Intended Use
AtlasPlan is intended to be used for pre- and intra-operative planning of stereotactic procedures. This software module correlates a patient's anatomy (obtained from CT or MRI scans) with an anatomical atlas of the brain. AtlasPlan may be used alone or in conjunction with neurosurgery, radiotherapy, and radiosurgery planning systems.
Device Description
AtlasPlan is a stereotactic planning tool which gives the clinician access to a digitized atlas of the brain. The AtlasPlan system, addressed in this premarket notification, has the same intended use and technological characteristics as the commercially available MIDCO cass System. Like the cass System, AtlasPlan utilizes a workstation to compare patient scans (CT or MRI) with a digitized stereotactic atlas. In addition, both systems allow the user to view entry and target points and labels for anatomical structures. Both systems output BRW coordinates for use in further procedure planning.

Not Found

No
The description focuses on correlating patient anatomy with a digitized atlas and comparing scans with a digitized stereotactic atlas. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts like training/test sets, performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML, or image processing techniques that might imply AI/ML. The predicate devices are also from a time period where AI/ML in medical devices was less common.

No
The device is described as a "stereotactic planning tool" used for pre- and intra-operative planning. Its function is to correlate patient anatomy with an anatomical atlas and output coordinates for further procedure planning, rather than directly treating or diagnosing a condition.

No

This device is for pre- and intra-operative planning, correlating patient anatomy with an anatomical atlas of the brain to assist in surgical procedures. It does not perform diagnosis or analyze medical images to detect conditions.

Yes

The device description explicitly states "AtlasPlan is a stereotactic planning tool which gives the clinician access to a digitized atlas of the brain." and "The AtlasPlan system, addressed in this premarket notification, has the same intended use and technological characteristics as the commercially available MIDCO cass System." The description focuses on the software's function of comparing patient scans with a digitized atlas and outputting coordinates, without mentioning any specific hardware components included in the submission. While it utilizes a workstation and patient scans (which require hardware to acquire), the device itself, as described, appears to be the software component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "pre- and intra-operative planning of stereotactic procedures." This involves using imaging data to guide surgical or radiation procedures directly on the patient.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces this by stating it's a "stereotactic planning tool" that compares patient scans with a brain atlas to determine entry and target points and output coordinates for procedure planning.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: An IVD is a device intended for use in vitro (outside the body) for the examination of specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not involve the analysis of biological specimens.

The device is clearly focused on in vivo planning and guidance for medical procedures performed directly on the patient.

Substantial Equivalence Determination

A summary of the information contained in this premarket notification that addresses safety and effectiveness follows.

Description of the Device and Basis for Substantial Equivalence

AtlasPlan is a stereotactic planning tool which gives the clinician access to a digitized atlas of the brain. The AtlasPlan system, addressed in this premarket notification, has the same intended use and technological characteristics as the commercially available MIDCO cass System. Like the cass System, AtlasPlan utilizes a workstation to compare patient scans (CT or MRI) with a digitized stereotactic atlas.
