The device description explicitly states "No software is included in this device," and there are no mentions of AI, ML, or related concepts in the document. The device is a physical, machined brass aperture.
No.
The device is an accessory used to shape an external radiation beam during radiation therapy, which is a therapeutic treatment. The device itself does not directly treat the patient but rather assists in the delivery of a therapeutic treatment.
No
The device, a Cura Collimator, is described as a "solid, machine-shaped brass aperture" intended to "shape an external radiation beam to block radiation from hitting critical structures and healthy tissue while guiding the radiation to the targeted area." Its function is to modify the physical delivery of radiation therapy, not to detect, diagnose, or monitor a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly states "No software is included in this device."
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
- Cura Collimator Function: The Cura Collimator is a physical device used to shape an external radiation beam for therapeutic purposes (treating tumors). It interacts with the radiation beam, not with patient specimens.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "shaping an external radiation beam" and "guiding the radiation to the targeted area" during radiation therapy. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
The device description and performance studies further reinforce that it's a physical accessory for radiation therapy equipment, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes biological samples.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Cura Collimator is a solid, machine-shaped brass aperture intended to shape an external radiation beam to block radiation from hitting critical structures and healthy tissue while guiding the radiation to the targeted area. The Cura Collimator may be used as an accessory whenever external beam radiation therapy is indicated for the treatment of patients with localized tumors or other conditions susceptible to treatment by radiation.

Device Description
Cura Collimators are custom beam blocks with machined cutout to allow beam passage per prescription and sized to snugly fit the applicator or nozzle and block all remaining beam in the radiation therapy fraction delivery. The Collimator is made of high lead content brass with notch orientation to match radiation manufacturer use specifications. No software is included in this device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Cura Collimators were tested for:
- Material performance
- Machine tool instructions adherence to Treatment Plan direction
- DICOM Network Transmission system integrity
Treatment plans were created at Washington University, in St. Louis, Missouri. The treatment plans were transmitted to Cura via Cura's DICOM Network Transmission application. Cura manufactured the Cura Collmators, based upon the communicated treatment plan. Cura distributed the test Cura Collimators to Washington University, who physically compared the Cura Collimators to the actual treatment plan and conducted beam tests with the Cura Collimators. Cura Collimators were also sent to Mevion Medical Systems, Inc. for physical inspection and beam test. For beam test, the Cura Collimators were placed in beam and the delivered field was captured on digital film. Both Mevion and Washington confirmed the accuracy of the delivered beam line field versus the treatment plan.
All tests PASSED, with no contingencies or other considerations.

Intended Use/Indications for use
· The Cura Collimator is a solid, machine-shaped brass aperture intended to shape an external radiation beam to block radiation from hitting critical structures and healthy tissue while guiding the radiation to the targeted area. The Cura Collimator may be used as an accessory whenever external beam radiation therapy is indicated for the treatment of patients with localized turnors or other conditions susceptible to treatment by radiation.
Summary Device Description
Cura Collimators are custom beam blocks with machined cutout to allow beam passage per prescription and sized to snugly fit the applicator or nozzle and block all remaining beam in the radiation therapy fraction delivery. The Collimator is made of high lead content brass with notch orientation to match radiation manufacturer use specifications. No software is included in this device.
Summary of Technological Characteristics
Cura Collimators, sometimes also called apertures, are made of brass, custom cut to hospital users' specifications, and used for external beam radiation therapy treatments. The brass aperture cutouts are designed according to the Treatment Plan parameters designated by hospital personnel and then transmitted to Cura machining centers for custom manufacture and delivery back to the hospital.
The device features of Cura Collimators are similar to the predicate device, Dot Decimal's Apertures. Thev both are made of brass, custom cut to hospital users' specifications, and used for external beam radiation therapy treatments. They both are used to block radiation and guide it to affected areas. The target population is identical and the use parameters are also very similar.

Conclusion
In conclusion, the non-clinical test demonstrates that Cura Collimators function as intented, and are Safe and Effective to accomplish their intended use.
Summary of Technological Characteristics Substantial Equivalence Analysis
The Cura Collimator is substantially equivalent to .decimal Aperture. Brass apertures have been used for beam shaping in radiation therapy for many decades. The Brass apertures effectively shape radiotherapy treatment beams - proton, electron, and photon beams - to precisely deliver radition to intended treatment targets. Cura Collimator is equivalent in intended use, materials used, creation and use processes, and performance. The Cura Collimator poses no new, novel, or different safety or efficacy risks or efficacies. As such, the Cura Collimator is Substantially Equivalent to the .decimal Aperture.

Dear Mr. Faris:
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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. 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. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
