The summary describes a hardware modification to a multi-leaf collimator and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.
Yes
The device is intended to provide stereotactic radiosurgery and precision radiotherapy for lesions, tumors, and conditions anywhere in the body, which are forms of medical treatment.
No
The device is intended to provide stereotactic radiosurgery and precision radiotherapy, which are treatment modalities, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description explicitly details modifications to a physical multi-leaf collimator (MLC), which is a hardware component of a linear accelerator system. While software is mentioned as being verified, the core of the submission is about a hardware change.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "stereotactic radiosurgery and precision radiotherapy for lesions, tumors, and conditions anywhere in the body where radiation treatment is indicated." This describes a therapeutic device that delivers radiation for treatment, not a device used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description: The description focuses on a modification to a multi-leaf collimator (MLC) within a Linac system, which is a component of a radiation therapy machine. This further reinforces its role in delivering radiation treatment.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), performing tests on specimens, or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.
Therefore, the MRIdian Linac system, as described, is a therapeutic medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
This submission describes a modification to the currently marketed multi-leaf collimator (MLC) cleared as part of the MRIdian Linac system (K162393) intended to enhance beam resolution. The current MLC is comprised of 60 tungsten leaves in two opposing 30-leaf banks. The design modification discussed in this submission essentially divides the two existing leaf banks in half splitting them along the leaf motion direction and shifting the banks by one half of a leaf width. The "tonque and groove" is eliminated from the leaves and the shifted banks act effectively as better focused "tongue and groove" mechanism. As with the predicate, each MLC layer of the modified MLC is focused to a point beyond the source point of the Linac radiation to improve interleaf leakage performance (see Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 in TECH-697). In this system, the focus point is 15 mm further away than the source point. The minimum projected leaf width then becomes one half the physical projected leaf width. The projected leaf width is 8.3 mm and the projected half leaf width is 4.15 mm. The modified MLC design has two layers of opposing tungsten leaves; the top and bottom layers have 34 and 35 leaves in each bank respectively for a total of 138 leaves. There have been no other changes to the cleared MRIdian Linac system (K162393).

4. Description of the Device
This submission describes a modification to the currently marketed multi-leaf collimator (MLC) cleared as part of the MRIdian Linac system (K162393) intended to enhance beam resolution. The current MLC is comprised of 60 tungsten leaves in two opposing 30-leaf banks.

6. Indication for Use Statement
The MRIdian Linac system, with magnetic resonance imaging capabilities, is intended to provide stereotactic radiosurgery and precision radiotherapy for lesions, tumors, and conditions anywhere in the body where radiation treatment is indicated.
7. Substantial Equivalence
ViewRay has demonstrated that the MRIdian Linac system (K162393) performs in a substantially equivalent manner when using either the 60 or 138-leaf MLC for beam collimation.
8. Technological Characteristics
The cleared MRIdian Linac system (K162393) is an Image-Guided Radiation Therapy System (IGRT) that uses a 6 MV linear accelerator radiotherapy system to deliver ionizing radiation while using a magnetic resonance imaging system (MRIS) unit for image quidance in real-time. The MRIdian Linac system has equivalent functionality when employing the proposed 138-leaf MLC described in this submission.
The current MLC is comprised of 60 tungsten leaves in two opposing 30-leaf banks. The design modification discussed in this submission essentially divides the two existing leaf banks in half splitting them along the leaf motion direction and shifting the banks by one half of a leaf width. The "tongue and groove" is eliminated from the leaves and the shifted banks act effectively as better focused "tongue and groove" mechanism. As with the predicate, each MLC layer of the modified MLC is focused to a point beyond the source point of the Linac radiation to improve interleaf leakage performance (see Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 in TECH-697). In this system, the focus point is 15 mm further away than the source point. The minimum projected leaf width then becomes one half the physical projected leaf width. The projected leaf width is 8.3 mm and the projected half leaf width is 4.15 mm. The modified MLC design has two layers of opposing tungsten leaves; the top and bottom layers have 34 and 35 leaves in each bank respectively for a total of 138 leaves.

The leaf sequencing algorithm of the predicate MRIdian Linac with 60-leaf MLC supports leaf sequencing with or without elimination of "tonque and groove" effect, as well as leaf sequencing with or without interdigitation. The 138-leaf MLC uses the same fundamental leaf-sequencing algorithm as the predicate, in its most efficient realization, with a method to prevent the production of undeliverable segments. The leaf sequencer starts with an internal representation of the MLC with 0.415mm leaf spacing, and follows the same process as that used for the 60leaf MLC to produce leaf positions along each row. The sequencer then combines the leaf settings into segments. Because of the double-layered design of the 138leaf MLC, this process can lead to rare occurrences of non-deliverable segments when two disjoint openings that are neighboring by a ½ leaf width are produced. Such cases are handled by preventing the creation of such segments when combining row leaf settings into segments. This approach has no effect on the quality of the delivered dose distributions and the removal of the algorithm for the elimination of "tongue and groove" effect makes it beam-on-time efficient. Please see TECH Report 700 for further detail in Attachment 12.1.
The MRIdian Linac system functions in a substantially equivalent manner when employing either the cleared 60-leaf (K162393) or the proposed 138-leaf MLC. Both configurations collimate the radiation beam such that ionizing dose distributions are delivered to the patient while using MRI imaging during treatment. However, the 138-leaf MLC has improved beam resolution at isocenter from 1.43cm in the cleared MRIdian Linac system to 0.415cm.

10. Conclusion
Verification testing of the MRIdian Linac system with the 138-leaf MLC demonstrated that the device met established standards and design requirements. System performance was found to be equivalent in function to the predicate 60leaf MLC currently used in the cleared MRIdian Linac system (K162393). Therefore, the MRIdian Linac system performs in a substantially equivalent manner when using with either the cleared 60-leaf MLC (K162393) or the proposed 138-leaf MLC described in this submission.
