Intended Use
The Mazor X is indicated for precise positioning of surgical implants during general spinal and brain surgery. It may be used in either open or minimally invasive or percutaneous procedures. Mazor X 3D imaging capabilities provide a processing and conversion of 2D fluoroscopic projections from standard C-Arms into volumetric 3D image. It is intended to be used whenever the clinician and/or patient benefits from generated 3D imaging of high contrast objects.
Device Description
The Mazor X hosts guidance for spine and brain procedures and intra-operative 3D image processing capabilities. It enables the surgeon to precisely position surgical instruments and/or implants (in spinal surgery). The planning of the surgical procedure and virtual placement of surgical instruments and/or implants (e.g., a screw) can be achieved through pre-operation planning based on the patient's CT scan or intraoperative planning based on Mazor X 3D Scan image or on a 3D image uploaded from an external 3D image acquiring system. The Mazor X enables accurate deployment of surgical accessories in the precise anatomical location according to predefined planning. With the imaging capabilities of the system, the user can also visualize the implants on the patients CT. The Mazor X is a device modification of the original Mazor X System cleared in 510(k) K163221.
More Information

No
The summary describes image processing and registration algorithms, but there is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like training sets or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML models. The validation focuses on standard software testing and algorithm validation.

No.
The device is indicated for precise positioning of surgical implants during spinal and brain surgery. It is a surgical guidance system that aids in the accurate deployment of surgical accessories, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition itself.

No

Explanation: The device is indicated for precise positioning of surgical implants and processing 2D fluoroscopic projections into volumetric 3D images for surgical guidance. It enables planning and accurate deployment of surgical accessories. It does not state that it is used to diagnose a disease or condition.

No

The device description explicitly states that the Mazor X "hosts guidance for spine and brain procedures and intra-operative 3D image processing capabilities" and "enables the surgeon to precisely position surgical instruments and/or implants". This implies a physical system that interacts with the surgical environment, not just software. Furthermore, it is described as a modification of the "original Mazor X System," which is a robotic surgical system, indicating a hardware component.

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 "precise positioning of surgical implants during general spinal and brain surgery." This describes a surgical guidance system, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Device Description: The description focuses on surgical planning, instrument positioning, and intra-operative imaging capabilities to aid in surgery. It does not mention analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device would typically involve analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or other bodily fluids or samples. This device works with imaging data to guide surgical procedures.

Therefore, the Mazor X, as described, falls under the category of a surgical guidance system, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
