Intended Use
The ScanTech laser scanning handpiece is designed for use in surgical applications requiring the excision, incision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation and photo thermolysis of soft tissue in medical specialties including: general surgery, plastic surgery, aesthetic surgery, dermatology, ophthalmology including, but not limited to use in oculoplasty. The ScanTech laser scanning handpiece is designed for use in surgical applications requiring the excision, incision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation and photo thermolysis of soft tissue in medical specialies including: general surgery, plastic surgery, aesthetic surgery, dermatology, ophthalmology (timited to periobital dermis).
Device Description
The Phantom ScanTech handpiece is intended to be used with the Phantom Family of Medical Lasers to deliver a broad spectrum of laser light energy for use in surgical applications generally requiring the ablation, vaporization, excision, incision and coagulation of soft tissue in a variety of medical specialties. The Phantom ScanTech handpiece is composed of the following main components: Handpiece with dual galvo X - Y scanning capabilities Control / power cable Laser control / display panel interface CPU based Laser control system CPU controlled power supply Removable spatula-bayonet tip Screw ring attachment for articulated arm Used in conjunction with the Phantom Family of Medical Lase automated scanning device to accurately and quickly apply computer-controlled patterns of various shapes and sizes. The Physician, or his/her assistant, will select the desired shape, size and density, as well as other operating parameters, from the Phantom laser's interactive touch screen.
More Information

No
The description mentions "computer-controlled patterns" and a "CPU based Laser control system," which indicates automation and digital control, but there is no mention of AI or ML algorithms for learning, adaptation, or complex decision-making based on data.

Yes
The device is clearly indicated for surgical applications involving the excision, incision, ablation, vaporization, and coagulation and photothermolysis of soft tissue, which are all therapeutic actions.

No

The device description and intended use clearly state that the ScanTech laser scanning handpiece is designed for surgical applications involving tissue modification (e.g., excision, incision, ablation) using laser energy, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components including a handpiece, control/power cable, laser control/display panel interface, CPU based laser control system, CPU controlled power supply, removable spatula-bayonet tip, and screw ring attachment.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. They are used outside the body (in vitro).
  • Device Function: The ScanTech laser scanning handpiece is described as a surgical tool used for direct interaction with soft tissue within the body (in vivo) for procedures like excision, incision, ablation, vaporization, coagulation, and photothermolysis.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "surgical applications" and lists various medical specialties where it's used for treating soft tissue.
  • Device Description: The description details components related to delivering laser energy for surgical procedures, not for analyzing biological samples.

The device is a surgical laser handpiece, which is a type of medical device used for treatment, not for diagnostic testing of samples.
