The description focuses on stereotactic imaging and Cartesian coordinate calculations for lesion localization, with no mention of AI or ML techniques.
No.
The device is for guiding biopsy and localization, not for treating a disease or condition itself.
No
The device is a guidance system for interventional procedures like biopsy, not one that directly diagnoses a condition.
No
The device description explicitly states it is an "optional accessory" for a mammography system and includes safety features related to the physical mounting, latching, and connection of a "biopsy module," as well as motorized movement of a "biopsy device." These are hardware components, not solely software.
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 taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device function: The Affirm breast biopsy guidance system is a guidance system used during a medical procedure (biopsy). It helps the physician accurately locate a lesion within the breast using imaging data. It does not analyze a sample taken from the body to provide diagnostic information.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it is for "guidance for interventional purposes (such as biopsy, pre-surgical localization or treatment devices)." This is a procedural aid, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
- Device Description: The description reinforces its role in localizing lesions and guiding the biopsy procedure. It doesn't mention any analysis of biological samples.
Therefore, the Affirm breast biopsy guidance system falls under the category of a medical device used for image-guided intervention, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Affirm Breast Biopsy Guidance System is an optional accessory for the Selenia Dimensions 2D Full Field Digital Mammography System. It is designed to allow the accurate location of lesions in the breast in three dimensions, using information extracted from stereotactic pairs of two-dimensional images. It is intended to provide guidance for interventional purposes (such as biopsy, pre-surgical localization or treatment devices).

Device Description
The Affirm Breast Biopsy Guidance System used with the Selenia Dimensions 2D Full Field Digital Mammography System (FFDM), is a stereotactic lesion localization system that has the application of localizing, and then giving a physician the capability of performing fine needle aspiration or core biopsy of lesions determined to be suspicious through prior mammographic examination.
Stereotactic images on the host mammography system are acquired at +/-15°. The stereo images are calculated with Cartesian coordinates to target lesions. Stereo images are displayed on the mammography system display for the targeting procedure. Images are then sent to PACS for archiving via DICOM protocol.
Safety Features include:
- Automatic detection of mounting, latching, and connection of biopsy module
- C-arm motion disabled if biopsy module is not locked in place
- Automatic compression release disabled when biopsy module installed
- Motorized movement of biopsy device only under user control
- Audible alert if biopsy device motion could result in mechanical interference

It is designed to allow the accurate location of lesions in the breast in three dimensions, using information extracted from stereotactic pairs of two-dimensional images. It is intended to provide guidance for interventional purposes (such as biopsy, pre-surgical localization or treatment devices).
Comparison with Predicate Devices:
The Hologic Affirm Breast Biopsy Guidance System is substantially equivalent to K071542 Hologic Digital StereoLoc II, which is used with the Selenia Full Field Digital Mammography X-ray system to provide location of areas of concern and pre-surgical localization for performance of breast biopsies on an upright mammography system.
Summary of Testing
The Hologic Affirm Breast Biopsy Guidance System was successfully tested by UL to IEC 60601-1 Medical Electrical Equipment Standards. Stereotactic images captured, saved and/or transmitted by the Selenia Dimensions 2D FFDM conform with ACR/NEMA Digital Imaging Communications in Medicine version 3.0.
Hologic successfully performed design control verification and validation tests in accordance with 21 CFR Part 820.
Conclusion
The Affirm Breast Biopsy Guidance System design, operation, construction and materials are similar to existing marketed device with no additional risks or hazards.
