The document describes an "automatic reconstruction (algorithm)" for creating 3D images and overlaying images for navigation, but it does not mention AI, ML, or related terms like deep learning, neural networks, or training/inference on large datasets. The testing described focuses on accuracy and usability, not on the performance of an AI/ML model.
No.
The device is an image-guidance tool used during surgical procedures to assist the physician in aligning a device with a virtual path, rather than directly providing therapy.
No
Explanation: ClarifEye is described as an "intra-operative image-guidance tool" that provides assistance during surgical and interventional therapy, specifically to help align a device with a virtual path. It aids in navigation and placement of medical devices but does not diagnose a condition or disease.
No
While the device description states "ClarifEye is a software medical device," the intended use and device description clearly indicate it is intended to be used in combination with the "compatible ClarifEye Needle and ClarifEye Markers," which are physical components. The ClarifEye Needle is described as a "manual, surgical instrument." Therefore, the overall system is not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that ClarifEye is an "intra-operative image-guidance tool used during surgical and interventional therapy." It assists the physician in aligning a surgical device with a planned path within the patient's body. This is a surgical guidance tool, not a device used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
- Device Description: The description reinforces its role as a software medical device that integrates imaging modalities to provide real-time navigational assistance during surgery.
- Functionality: The core function is image guidance for surgical procedures, specifically spine surgery. It helps with device placement based on anatomical imaging.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), providing diagnostic information based on such analysis, or being used for in vitro testing.
The device is a surgical navigation system, which falls under a different regulatory category than In Vitro Diagnostics.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
ClarifEye is intended to be an intra-operative image-guidance tool used during surgical and interventional therapy. It provides assistance to the performing physician to align a device with a virtual path that is planned on a 3D volume of the anatomy. This alignment is provided in the following ways:
-The virtual path is superimposed with a live video image of the area of interest.
-The position of the ClarifEye Needle is superimposed with the video images of the area of interest and/or the 3D images of the anatomy.
ClarifEye is intended to be used on patients who have been elected for procedures where a straight, rigid device is placed in the spine, such as sacral, lumbar and thoracic pedicle screw placement. ClarifEye is indicated for procedures where a reference to bony anatomical structures can be established using skin markers as a reference.
The ClarifEye Needle is a manual, surgical instrument intended to be used during spine surgery to facilitate placement of guidewires. The needle may be used as part of a planning and intraoperative guidance system (i.e. Philips intra-operative image guidance tool) to enable open or percutaneous image guided therapy. The ClarifEye Needle is indicated for use during posterior pedicle screw procedures, such as in the sacral, lumbar and thoracic spinal regions, in which the use of image guided surgery may be appropriate.
The ClarifEye Needle is EtO sterilized, for single use only and have to be disposed after use, according to local waste disposal methods for potentially bio hazardous material.

Device Description
ClarifEye is a software medical device that is intended to be an intra-operative image-guidance tool used during surgical and interventional therapy.
It will be offered as an optional accessory to the Philips interventional fluoroscopic X-ray system, from which it receives 2D X-ray and video images. ClarifEye implements an automatic reconstruction (algorithm) to create 3D CBCT images from a rotational scan acquired on the X-ray system.
ClarifEye integrates the live video images of the surgical view and live 2D X-ray image which it overlays on the planned path shown in the reconstructed 3D CBCT image to provide navigational assistance, in real-time. ClarifEye provides assistance to the performing physician to align a device, such as a needle with a virtual path that is planned on a 3D image of the anatomy. The created 3D planning can be overlaid on live video images ("Augmented View") or live 2D fluoroscopy images, to monitor device deployment during the procedure.
ClarifEye is intended to be used in combination with the compatible ClarifEye Needle and ClarifEye Markers.
The ClarifEye Needle is for optional use only, when needle tip tracking is desired.

Non-clinical software verification testing was performed to verify that all functional and non functional requirements of the System Requirements Specification, User Interaction Design as well as the identified safety Risk Control Measures from the Detailed Risk Management Matrix and the Privacy and Security requirements for ClarifEye have been implemented. Results demonstrated that all executed verification test passed.
Software validation testing was performed to validate that ClarifEye conforms to its intended use, claims, user and service needs. The validation consisted of:
- Usability validation with orthopedic/neuro spine surgeons and monitoring nurse/technicians in a simulated use environment.
- In-house simulated use design validation with Clinical Scientists/Marketing specialists who executed validation protocols in the form of a device workflow where a rigid instrument was placed in a spine object (phantom).
- Service user needs validation by a service engineer executing validation protocols covering service scenarios.
- Algorithms implemented in ClarifEye were evaluated as part of the clinical workflow in the in-house simulated use and usability validation studies.
Testing for the ClarifEye Needle accessory was performed to ensure that functional requirements have been met, and that core functions execute as expected. A validation protocol simulating the clinical workflow was also executed. Usability evaluation survey in test environments that simulated the expected conditions of actual use was successfully executed by representative users.

