No
The document describes a laser system with different pulse configurations ("Virtual Basket" and "Magneto") controlled via a graphical user interface. There is no mention of AI or ML being used for image processing, data analysis, or decision-making within the device's operation. The "special effects" are described as pre-set pulse patterns, not adaptive or learning algorithms.
Yes
Explanation: The device performs various surgical procedures like incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, and haemostasis to treat medical conditions, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic device designed to cure, mitigate, or treat diseases or conditions.
No
The device is described as a "surgical laser system" used for various surgical procedures, including incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, and haemostasis of soft tissue and calculi. These are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones. The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section lists a wide range of surgical applications across multiple medical specialties, none of which involve diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components including power electronics, control electronics (microcontroller board and embedded PC), a cooling system, and an optical bench. It is a physical laser system with software controlling its operation, not a standalone software device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. They perform tests outside the body.
- Device Function: The description clearly states that the Litho laser system is used in surgical procedures for incision, excision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, and haemostasis of soft tissue and calculi within the body. It is a surgical tool used directly on the patient.
- Intended Use: The intended use lists various surgical applications across multiple medical specialties, all involving direct intervention on the patient's tissues or stones.
- Device Description: The description details the components of a surgical laser system, including power electronics, control electronics, a cooling system, and an optical bench, all designed for delivering laser energy for surgical purposes.
The device's function and intended use are entirely focused on performing surgical procedures in vivo (within the living body), which is the opposite of the in vitro (outside the living body) nature of IVDs.

Device Description
Litho family includes surgical laser devices that are used by health care professionals in professional healthcare environments. Litho family includes the following models: Litho 60, Litho 100 and Litho 150. They differ only for the maximum power: 60, 105 and 152, respectively.
Litho devices are connected to optical fibers accessories (separately FDA cleared: K131473, K160513, K200234).
The device is equipped with a graphical user interface through which the user can set energy, frequency and pulse duration level. Different pre-sets are available among which the so called "special effects": Virtual Basket and Magneto. Virtual basket and Magneto are optional configurations.
Virtual basket had been introduced with K192600 (for Litho 100) and already included in Litho 150 510K (K201455). While, Magneto is the object of the present 510K.
Virtual basket consists of two sub-pulses separated by a certain delay. The first pulse generates a cavitation bubble and the second one is emitted when the first bubble reaches its maximum expansion. This allows the stone to be "caught" to be fragmentated. The set energy is the sum of the two sub-pulses. While Magneto consists of a pulse with a duration higher than standard one (2000 μs vs 1100 μs). Devices with Magneto configuration installed are characterized by black covers and Magneto logos.
The device can be divided into four main sections:
- . Power electronics: they manage power supplied to all device compartments;
- . Control electronics: they mainly consist of a microcontroller board where device main firmware (FW) is resident and a PC embedded with graphical user interface where device software (SW) runs;
- Cooling system: it cools the laser source pumping chamber;
- . Optical bench.
