Yes
The device is intended for surgical applications requiring the ablation, vaporization, excision, incision, and coagulation of soft tissue, which are therapeutic actions to treat various conditions like warts, acne scars, and skin resurfacing.
No
The device is described as a medical laser system intended for surgical applications like ablation, vaporization, excision, incision, and coagulation of soft tissue. These are therapeutic procedures, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components including laser sources (10600nm and 1550nm), a beam delivery system (articulated arm, handpiece, scanner), a display with a graphical user interface, and a footswitch. The performance studies also involve in vivo testing on animals, which is indicative of a hardware device.
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 the device is for "surgical applications requiring the ablation, vaporization, excision, incision, and coagulation of soft tissue" in medical specialties like aesthetic surgery (dermatology and plastic surgery). This describes a device used on a patient for treatment, not a device used to test samples from a patient in a laboratory setting.
- Device Description: The description details a medical laser system with different wavelengths, handpieces, and a scanner. This is consistent with a surgical laser device.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), performing diagnostic tests, or providing information for diagnosis.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device's function is to directly treat tissue through laser energy.

In vivo testing on minipigs was performed to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the Fiber Laser Source (1550nm), with a maximum energy level of 80mJ. Testing was performed safely on the test animals, and the histology results complied with the FDA requirements, from 0 to 14 days. Three animals were used in this study.
# Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non-clinical tests were conducted according to IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-6, IEC 62366-1, IEC 62304, IEC 60601-2-22, IEC 60825-1, and ISO 10993-1. In addition, in vivo testing on minipigs and histological analysis were performed to demonstrate safety and effectiveness of the Fiber Laser Source (1550nm), with a maximum energy level of 80mJ. (sample size: 3 animals). Testing was performed safely on the test animals, and the histology results complied with the FDA requirements, from 0 to 14 days. Re-epithelization was observed three days after radiation in all specimens. Slight erythema was noted as the primary side effect in higher energy settings, but it was transient and resolved within days. No cases of oedema were observed, and overall, the healing process was uncomplicated. Histologic analysis performed with H&E staining at various time points (days 1, 4, and 14) revealed predictable levels of ablation and coagulation depending on the energy settings used, with the fiber laser causing predominantly coagulation while the CO2 laser focused on ablation. By day 4, re-epithelization of the skin was already evident, and by day 14, the skin had fully healed. The findings confirm that the device is equivalent to other approved technologies, with precise control over energy output and microspot density to facilitate rapid healing and minimize side effects.
