No
The description focuses on traditional algorithms like Monte Carlo and data integrity checks, with no mention of AI/ML terms or methodologies.
No
The device is described as quality assurance software used for data transfer integrity checks, secondary dose calculation, and treatment plan verification, specifically stating it is not a treatment planning system or a radiation delivery device. Its primary purpose is quality assurance rather than direct treatment or diagnosis.
No.
AccuCheck is explicitly described as quality assurance software for radiotherapy, performing tasks like data integrity checks, secondary dose calculations, and treatment plan/delivery verification. It is not used for diagnosing medical conditions or diseases in patients. Instead, it assesses the accuracy and integrity of radiotherapy plans and deliveries.
Yes
The device description explicitly states "AccuCheck is a quality assurance software" and details its functions as software modules (TPS Check, Dose Check, Transfer Check, Pre-treatment Check, Treatment Check) that process data from other medical devices (TPS, LINAC delivery logs). There is no mention of accompanying hardware components included with the device itself.
Based on the provided information, AccuCheck is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- AccuCheck's Function: AccuCheck's intended use and device description clearly state that it is a quality assurance software for radiotherapy. Its functions involve:
- Data transfer integrity checks.
- Secondary dose calculations using a Monte Carlo algorithm.
- Treatment plan verification.
- Independent dose verification based on LINAC delivery logs.
- No Specimen Analysis: AccuCheck does not analyze any biological specimens from a patient. It operates on data related to the radiotherapy treatment plan and delivery, which are physical parameters and logs, not biological samples.
Therefore, AccuCheck falls under the category of medical device software used in the context of radiation therapy, but it does not meet the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
AccuCheck is a quality assurance software used for data transfer integrity check, secondary dose calculation with Monte Carlo algorithm, and treatment plan verification in radiotherapy. AccuCheck also provides independent dose verification based on LINAC delivery log after radiotherapy plan execution. AccuCheck is not a treatment planning system or a radiation delivery device. It is to be used only by trained radiation oncology personnel for quality assurance purposes.
AccuCheck performs using the TPS Check module to check related parameters in the radiotherapy plan to determine if the plan is executable by the linear accelerator( LINAC).
AccuCheck also performs using the Dose Check module to conduct dose calculation verification for radiation treatment plans before radiotherapy by doing an independent calculation of radiation dose using Monte Carlo algorithm. Radiation dose is initially calculated by a Treatment Planning System (TPS).
AccuCheck performs using the Transfer Check module to verify the integrity of the treatment plan transmitted from TPS to the LINAC to check if errors occur during the transmission.
AccuCheck performs dose delivery quality assurance for radiation treatment plans by using the measured data recorded in a LINAC's delivery log files to reconstruct executed plan and calculate delivered dose. This is achieved through the software module of the Subject Device called Pre-treatment Check and Treatment Check. The difference lies in the usage scenario, where Pre-treatment Check processes the logs of the first execution of the treatment plan in LINAC without a patient actually being treated, while treatment check processes the logs of the second and subsequent execution of the treatment plan in LINAC with a patient actually being treated. AccuCheck cannot be used for log verification, but rather for dose calculation based on logs such as LINAC delivery log data. The reconstruct of the executed plan and calculation of the delivered dose from delivery logs on LINAC machines, including Varian LINAC and Elekta LINAC, are supported by AccuCheck.
The product provides with multiple tools to assist the analysis, including dose volume histogram, Gamma analysis, target coverage, Gamma passing rate of each ROI, dose statistics and clinical targets evaluation.

6. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE
AccuCheck designed the corresponding functional modules considering the timeline of radiotherapy treatment. AccuCheck verified the feasibility and dose accuracy of the treatment plan before implementation. After execution, AccuCheck verified the consistency of data transmission and read the accelerator execution log to restore the treatment plan.
The primary technical feature of AccuCheck and its predicate device is to check the information of the plan files according to relative parameters to ensure the quality of the treatment plan. The verification of dose is an important part of ensuring the quality of treatment plan. When verifying the dose of the treatment plan, AccuCheck and its predicate device are used to perform a secondary dose calculation on the read or imported file and compare with the original plan dose, and present the results in various ways. The technological characteristics are believed to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device. The following comparison table "Device Comparison Table" provides a detailed comparison.
