disposable single-use ceramic (Yttried Zirconium) or Titanium Skull Pins, which are both x-ray and MRI-compatible.
The components of the DORO® Headrest Systems are made of the following materials (see also Appendix 2):
- The Skull Clamp is made of NOVOTEX laminated fabric with phenolic resin (GRP) colored with BASANTOL black X82 liquid and POM (Delrin), PEEK and Polyurethan. MR-Safe.
- The Swivel Adaptor and the Horseshoe Headrest in adult and pediatric versions, the Transitional Members and the Halo Systems are made of Novotex, PEEK and POM. MR-Safe.
- DORO® Radiolucent Disposable Single-Use Skull Pins of Yttried Zirconium or Titanium are X-ray and MRI compatible. MR-Safe.
The DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Cranial Stabilization and Halo Systems can be used with accessories from the predicate DORO® Headrest System (K001808) with Gel Pads for adults, Headrest supports with one or two Gel Pads, single Pin Holders, dual Pin Holders for adults, dual Pin Holders for children, a Multi-Purpose Skull Clamp with six Pin fixation or three Gel Pads.

The Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Halo System
The DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Halo System is a system of radiolucent halo rings of varying size and styles that may be used in neurosurgical applications as an arm rest during head and neck surgery when intra-operative CT or MR Imaging is required.
The intended use of this device is similar to the predicate pro med instruments GmbH DORO® Headrest System (K001808 and K032331), Ohio Medical Instrument Company, Inc.'s (OHIO medical Instrument Co., Inc.) "MAYFIELD Radiolucent 2000 Skull Clamp" (K953124) with the additional application of MRI-compatibility.
7. Biocompatibility
The Radiolucent components of the system are intended to be used non sterile. They do not contact the patient. These materials are NOVOTEX colored with BASF Basantal, POM and Polyurethan.
The DORO® Radiolucent Disposable Single-Use Skull Pins, Ceramic (Yttried Zirconium) and Titanium have contact with the patient, but there is no biocompatibility issues raised.
Summary of Substantial Equivalence 8.
The DORO® Radiolucent / MRI Compatible Cranial Stabilization and Halo Systems and components are used as a head and neck support top stabilize a patient's head during neurosurgical operative procedures. It's the same use as the previous predicates of PMI.
This device is almost similar in design, construction, intended use and performance characteristics to the predicate devices.
