Intended Use
CAS-One IR is a user controlled, stereotactic accessory intended to assist in planning, navigation and manual advancement of one or more instruments, as well as in verification of instrument position and performance during Computed Tomography (CT) guided procedures. In planning, the desired needle configuration and performance is defined relative to the target anatomy. In navigation, the instrument position is displayed telative to the patient and guidance for needle alignment is provided while respiratory levels are monitored. In verification, the achieved instrument configuration and performance are displayed relative to the previously defined plan through an overlay of the pre- and post- treatment image data. CAS-One IR is indicated for use with rigid straight instruments such as needles and probes used in CT guided interventional procedures performed by physicians trained for CT procedures.
Device Description
The system consists of three main components: - A mobile navigation platform can be moved in and out of radiology rooms and is positioned next to the patient in front of the CT scanner. The platform includes two touch screens, a camera and a computer. - Aiming device with trackable aiming insert: To aim the needles to their correct locations, the system uses an aiming device. The aiming device is attached to a multi-axis mechanical arm that can align the position of the aiming device around the expected needle entry position. The aiming device is first aligned to the desired entry point (translational alignment) and then alignment to the desired needle insertion angle is performed using a remote center of rotation principle (rotational alignment). There are two possible configurations of the aiming device. - Instrument adapter clamp with trackable marker shield: As an alternative to the aiming device, trackable markershields can be attached directly to rigid needles by means of an instrument adapter. Calibration of the needle geometry is performed with a calibration unit supplied by CAScination. - CAS-One IR software: The software provides the step-by-step workflow assistance for needle navigation. It provides a means for users to precisely plan a single or multiple needle trajectories, navigate a needle to this exact position and validate the inserted needle's position to the planned position.

No
The summary describes a stereotactic navigation system based on mechanical alignment and image overlay, with no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

No

Explanation: This device is a surgical navigation system that assists physicians in planning, navigating, and verifying instrument positions during CT-guided interventional procedures. It does not directly provide therapy or treatment to a patient.

No

The device is described as a "stereotactic accessory intended to assist in planning, navigation and manual advancement of one or more instruments, as well as in verification of instrument position and performance during Computed Tomography (CT) guided procedures." This indicates it is for guiding interventions, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including a mobile navigation platform with touch screens, camera, and computer, an aiming device with a mechanical arm, and an instrument adapter clamp. While software is a component, it is part of a larger hardware system.

Based on the provided information, no, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that CAS-One IR is a "stereotactic accessory intended to assist in planning, navigation and manual advancement of one or more instruments, as well as in verification of instrument position and performance during Computed Tomography (CT) guided procedures." This describes a system used during a medical procedure to guide instruments within the body, not a device used to examine specimens outside the body to obtain diagnostic information.
  • Device Description: The description details hardware components like a mobile navigation platform, aiming device, and instrument adapter clamp, along with software for planning and navigation. These are all consistent with a surgical or interventional guidance system, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, urine, etc.), reagents, or providing diagnostic information based on the analysis of such samples.

In summary, CAS-One IR is a medical device used for image-guided intervention, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Substantial Equivalence:

CAS-One IR has been shown to be equivalent to:

  • MAXIO (Perfint Healthcare, Pvt. Ltd.) [K132108] |
  • ig4 Image Guided System (Veran Medical Technologies) [K060903]

CAS-One IR was compared and evaluated to the predicate devices with respect to the following characteristics:

  • Planning
  • Needle configuration and performance -
  • Navigation ー
  • Respiratory motion control -
  • -Intra-interventional verification
  • Post treatment verification —
  • -Interventional instruments

  • lmaging modality |

The above characteristics were evaluated and found to have the same intended use as the predicate devices. Where technological differences were identified, performance data was supplied to support the conclusion that CAS-One IR does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.

CAS-One IR is shown to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Biocompatibility

All devices of CAS-One IR have the following patient contacting characteristics:

  • Surface Devices
  • -Skin
