The summary describes a physical device (needles and gold markers) used for localization in radiation therapy, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
No
The device is used for the interstitial placement of gold fiducial markers which then serve as localization targets for radiation therapy. It does not actively treat a disease or condition itself.
No
Explanation: The device is used for the placement of fiducial markers for radiation therapy, which serves as a treatment guide rather than for diagnosing a condition.
No
The device description explicitly states the product consists of a solid gold marker loaded into a needle, which are physical hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples such as blood, urine, or tissue that have been taken from the human body to detect diseases or other conditions. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that the needles are used for the interstitial placement of gold fiducial markers within the body. These markers are then used in vivo (within the living organism) for localization during radiation therapy.
- No Sample Analysis: The device does not involve the analysis of any biological samples taken from the body.
Therefore, the Stellar Fiducial Markers and their associated needles are considered medical devices used for a therapeutic/localization purpose within the body, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The needles are used for interstitial placement of gold fiducial markers. Once implanted, the gold fiducial markers are used as localization targets for the process in IMRT, and IGRT 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.

Dear Mr. Roedell:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.
