Intended Use
The Sun Nuclear Dose Calculator is a software product intended to compute a radiotherapy dose volume.
Device Description
Model 1218028 Dose Calculator computes a dose volume for a user-specified treatment delivery device based on user-provided three dimensional volumetric imaging information (e.g., computed tomography) and beam intensity values. Both the imaging data and beam intensity values are specified in DICOM-RT format. The beam model for the specified treatment delivery device is provided with the software. The output of the SDC is a DICOM RT dose volume. The Dose Calculator is for use with external beam photon radiation therapy calculations. Charged particle radiotherapy calculations (including electron, proton, and heavy ion therapy) are not indicated for use with this product. The Dose Calculator software application is considered to be a software module that may be used by several Sun Nuclear Corporation products and/or 300 party applications.
More Information

No
The description focuses on deterministic calculations based on user-provided data and a pre-defined beam model, with no mention of learning or adaptive algorithms.

No
The device is a dose calculator, which is used for planning and calculating radiation therapy doses, but it does not directly treat or diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device computes a radiotherapy dose volume for treatment planning, not for diagnosing a medical condition.

Yes

The device description explicitly states "The Sun Nuclear Dose Calculator is a software product" and "The Dose Calculator software application is considered to be a software module". There is no mention of accompanying hardware components that are part of the device itself.

Based on the provided information, the Sun Nuclear Dose Calculator 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.
  • Device Function: The Sun Nuclear Dose Calculator is a software product that computes a radiotherapy dose volume based on imaging data and beam intensity values. It is used in the planning and delivery of external beam radiation therapy.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: The device does not analyze any biological samples from a patient. Its inputs are imaging data and treatment parameters, not biological specimens.

Therefore, the Sun Nuclear Dose Calculator falls under the category of a medical device used in radiation therapy planning, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
