Device Description
The Model 1177 MapCHECK 2 and Model 1220 ArcCHECK devices are diode detector arrays that allow the user to perform radiation therapy delivery quality assurance (QA) and dosimetry. The MapCHECK 2 is a two-dimensional detector array intended to measure radiation dose distribution. The 1527 diode detectors are embedded in polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) phantom in an array size of 32 cm, with a detector spacing of 7.07 mm and a weight of 7.1 kg. With the provided software installed on the user's computer and connected to the MapCHECK 2 with an 8 pin DIN power/data conduit cable, the software provides the ability for the user to perform QA analysis of a patient's radiation therapy plan prior to treatment. The ArcCHECK is a three-dimensional cylindrical detector array designed for coherent measurement geometry during rotational treatment delivery. The 1386 diode detectors are embedded in a PMMA phantom on a cylindrical geometric surface with an array size of 21 cm diameter x 21 cm length, with a detector spacing of 10 mm and a weight of 16 kg. This cylindrical array allows for dosimetry measurements to be made from all gantry angles as the therapy beam rotates about the diode array. With the provided software installed on the user's computer and connected to the ArcCHECK with an 8 pin DIN power/data conduit cable, the software provides the ability for the user to perform QA analysis of a patient's radiation therapy plan prior to treatment. Both MapCHECK 2 and ArcCHECK use the same software application that includes functions for array and dose calibration; measurement and display of the spatial distribution of the dose resulting from delivery of a radiation treatment plan; saving the measurement; importing the treatment planning system (TPS) calculated dose distribution; comparing the measured and planned dose distributions using the analysis methods of gamma or dose difference and distance to agreement (DTA) with user specified analysis criteria; and a report of this analysis that includes percent pass rates.

The description focuses on hardware (diode arrays) and standard software functions for data acquisition, display, comparison (gamma, dose difference, DTA), and reporting. There is no mention of AI or ML algorithms for analysis or interpretation.

No.
This device is designed for quality assurance and dosimetry of radiation therapy equipment, not for directly treating patients. It measures and compares radiation dose distributions to ensure the accuracy of treatment planning systems.

No

The device is a quality assurance (QA) system used to measure radiation dose distributions for comparison with simulated dose distributions from a treatment planning system. It is used to verify the accuracy of a patient's radiation therapy plan prior to treatment, not to diagnose a medical condition in a patient.

No

The device description explicitly states that the devices are "diode detector arrays" embedded in a PMMA phantom, which are physical hardware components used for measuring radiation dose distributions. While software is used for analysis and comparison, the core device includes significant hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "measurement of radiation dose distributions for the purpose of comparison with a simulated dose distribution... calculated by the treatment planning system (TPS)." This is a quality assurance (QA) process for radiation therapy equipment and treatment plans, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample from a patient.
  • Device Description: The device measures radiation dose using diode detector arrays embedded in a phantom. It does not interact with or analyze biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.).
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: The entire description focuses on measuring physical radiation dose and comparing it to a calculated plan. There is no mention of analyzing any biological material.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or screening purposes. This device does not fit that definition.

2 Description and Use:

The Model 1177 MapCHECK 2 and Model 1220 ArcCHECK devices are diode detector arrays that allow the user to perform radiation therapy delivery quality assurance (QA) and dosimetrv.

The MapCHECK 2 is a two-dimensional detector array intended to measure radiation dose distribution. The 1527 diode detectors are embedded in polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) phantom in an array size of 32 cm, with a detector spacing of 7.07 mm and a weight of 7.1 kg. With the provided software installed on the user's computer and connected to the MapCHECK 2 with an 8 pin DIN power/data conduit cable, the software provides the ability for the user to perform QA analysis of a patient's radiation therapy plan prior to treatment.

The ArcCHECK is a three-dimensional cylindrical detector array designed for coherent measurement geometry during rotational treatment delivery. The 1386 diode detectors are embedded in a PMMA phantom on a cylindrical geometric surface with an array size of 21 cm diameter x 21 cm length, with a detector spacing of 10 mm and a weight of 16 kg. This cylindrical array allows for dosimetry measurements to be made from all gantry angles as the therapy beam rotates about the diode array. With the provided software installed on the user's computer and connected to the ArcCHECK with an 8 pin DIN power/data conduit cable, the software provides the ability for the user to perform QA analysis of a patient's radiation therapy plan prior to treatment.

Both MapCHECK 2 and ArcCHECK use the same software application that includes functions for array and dose calibration; measurement and display of the spatial distribution of the dose resulting from delivery of a radiation treatment plan; saving the measurement; importing the treatment planning system (TPS) calculated dose distribution; comparing the measured and planned dose distributions using the analysis methods of gamma or dose difference and distance to agreement (DTA) with user specified analysis criteria; and a report of this analysis that includes percent pass rates.

3 Intended Use Statements:

Sun Nuclear Corporation (SNC) Model 1177 MapCHECK 2 and Model 1220 ArcCHECK have the following intended use:

Model 1177 MapCHECK 2 is a two-dimensional (2D) radiotherapy beam dosimetry QA system intended for the measurement of radiation dose distributions for the purpose of comparison with a simulated dose distribution in the same phantom geometry as calculated by the treatment planning system (TPS).

Model 1220 ArcCHECK is a three-dimensional (3D) radiotherapy beam dosimetry QA system intended for the measurement of radiation dose distributions for the purpose of comparison with a simulated dose distribution in the same phantom geometry as calculated by the treatment planning system (TPS).

4 Technological Characteristics

The primary technological characteristic of the MapCHECK 2 and the ArcCHECK is the high spatial resolution of the diode detector with an array size and a detector density that enables measurement of dose distributions that have high dose gradients found in radiotherapy deliveries. The spatial resolution of the diode detector is 0.8 mm x 0.8 mm, resulting in very little dose volume averaging over the high dose gradient regions in the plan.

The MapCHECK 2 serves as a 2D phantom with the array of detectors located on a 2D surface embedded at a radiological depth of 2 g/cm². The ArcCHECK serves as a 3D

phantom with the detectors located on a 3D cylindrical surface embedded at a radiological depth of 3 g/cm².

The predicate device utilizes silver halide film for its radiation detector, which also provides a high spatial resolution and a large area (25 cm x 30 cm) that enables measurement of dose distributions that have high dose gradients found in radiotherapy deliveries.. The film must be used in conjunction with a known phantom to simulate the correct radiologic characteristics. When this film is exposed to radiation from a radiation therapy beam and then developed, the result is that the film exhibits an increased optical density. When a film is exposed by a patient radiation therapy treatment plan, this optical density can then be converted to a dose distribution as would be delivered by that radiation therapy treatment.

5 Performance Data and Comparison with Predicate

The MapCHECK 2 and the ArcCHECK have been tested in non-clinical and clinical settings, and it was shown that these devices perform within their design specifications. Tests that compare known patient treatment plan outputs with that measured by these devices have been conducted; the results were found to have correlation with the actual treatment plan.

Tests were also performed to compare the results of the MapCHECK 2 and the ArcCHECK with film dosimetry devices. It was determined that the results had good correlation.

Performance testing also indicated compliance with relevant electrical safety and EMC standards.

6 Summary

The Model 1177 MapCHECK 2 and the Model 1220 ArcCHECK are deemed substantially equivalent to the predicate device. The intended use, performance testing, safety and effectiveness reviews demonstrate that these devices are as safe, as effective, and perform as well or better than the predicate device. The minor technological differences between the MapCHECK 2, the ArcCHECK and the predicate do not raise new types of safety or effectiveness questions.
