No.
The device is described as an "imaging accessory" that provides "radiographic/fluoroscopic images" for use with radiotherapy devices. Its purpose is to acquire images for simulations and high energy treatment machines, not to provide therapy itself. It is explicitly indicated for use with and not as a radiotherapy device.
No
The provided text indicates that RTIS is an imaging accessory used with radiotherapy devices to provide images for simulations and treatment. It is described as a component of imaging systems. There is no mention of it being used to diagnose conditions or diseases.
No
The device description explicitly states that RTIS is a "component of imaging systems" and an "imaging accessory" for radiotherapy devices, implying it is a hardware component that provides imaging capabilities. It is not described as a standalone software application.
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 RTIS is an "imaging accessory indicated for use with radiotherapy devices" and provides images for "simulations" and "high energy treatment machines." This describes a device used for imaging the patient's anatomy during radiotherapy planning and treatment, not for analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside the body.
- Device Description: The description reinforces its role as a component of imaging systems used with radiotherapy devices, providing "simulator fluoroscopic/radiographic images and high energy treatment images." Again, this points to imaging the patient directly.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro analysis.
IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of diseases or conditions. The RTIS device, as described, is an imaging tool used in the context of radiotherapy, which is a treatment modality.

Device Description
RTIS is a component of imaging systems for use with radiotherapy devices such as linear accelerators and simulators for various imaging tasks. It may be integrated into systems such as Varian PortalVision® and VARiS® Digital Imaging Option and offers the capability of a realtime imager that can provide both high quality simulator fluoroscopic/radiographic images and high energy treatment images.
Whereas the imaging mechanism in the predicate Electronic Portal Imaging System is an ionization chamber, for RTIS it is an image detector. The image detector is a photo-diode array of thin film transistors (TFT) based on amorphous silicon technology. When used in combination with a scintillating material, the array can be used for x-ray imaging applications. The array contains 512 x 512 pixels which convert light into electrical charge. Each of the pixels contain a TFT which transfers the charge to the data lines when a voltage pulse is applied to the gate line. The charge is read from the data by external amplifiers.

Dear Mr. Will:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for question and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsmamain.html'
Sincerely vours.
