Intended Use
The VS3 Iridium System is intended for viewing anatomical structures during invasive surgery and for viewing fluorescent images for the visual assessment of blood flow and lymphatic flow. The unit is indicated for viewing internal surgical sites during general surgical procedures. It provides an adjunctive method for the evaluation of tissue perfusion and related tissue transfer circulation in tissue and free flaps used in general, plastic, micro-and reconstructive surgical procedures. It also enables the identification of functional lymphatic vessel, and/or lymph nodes. The VS3 Iridium System is also intended to visualize tissues that have taken up the pafolacianine during procedures that are consistent with the approved labeling of that dye. Upon intravenous administration and use of an ICG consistent with its approved labeling, the Iridium Module of the VS3-IR System is used to perform intraoperative fluorescence angiography. Upon interstitial administration and use of ICG consistent with its approved labeling, the Endoscope configuration of the VS3-IR System is used to perform intraoperative fluorescence imaging and visualization of the lymphatic system, including lymphatic vessels and lymph nodes. Upon administration and use of pafolacianine in accordance with its approved labeling, the VS3-IR 785 nm System is used to perform intraoperative fluorescence imaging of tissues that have taken up the drug.
Device Description
The VS3 Iridium System is an advanced stereoscopic visualization system made up of a combination of hardware and software to provide high definition visible and near infrared (IR) fluorescent imaging. The visualization system can incorporate an endoscope for minimally invasive surgical procedures and a microscope positioned above the patient during open surgical procedures. The VS3 Iridium System including the endoscope and the microscope is designed to work with an approved infrared dye (Indocyanine green (ICG) or pafolacianine sodium injection or pafolacianine). ICG may be excited at excitation at either 785 or 805 nm, and pafolacianine is excited only by the 785 nm wavelength. The principle of operation is the same for both infrared dyes. That is, the VS3 Iridium System provides excitation light to the surgical field to excite the dye molecules and captures emission from the dye using an IR camera, enabling qualitative and quantitative measurement of the IR intensity. Near IR fluorescence imaging with ICG permits the system to visualize blood flow and related tissue circulation, of lymphatic flow. The VS3 Iridium System allows the capture of normal (white) light image in parallel with the fluorescence IR image and displays both to the surgeon to provide a view of the anatomy. In addition, the VS3 Iridium System permits recording surgical procedures, storing them on removable storage devices, and replaying the procedures. This Traditional 510(k) premarket notification is to expand the indication for use statement to include the additional cleared infrared dye, pafolacianine sodium injection, for use with infrared imaging.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a visualization system for surgical procedures using fluorescent imaging. It mentions hardware and software for capturing and displaying images, but there is no mention of AI, ML, or any algorithms that would process or interpret the images beyond basic visualization and measurement of intensity. The performance study focuses on the efficacy of the dye and the system's ability to detect lesions, not on any AI/ML-driven analysis.

No
The device is described as a "visualization system" intended for "viewing anatomical structures" and "fluorescent images" to assess "blood flow and lymphatic flow" and "visualize tissues." Its function is descriptive and diagnostic, providing information for clinicians, rather than directly treating or preventing a disease.

Yes
The device is intended for viewing anatomical structures during invasive surgery, visualizing fluorescent images for visual assessment of blood flow and lymphatic flow, and identifying functional lymphatic vessels and/or lymph nodes. This information is used by the surgeon for assessment during procedures which implies a diagnostic (assessment/evaluation) purpose. It also mentions "qualitative and quantitative measurement of the IR intensity."

No

The device description explicitly states that the VS3 Iridium System is "made up of a combination of hardware and software". It also mentions incorporating an endoscope and a microscope, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the system is for viewing anatomical structures during invasive surgery and viewing fluorescent images for the visual assessment of blood flow and lymphatic flow. It's used intraoperatively to visualize tissues and blood/lymphatic flow within the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a visualization system that uses light and an IR camera to capture images from the surgical field. It works in conjunction with intravenously or interstitially administered dyes within the patient's body.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: IVDs are designed to perform tests on specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform any tests on specimens outside the body. It is used to visualize structures and processes within the body during surgery.

The device is an in vivo imaging system used during surgical procedures, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

4. Device Description

The VS3 Iridium System is an advanced stereoscopic visualization system made up of a combination of hardware and software to provide high definition visible and near infrared (IR) fluorescent imaging. The visualization system can incorporate an endoscope for minimally invasive surgical procedures and a microscope positioned above the patient during open surgical procedures.

The VS3 Iridium System including the endoscope and the microscope is designed to work with an approved infrared dye (Indocyanine green (ICG) or pafolacianine sodium injection or pafolacianine). ICG may be excited at excitation at either 785 or 805 nm, and pafolacianine is excited only by the 785 nm wavelength. The principle of operation is the same for both infrared dyes. That is, the VS3 Iridium System provides excitation light to the surgical field to excite the dye molecules and captures emission from the dye using an IR camera, enabling qualitative and quantitative measurement of the IR intensity. Near IR fluorescence imaging with ICG permits the system to visualize blood flow and related tissue circulation, of lymphatic flow.

The VS3 Iridium System allows the capture of normal (white) light image in parallel with the fluorescence IR image and displays both to the surgeon to provide a view of the anatomy. In addition, the VS3 Iridium System permits recording surgical procedures, storing them on removable storage devices, and replaying the procedures.

This Traditional 510(k) premarket notification is to expand the indication for use statement to include the additional cleared infrared dye, pafolacianine sodium injection, for use with infrared imaging.

7. Summary of Characteristics Compared to Predicate Device

The VS3 Iridium System has the same performance as the predicate device which is the equivalent VS3 Iridium System. This 510(k) expands the indication for use to include an additional fluorescent dye, pafolacianine for use with the system.

8. Performance Data

There are no performance standards or special controls developed for confocal imaging systems. The expansion of the indication of the subject device does not change the biocompatibility, electrical safety, electromagnetic compatibility, or sterilization from the previous clearance in K191851. Software validation data was provided for minor included software updates.

9. Clinical Data

Performance of the VS3 Iridium System with pafolacianine was demonstrated through a phase 3, randomized, single dose, open-label study (clinicaltrials.gov study NCT03180307). The study was designed to investigate the safety and efficacy of OTL38) for intra-operative imaging of folate receptor positive ovarian cancer in females 18 years old or older. The proportion of patients with at least one confirmed FR+ ovarian cancer evaluable lesion detected by the combination of OTL38 and NIR fluorescent light but not under normal light or palpation was 33% (95% CI [0.243, 0.427]). Safety results related to the VS3 Iridium System imaging subgroup (n=127) showed that there were 0 treatmentemergent adverse device effects (TEAE). The ability of OTL38 coupled with the Visionsense VS3 Iridium system to detect evaluable lesions in 33% of patients coupled with the lack of TEAE demonstrate that the VS3 Iridium System is safe to use in conjunction with the OTL38 drug.

10. Conclusion

The VS3 Iridium System has the same general intended use, materials, design, energy source, principle of operation and performance as the primary predicate device, VS3 Iridium System cleared under 510(k) K183453 and the secondary predicate device, VS3 Iridium System cleared under 510(k) K191851. Therefore, the VS3 Iridium System is found to be substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device, VS3 Iridium System (K183453 and K191851) as the differences do not raise new questions of safety and efficacy.
