Intended Use
The RefleXion Medical Radiotherapy System is indicated for treatment planning and precise delivery of image-guided radiation therapy, stereotactic radiotherapy, or stereotactic radiosurgery for tumors or other targeted tissues anywhere in the body when radiation treatment is indicated, while minimizing the delivery of radiation to vital healthy tissue. The megavoltage X-ray radiation is delivered in a rotational, modulated, image-guided format in accordance with the physician approved plan.
Device Description
The RefleXion Medical Radiotherapy System (RMRS), a hybrid imaging-therapy system, is capable of delivering intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT), stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT) and stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) utilizing an on-board kilovoltage CT (kVCT) system for patient localization and field sizes based on jaws which are 40 cm wide, with slice width choices of 1.0 cm and 2.0 cm to optimize patient treatment. It is also equipped with a binary multileaf collimator (MLC) used to create intensity modulated radiation fields at a source-axis distance of 85 cm. It can achieve a nominal dose rate of 850 cGy/min. The RMRS consists of the following clinical subsystems: 6 MV photon radiotherapy delivery, Kilovoltage (KV) X-ray CT imaging, MV X-ray detection, and treatment planning. The LINAC along with the fixed primary collimator, adjustable collimators, and multileaf collimator (MLC) mount in the therapy plane. The kVCT imaging plane is separate from the therapy plane and provides images used to localize the patient prior to treatment. Additionally, the system is designed architecturally to include PET imaging components for future product enhancements. Although the PET subsystem hardware is present in the system, its functionality is currently disabled.

The provided text describes a radiotherapy system with imaging capabilities and treatment planning features. It details the hardware components, imaging modalities, and performance metrics. There is no mention of AI, ML, deep learning, or any related terms in the description, intended use, or performance studies summary. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

Yes
The RefleXion Medical Radiotherapy System is indicated for treatment planning and precise delivery of image-guided radiation therapy, stereotactic radiotherapy, or stereotactic radiosurgery for tumors or other targeted tissues, which directly treats medical conditions.

No

This device is a radiotherapy system designed for treatment and therapy delivery, not for diagnosing medical conditions. While it uses imaging for patient localization, its primary function is therapeutic.

No

The device description clearly outlines multiple hardware components including a LINAC, collimators, MLC, and a kVCT system, indicating it is a physical radiotherapy system with integrated software, not a software-only device.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "treatment planning and precise delivery of image-guided radiation therapy, stereotactic radiotherapy, or stereotactic radiosurgery for tumors or other targeted tissues anywhere in the body". This describes a therapeutic device that delivers radiation to treat a condition, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
  • Device Description: The description details a "hybrid imaging-therapy system" that delivers radiation therapy (IMRT, SBRT, SRT, SRS) and uses imaging (kVCT) for patient localization prior to treatment. It does not mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analysis of biological specimens (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Reagents or assays
    • Providing diagnostic information
    • Measuring biomarkers or analytes

The device is clearly a radiotherapy system used for delivering treatment, which falls under a different regulatory classification than IVDs.

COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE

The RefleXion Medical Radiotherapy System and the predicate device employ the same fundamental scientific principles and have substantially equivalent principles of operation and technological characteristics.

The treatment delivery components of the RefleXion and TomoTherapy devices are the same or equivalent with regards to energy, beam properties, materials and other physical properties.

Key differences between the subject device and the predicate device include the following:

  • . Faster rotation of the system at 60 RPM.
  • Use of a new faster-speed binary MLC design.
  • Addition of a kVCT subsystem for patient positioning.

CONCLUSION

The non-clinical data support the safety of the device and the verification and validation testing performed demonstrates that the RefleXion Medical Radiotherapy System performs as intended in the specified use conditions. RefleXion therefore considers the RefleXion Medical Radiotherapy System to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
