Intended Use
To mark tissue during a percutaneous breast biopsy procedure, be visible under ultrasound for at least 6 weeks, and be permanently visible by x-ray and MRI.
Device Description
The HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Marker contains a resorbable hydrogel component and a metallic component for permanent marking. The hydrogel has features that are unique and highly desirable for breast tissue marking. The HydroMark Site Marker is provided pre-loaded in a sterile, disposable applicator that is compatible with specified commercially available biopsy devices. The HydroMark is deployed by the delivery system and is left in the tract created during the biopsy procedure. This Special 510(k) addresses the addition of a smaller size HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Marker which will be provided in a smaller, rigid, sharp delivery system for use under ultrasound deployment either directly or though a commercially available 16 gauge x 9 cm coaxial needle. This Special 510(k) also describes minor modifications to the delivery system used for the ATEC 9 Ga Biopsy System and the EnCore 10 Ga Directional Vacuum-Assisted Biopsy Devices, and includes compatibility testing to allow the existing Mammotome MR Targeting Set to be labeled for use with other commercial MRI biopsy devices. Associated changes to the IFU and labels are also provided.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and delivery system of a biopsy site marker, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is described as a marker used to identify a biopsy site. Its purpose is to mark tissue for visibility under imaging, not to treat a disease or condition.

No

This device is a marker used to mark tissue during a percutaneous breast biopsy procedure for later visualization, not to diagnose a condition itself.

No

The device is a physical implantable marker and a delivery system, not a software application.

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 outside of the body.
  • Device Function: The HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Marker is a device that is implanted into the body during a biopsy procedure. Its purpose is to physically mark the location of the biopsy site within the breast tissue.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it is "To mark tissue during a percutaneous breast biopsy procedure." This is an in-vivo (within the living body) application.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical marker with a hydrogel and metallic component that is "left in the tract created during the biopsy procedure." This confirms it's an implanted device.

Therefore, the HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Marker is a medical device used in vivo for marking tissue, not an in vitro diagnostic test performed on samples outside the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Non-clinical testing included the following:
Visual and Dimensional testing
Technological Characteristics:

  • Tensile testing of delivery system
  • Penetration force
  • Usability testing for ease of insertion and deployment
  • Hydration testing and moisture analysis
  • Visibility under ultrasound, x-ray, and MRI
  • Sterilization validation

The devices performed as intended according to the specifications established for the finished device. The device continues to meet the ISO 10993-1 requirements for biocompatibility.

The non-clinical bench testing, including simulated use testing, demonstrates that the 18 gauge HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Marker for use with a 16 gauge x 9 cm coaxial needle performs as intended, accurately marking the biopsy site by fixating in the track of the needle biopsy. The device works in an identical manner to previously cleared 15 ga HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Markers for use with 13 gauge x 9 cm coaxial needles or for direct puncture.

Device Description: The HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Marker contains a resorbable hydrogel component and a metallic component for permanent marking. The hydrogel has features that are unique and highly desirable for breast tissue marking.

The HydroMark Site Marker is provided pre-loaded in a sterile, disposable applicator that is compatible with specified commercially available biopsy devices. The HydroMark is deployed by the delivery system and is left in the tract created during the biopsy procedure.

deployment either directly or though a commercially available 16 gauge x 9 cm coaxial needle.

This Special 510(k) also describes minor modifications to the delivery system used for the ATEC 9 Ga Biopsy System and the EnCore 10 Ga Directional Vacuum-Assisted Biopsy Devices, and includes compatibility testing to allow the existing Mammotome MR Targeting Set to be labeled for use with other commercial MRI biopsy devices. Associated changes to the IFU and labels are also provided.

Intended Use:

The Biopsy Sciences, Inc. HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Marker is intended to mark tissue during a percutaneous breast biopsy procedure, be visible under ultrasound for at least 6 weeks, and be permanently visible by x-ray and MRI.

The indications are identical to those of the predicate device, the Biopsy Sciences HydroMark Biopsy Site Marker, is indicated "to mark tissue during a percutaneous breast biopsy procedure, be visible under ultrasound for at least 6 weeks, and be permanently visible by x-ray and MRI."

The hydrogel component expands on fluid contact to fill the track of the biopsy needle anchoring the HydroMark at the exact location of biopsy. Because the hydrogel is hydrophilic, it is clearly distinct from normal breast structure under ultrasound imaging. The hydrogel material degrades via hydrolysis over time leaving the internal stainless steel or titanium coil which provides permanent visibility under x-ray and MRI.

The smaller size marker is a new model in the family of HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Markers which will be provided with a rigid, sharp delivery system for use under ultrasound deployment either directly or through a 16 gauge x 9 cm coaxial needle. There are no technological differences between this site marker and the others in the family of HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Markers; therefore the addition of the smaller size marker does not raise new questions of safety or efficacy. All other modifications to the delivery systems, device compatibility and associated IFU and label changes represent minor updates to the products.

The device works in an identical manner to previously cleared 15 ga HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Markers for use with 13 gauge x 9 cm coaxial needles or for direct puncture. The testing supports a determination of substantial equivalence to predicate HydroMark Breast Biopsy Site Markers cleared by FDA.
