Intended Use
The Surface Applicator Set with Leipzig-style cone-GM11010080 is indicated for treatment of small skin tumours or other superficial disease (such as keloid formations) with HDR brachytherapy.
Device Description
The Surface Applicator Set with Leipzig-style Cone is a Brachytherapy applicator set. Brachytherapy is a form of radiotherapy using Gamma rays from a radioactive source placed at locations close to or within a tumour to a predefined treatment plan. The treatment plan defines the positions and times for the source to ensure the correct dose for the treatment area. The applicator acts to guide the radioactive source to the correct location or locations for treatment. The devices are intended to be used by trained and qualified personnel such as Radiation Oncologists, Physicians, Radiologists, Dosimetrists, Medical Physicists, and Nurses/MTRAs/Radiology Technicians/Radiographers in a hospital environment.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a physical brachytherapy applicator and does not mention any software or algorithms that would incorporate AI or ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for the "treatment of small skin tumours or other superficial disease (such as keloid formations) with HDR brachytherapy," which fits the definition of a therapeutic device.

No
The device is described as a brachytherapy applicator set used for treating small skin tumors, not for diagnosing them.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Brachytherapy applicator set" and describes its function as guiding a radioactive source, indicating it is a physical hardware device.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The device is used for treating small skin tumors or superficial diseases with HDR brachytherapy. This is a therapeutic procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a brachytherapy applicator set used to guide a radioactive source for treatment. This is a medical device used directly on or in the patient for therapeutic purposes.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or any diagnostic purpose.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device's function is entirely therapeutic.
