No
The device description and intended use focus on a mechanical biopsy needle and instrument, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would typically incorporate AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" sections are explicitly marked as "Not Found".
No
The device is a biopsy needle used to obtain tissue samples for diagnostic purposes, not for therapeutic treatment.
No
The text describes a biopsy needle used for obtaining tissue samples. While these samples are often used for diagnostic purposes, the needle itself is a tool for sample collection, not for diagnosing a condition or disease.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical, disposable biopsy needle made of stainless steel and thermoplastic, intended for use with a reusable biopsy instrument. It does not mention any software components.
Based on the provided information, the M-CORE disposable biopsy needle is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to obtain biopsies from soft tissues. This is a procedure to collect a sample from the body, not to perform a diagnostic test on a sample that has already been removed from the body.
- Device Description: The description details a needle for tissue collection, not a device for analyzing biological samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue samples after collection), reagents, or diagnostic assays.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The M-CORE needle is a tool for obtaining the specimen itself.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The M-CORE disposable biopsy needle is intended for use with the Bard® Magnum® biopsy instrument in obtaining biopsies from soft tissues such as liver, kidney, prostate, breast, spleen, lymph nodes and various soft tissue tumors. The M-CORE needle is not intended for use in bone.

§ 876.1075 Gastroenterology-urology biopsy instrument.
(a)
Identification. A gastroenterology-urology biopsy instrument is a device used to remove, by cutting or aspiration, a specimen of tissue for microscopic examination. This generic type of device includes the biopsy punch, gastrointestinal mechanical biopsy instrument, suction biopsy instrument, gastro-urology biopsy needle and needle set, and nonelectric biopsy forceps. This section does not apply to biopsy instruments that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (performance standards).(2) Class I for the biopsy forceps cover and the non-electric biopsy forceps. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

Dear Mr. Hendrixson:
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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
