Leksell Gamma Knife® Perfexion™ is a teletherapy device intended for stereotactic irradiation of head structures ranging from very small target sizes of a few millimeters to several centimeters e.g. • Metastatic tumors • Recurrent glioblastomas • Trigeminal neuralgia • Medically refractory essential tremor • Orbital tumors • Ocular tumors • Optic nerve tumors • Benign diseases (such as meningiomas, vestibular schwannomas, post-surgical pituitary adenomas, craniopharyngioma, hemangioblastomas, schwannomas, arteriovenous malformations, cavernous malformations, chordomas, glomus tumors, hemangiomas) • Skull base tumors • Head and neck tumors (such as unknown primary of the head and neck, oral cavity, hypopharynx, oropharynx, nasopharynx, sinonasal, salivary gland) • Pediatric tumors (such as glioma, ependymoma, pituitary tumors, hemangioblastoma, craniopharyngioma, meningioma, metastasis, medulloblastoma, nasopharyngeal tumors, arteriovenous malformations, cavernous malformations, skull base tumors).
Device Description
Leksell Gamma Knife® Icon™ and Leksell Gamma Knife® Perfexion™ are radiosurgery systems for use in the stereotactic irradiation of head structures. Surgery is achieved by delivering a prescribed dose as one or more shots of ionizing radiation to the exact site of the target. Based on preoperative radiological examinations, the Leksell Gamma Knife unit provides highly accurate external irradiation of intra-cranial structures using collimated beams of ionizing radiation.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary does not mention AI or ML, and the device description focuses on the physical delivery of radiation based on preoperative imaging.

Yes

The device is intended for "stereotactic irradiation of head structures" for various medical conditions, including tumors and benign diseases, which falls under the definition of therapeutic treatment.

No

The device is a teletherapy device intended for stereotactic irradiation, which is a treatment modality, not a diagnostic one. It uses preoperative radiological examinations (which are diagnostic) for planning, but the device itself delivers radiation for treatment.

No

The device description explicitly states that the Leksell Gamma Knife systems are "radiosurgery systems" and "teletherapy devices" that deliver "ionizing radiation" using "collimated beams." This indicates the presence of significant hardware components for radiation delivery, making it a hardware-based medical device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, the Leksell Gamma Knife® Icon™ and Leksell Gamma Knife® Perfexion™ devices are not In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) devices.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that these devices are "teletherapy devices intended for stereotactic irradiation of head structures." This describes a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces this by stating they are "radiosurgery systems for use in the stereotactic irradiation of head structures." They deliver radiation to treat conditions.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The information does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD device, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing information about a patient's health status based on sample analysis
    • Using reagents or assays

In summary, these devices are therapeutic medical devices used for radiation treatment, not diagnostic devices used for testing samples.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Clinical testing was not required to support substantial equivalence with the predicate devices.
Testing in the form of module, integration and system level verification was performed to evaluate the performance and functionality of the new control system against requirement specification.
Regression test of unchanged functionalities in the developed system was done to ensure that new and updated functionalities did not introduce any undesirable effects.
Design and usability validation of the system have been performed by competent and professionally qualified personnel to ensure that the product fulfils the intended use and user needs. The design and usability validation was also made to ensure that the risk control measures associated with functions related to safety (FRS) for the new functionality were effective.
Results from verification and validation testing demonstrate that conformance to applicable technical requirement specification and user needs have been met.
Biocompatibility testing has been performed to ensure that all materials are biocompatible in relation to the use of the device.
