The summary describes a system based on electromagnetic and optical detection of passive markers (transponders) for real-time tracking and gating. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning algorithms used for image processing, prediction, or decision-making beyond simple threshold-based gating.
No
The device is used as an adjunct in "treatment planning and radiation therapy" and "patient alignment and target position monitoring during radiation therapy," but it does not directly treat a disease or condition.
No
The Calypso System is intended for use as an adjunct in treatment planning and radiation therapy to align and/or monitor the patient's position relative to the isocenter of a radiation therapy system. It localizes a treatment isocenter and can signal a radiation therapy system for beam-hold based on target position. While it provides "objective measurement of the location of the target in 3 dimensions," this information is used for alignment and monitoring during therapy, not for diagnosing a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly mentions the use of "non-ionizing electromagnetic and optical technology" and "passive markers, called Beacon® transponders" which are physical hardware components. The system relies on detecting signals from these transponders, indicating it is not solely software.
Based on the provided text, the Calypso System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the examination of specimens derived from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.
- Calypso System's Function: The Calypso System's intended use and device description clearly state that it is used for real-time localization and monitoring of a treatment target within the patient's body during radiation therapy. It uses electromagnetic and optical technology to track implanted or externally placed markers.
- No Specimen Examination: The system does not involve the examination of any specimens derived from the human body. It interacts directly with the patient's body or implanted markers within the body.
Therefore, the Calypso System falls under the category of a medical device used for treatment planning and delivery, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Calypso System utilizes non-ionizing electromagnetic and optical technology to provide accurate, objective, and continuous localization of a treatment target for patient alignment and target position monitoring during radiation therapy.
Use of the Calypso System for target localization is based on the system's detection of non-ionizing electromagnetic signals from passive markers, called Beacon® transponders which are implanted in or near the treatment target or placed externally on the surface of a patient.
Implanted Beacon transponders when used with the Calypso System enable objective measurement of the location of the target in 3 dimensions. The system operator uses this information to align the patient's treatment target to the isocenter of the therapy system prior to treatment. This information can also be used to monitor (track) the position of the treatment target during radiation therapy treatment.
When using Surface Beacon transponders this information can be used to monitor respiratory motion and other patient motion in real time during radiotherapy. When correlated to the patient's treatment target motion the system provides objective measurement of the location of the target in 3 dimensions.
The Dynamic Edge™ Gating feature enables the Calypso System to interface with radiation therapy systems configured with gating capabilities via an interface to external systems. With this optional feature added to the Calypso System, a beam hold is signaled to the radiation therapy system when the treatment target position has moved outside the defined tracking limits. The radiation therapy system is signaled to remove the beam-hold upon the target's return to a position inside the defined tracking limits.

Dear Ms. Page:
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 class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.

Device Name: Calypso@ System Surface Beacon transponders
The Calypso System is intended for use as an adjunct in treatment planning and radiation the our poor ijo align and/or the patient's position relative to the isocenter of a radiation therapy system. The Calypso System provides accurate, precise and continuous localization of a treatment isocenter by using two or more Beacon transponders.
The optional Dynamic Edge™ Gating component may signal a radiation therapy system to impose a beam-hold when the treatment target position has moved outside the defined tracking limits and to signal the radiation therapy system to remove the beam-hold upon the target's return to a position inside the defined tracking limits. The Dynamic Edge Gating feature has been shown to be compatible with Varian and Siemens radiation therapy treatment systems with external gating interfaces.
Implanted Beacon® transponders are indicated for use to radiographically and electromagnetically mark soft tissue for future therapeutic procedures.
Permanent Beacon transponders are indicated for implantation in the prostate and the peri-prostatic tissue (i.e., prostatic bed) to align and monitor the treatment isocenter in real time during radiation therapy.
Surface Beacon® transponders are indicated for temporary external placement on the skin, to monitor respiratory motion and other patient motion in real time during radiation therapy.
