Intended Use
The Advanced Radiation Therapy Systems, Inc., "Advanced Treatment Planning System" is used to plan patient treatments for radiation therapy with external photons and electrons.
Device Description
The Advanced Treatment Planning System (ATPS) from Advanced Radiation Therapy Systems, Inc. (ARTS) is a software product that runs on a Silicon Graphics, Inc. UNIX Workstation in conjunction with specified accessory hardware. The ATPS provides the user the tools to easily perform patient treatment planning for the application of electron and photon radiation therapy utilizing input of patient anatomy from Computed Tomography (CT) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) devices. Incorporation of 3D visualization software from Advanced Visualization Systems (AVS), combined with X windows and Motif graphics, results in a graphical user interfacc that is both flexible and casy to use. See the User's Manual in Tab 5 for a more detailed description and examples of graphics. The ATPS provides both two dimensional (2D) and three dimensional (3D) dose calculation algorithms for photons and electrons.
More Information

No
The document describes a standard radiation therapy planning system with 2D and 3D dose calculation algorithms and visualization tools. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts in the provided text.

No
The device is a treatment planning system (software) used to plan radiation therapy. It does not deliver the therapy itself, which would make it a therapeutic device.

No.
The device is used for planning radiation therapy treatments, not for diagnosing diseases.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "software product that runs on a Silicon Graphics, Inc. UNIX Workstation in conjunction with specified accessory hardware." This indicates it requires specific hardware components beyond a general-purpose computer, making it not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "plan patient treatments for radiation therapy with external photons and electrons." This is a therapeutic planning function, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples in vitro.
  • Device Description: The device is a software product that uses imaging data (CT and MRI) to perform dose calculations for radiation therapy. It does not involve the analysis of biological specimens.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or other biological samples to diagnose, monitor, or predict disease.

Therefore, the Advanced Treatment Planning System is a medical device used for treatment planning, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 892.5050 Medical charged-particle radiation therapy system.

(a)
Identification. A medical charged-particle radiation therapy system is a device that produces by acceleration high energy charged particles (e.g., electrons and protons) intended for use in radiation therapy. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, treatment planning computer programs, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II. When intended for use as a quality control system, the film dosimetry system (film scanning system) included as an accessory to the device described in paragraph (a) of this section, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.
