The summary describes a physical device for patient positioning and immobilization during radiation therapy. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML. The manufacturing process uses 3D printing, but this is a fabrication method, not an AI/ML application.
No.
The device is used for positioning and immobilization during radiation therapy, which is a treatment, but the device itself does not deliver the therapy or directly treat the disease. It facilitates the treatment.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a "BiteBlock" intended for repeat positioning and immobilization of patients during external beam radiation therapy. Its purpose is to physically aid in treatment delivery, not to diagnose a condition or disease.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "multi-configuration, single patient reusable device" manufactured using 3D printing technology, indicating it is a physical object, not software.
Based on the provided information, the Lollipop BiteBlock from RadTec Medical Devices, Inc. is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "repeat positioning and immobilization of patients undergoing or receiving a course of external beam radiation therapy." This is a physical positioning and immobilization function, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The device is described as a "multi-configuration, single patient reusable device intended to be used for the planning, positioning, and re-positioning of a patient's oral cavity." This further reinforces its role in physical manipulation and positioning during treatment.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide information about a patient's health status based on such analysis.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on physical properties like force resistance and radiation attenuation, which are relevant to its function as a positioning and shielding device during radiation therapy, not as a diagnostic tool.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Lollipop BiteBlock does not fit this description.

Device Description
The Lollipop BiteBlock is a multi-configuration, single patient reusable device intended to be used for the planning, positioning, and re-positioning of a patient's oral cavity while they undergo or receive a course of external beam radiation therapy for the treatment of cancer and other diseases. The Lollipop BiteBlock is designed for use in radiation therapy departments in hospitals and/or free-standing treatment centers.
The Lollipop BiteBlock is available in four configurations: lateral tongue localization (LTL), mouth open tongue forward (MOTF), mouth open tongue depressed (MOTD), and mouth open tongue (forward) closed (MOTC). The choice of which configuration is appropriate to the patient is left to the physician's discretion.
The Lollipop BiteBlock is manufactured using 3D printing technology. At least one sample, per lot, from each of the four configurations is measured to ensure that it meets device specifications. The Lollipop BiteBlock is provided to the physician as the final finished device. The 3D electronic files are not sent to the physician at any time.

Summary of Performance Studies
Vertical Tongue Force: A force of ≥ 175 lbF was applied to represent the worst-case scenario as it is 10-20% over the max force of the human tongue. Each construct was visually inspected for any internal or external fractures or cracks. None of the devices had any breaking, cracking, or fracturing therefore meeting the acceptance criteria and passing the test.
"Bite" Crush Force: The subject device was placed between the upper and lower jaws of an anthropomorphic jaw model with teeth to simulate a realistic treatment position and distribution of force. A force of ≥ 250 lbF was applied to represent worst-case scenario as it is 10-20% over the max force of the human jaw. Each construct was visually inspected for any internal or external fractures or cracks. None of the devices had any breaking, cracking, or fracturing therefore meeting the acceptance criteria and passing the test.
Backscatter Radiation Attenuation: The subject device was placed into a solid water phantom with sheets of GafChromic EBT3 film placed above and below the device. A dose of 4 Gy was used for irradiation. Irradiation was performed twice, once with a lead sheet (to generate back scatter) and once without. The lead sheet was used as a worstcase condition as it has a significantly higher backscatter than teeth, dental fillings, or other dental appliances. The test found that the subject device has a shielding efficacy just below "1" (0.962) demonstrating shielding performance similar to that of the predicate.

510(k) Summary
The following tests were performed to demonstrate equivalence to the predicate device
- Vertical Tongue Force: A force of ≥ 175 lbF was applied to represent the worst-case . scenario as it is 10-20% over the max force of the human tongue. Each construct was visually inspected for any internal or external fractures or cracks. None of the devices had any breaking, cracking, or fracturing therefore meeting the acceptance criteria and passing the test.
- . "Bite" Crush Force: The subject device was placed between the upper and lower jaws of an anthropomorphic jaw model with teeth to simulate a realistic treatment position and distribution of force. A force of ≥ 250 lbF was applied to represent worst-case scenario as it is 10-20% over the max force of the human jaw. Each construct was visually inspected for any internal or external fractures or cracks. None of the devices had any breaking, cracking, or fracturing therefore meeting the acceptance criteria and passing the test.
- . Backscatter Radiation Attenuation: The subject device was placed into a solid water phantom with sheets of GafChromic EBT3 film placed above and below the device. A dose of 4 Gy was used for irradiation. Irradiation was performed twice, once with a lead sheet (to generate back scatter) and once without. The lead sheet was used as a worstcase condition as it has a significantly higher backscatter than teeth, dental fillings, or other dental appliances. The test found that the subject device has a shielding efficacy just below "1" (0.962) demonstrating shielding performance similar to that of the predicate.
CONCLUSION
Based on the testing performed it can be concluded that the subject device does not raise new issues of safety or effectiveness compared to the predicate device. The similar indications for use, technological characteristics, and performance characteristics for the proposed Lollipop BiteBlock are assessed to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