Non-clinical software verification testing has been performed to verify that all functional and non functional requirements of the System Requirements Specification, User Interaction Design as well as the identified safety Risk Control Measures from the Detailed Risk Management Matrix and the Privacy and Security requirements for ClarifEye have been implemented. Results demonstrated that all executed verification test passed.
The system has demonstrated a mean navigational accuracy of ≤ 2 mm for positional (tip) displacement and ≤2º for trajectory angle displacement according to ASTM F2554-10 in phantom tests.
A pig cadaver study demonstrated a mean accuracy of pedicle screw placement in thorocolumbar vertebrae by minimal invasive procedures with device tracking using the ClarifEye Needle of 2.0 ± 1.1 and 1.6 ± 0.8 mm at the screw tip and head, respectively. The mean angular accuracy was 1.7 ± 1.7° (axial) 1.6 ± 1.2° (sagittal).
A human cadaver study demonstrated a mean accuracy in minimal invasive thoracolumbar needle placement without device tracking of 2.2 ± 1.3 mm at the entry point/needle tip. The mean angular accuracy was 0.9 ± 0.8° (axial and sagittal).
Software validation testing has been performed to validate that ClarifEye conforms to its intended use, claims, user and service needs. The validation consisted of the following activities:
- Usability validation was performed with both orthopedic/neuro spine surgeons and monitoring nurse/technicians in a simulated use environment in a simulated environment. ClarifEye was found to be safe and effective for the intended use, users and use environment.
- In-house simulated use design validation was performed with Clinical ● Scientists/Marketing specialists that fulfill the intended user profile. The participants executed validation protocols in the form of a device workflow whereby a rigid instrument was placed in a spine object (phantom). Results demonstrated that all executed validation protocols were passed. ClarifEye conforms to its intended use and user needs.
- . Service user needs validation was performed by a service engineer executing validation protocols covering service scenarios. Results demonstrated that all executed validation protocols were passed.
- . The algorithms implemented in ClarifEye were evaluated as part of the clinical workflow in the in-house simulated use and usability validation studies.
Testing for the ClarifEve Needle accessory was performed to ensure that functional requirements have been met, and that core functions execute as expected.
A validation protocol simulating the clinical workflow was also executed to demonstrate that the ClarifEye Needle could be used as intended.
Usability evaluation survey in test environments that simulated the expected conditions of actual use was successfully executed by representative users.

Usability validation was performed with both orthopedic/neuro spine surgeons and monitoring nurse/technicians in a simulated use environment in a simulated environment. The ClarifEye Needle accessory was found to be safe and effective for the intended use, users and use environment.
Therefore results from usability demonstrate that the ClarifEye Needle is safe and effective for its intended use.
All these tests were used to support substantial equivalence of the subject device and demonstrate that ClarifEye and ClarifEye Needle:
- Complies with the aforementioned international and FDA-recognized consensus standards and FDA guidance documents, and
- . Meets the acceptance criteria and is adequate for its intended use.
Based on the information provided above, ClarifEye is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed predicate device XperGuide in terms of safety and effectiveness.
Based on the information provided above, the ClarifEye Needle is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed Stryker KWIC Needle in terms of safety and effectiveness.
The following performance data was provided as support of a marketing claim Summary of Clinical Performance Data: for the clinical accuracy.
Clinical data
A prospective planned, single arm, single center observational study with patients outside the United States eligible for spine procedures surgery in which patients would require pedicle screw placement.
The primary purpose of the study was to evaluate the accuracy of using the navigation software during open spine procedures.
Procedures included those such as: deformity correction (scoliosis/kyphosis), spinal fusion, degenerative disease requiring vertebral height correction, spondylolisthesis, stenosis (spinal of foraminal) and fractures.
Primary Objective:
- To estimate the accuracy of pedicle screw placement using Surgical ● Navigation on post-procedural CBCT
Endpoint: Accuracy of screw placement was evaluated using a slightly adapted Gertzbein classification
Twenty (20) subjects enrolled in the study were included in the analysis of the primary objective. Scoliosis subjects corresponded to 65% of the total cohort including one post-operative revision surgery.
- The accuracy of pedicle screw placement using ClarifEve was 94.1% ● (238/253 accurately placed screws). Grading of pedicle screw placement was done according to the recognized Gertzbein classification for the lumbar and thoracic region and slightly adapted for the cervical screw placements. A grading 0 and 1 were seen as accurate placement.
- The mean accuracy between the distance between the planned path and device position at the tip of the screw and the screw head was 2.2 ± 1.56 mm and 2.0 ± 1.31 mm, respectively. The angular accuracy was 2.0 ± 2.0° (axial) 1.7 ± 1.5° (sagittal).

| | These results substantiates the clinical accuracy claim:
For open surgery, clinical accuracy of pedicle screw placement according to the
Gertzbein scale is 94.1%. |

Equivalence
Conclusion: | ClarifEye is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed predicate device
XperGuide (K131263) in terms of indications for use, technological characteristics
and safety and effectiveness. |
| | The ClarifEye Needle is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed
Stryker KWIC Needle (K140868) in terms of indications for use, technological
characteristics and safety and effectiveness. |
| | Additionally, substantial equivalence was demonstrated by non-clinical tests
provided in this 510(k) premarket notification. These tests demonstrate that
ClarifEye and the ClarifEye Needle comply with the user need requirements as
well as the requirements specified in the international and FDA-recognized
consensus standards and is as safe and effective as its predicate device without
raising any new safety and/or effectiveness concerns.
