The summary does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, and the description focuses on data collection, analysis, and workflow integration without suggesting advanced algorithmic learning.
No
SunCHECK is a software platform intended to collect, detect, compare, calculate, analyze, display, and store radiotherapy quality assurance and dosimetry data. While it supports radiotherapy, it doesn't directly treat or diagnose a disease or condition in a patient, which is the primary function of a therapeutic device. It is a QA and data management platform for professionals.
No
The device description indicates that SunCHECK is a software platform for collecting, detecting, comparing, calculating, analyzing, displaying, and storing radiotherapy quality assurance and dosimetry data. This functionality supports the management and analysis of QA efforts within a radiation therapy department, rather than directly diagnosing patient conditions.
Yes
The device is described as a "software platform" and a "server-based Web application." While it interacts with data from imaging systems, the device itself is presented as a software solution for data management and analysis, with no mention of accompanying hardware components being part of the submitted device.
Based on the provided information, SunCHECK is NOT an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that SunCHECK is for collecting, detecting, comparing, calculating, analyzing, displaying, and storing radiotherapy quality assurance and dosimetry data. This data is related to the performance of radiation therapy equipment and the delivery of radiation, not the analysis of biological samples from a patient to diagnose or monitor a medical condition.
- Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a software platform for integrating patient QA, machine QA, and data management workflows in a radiation therapy department.
- Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: There is no mention of SunCHECK analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or any other biological sample from a patient. IVDs are specifically designed for this purpose.
- Focus on Equipment and Treatment Data: The input modalities (EPID, kV, Cone Beam CT) and the data processed (radiotherapy QA and dosimetry data) are related to the radiation therapy equipment and the treatment delivery process, not the patient's biological state.
In summary, SunCHECK is a software tool for managing and analyzing data related to the quality and delivery of radiation therapy. This falls outside the scope of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

(a)
Identification. A medical charged-particle radiation therapy system is a device that produces by acceleration high energy charged particles (e.g., electrons and protons) intended for use in radiation therapy. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, treatment planning computer programs, component parts, and accessories.(b)

Dear Ms. Hardee:
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.
