The summary describes a surgical laser system with different wavelengths for various procedures. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven decision-making components. The device description focuses on the laser technology itself.
Yes
The device's intended use and device description clearly state its application in various surgical procedures for therapeutic purposes, such as coagulation, hemostasis, vaporization, excision, and ablation of tissues, specifically targeting various medical conditions and anatomical sites.
No.
The device description and intended use/indications for use solely describe therapeutic procedures (coagulation, hemostasis, vaporization, excision, incision, ablation, etc.) and do not mention any diagnostic functions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "Surgical Laser System" and mentions hardware components like "flashlamp technology." This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended uses clearly describe surgical procedures performed directly on the human body using laser energy for various therapeutic purposes (coagulation, vaporization, excision, incision, etc.). These are all in vivo applications.
- Device Description: The device is described as a "Surgical Laser System" used for "application of photocoagulation of soft tissue." This further reinforces its use in surgical procedures on living tissue.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
In summary, the device is a surgical laser system designed for direct application to the patient's body during various medical procedures, which is the definition of an in vivo device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Description of Submitted Device:
The Combination Nd:YAG and Solid State, (Frequency Doubled Nd:YAG) Surgical Laser System is an instrument used in the application of photocoagulation of soft tissue using a 532nm wavelength. The system has the ability to use a 1064nm wavelength for applications including; Coagulation, Vaporization, and Cutting. The system can run both wavelengths in "Captured Pulse" which delivers high energy at very short pulse durations. The laser light is "pumped" by flashlamp technology.
Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence:
The Coherent, VersaPulse uses O-switched frequency doubled, Q-switched Nd:YAG, and Q-switched Alexandrite: YAG laser energy to deliver 532nm, 1064nm and 755nm wavelengths. The VersaPulse delivers the same wavelength, similar average power, pulses of equivalent duration, and treatment spots of equivalent diameter. The indications for use are also similar.
TheThermolase Softlight Laser uses the identical wavelength. A Nd: YAG Rod, the output of which is 1064nm. The Softlight laser uses a carbon-based cream to aid in the removal of unwanted body hair and for skin resurfacing.Similar average power, pulses of equivalent duration, and treatment spots of equivalent diameter.
The Laserscope Orion Series Laser System offers the same 532/1064 capability and is capable of the pulsed power technology that we are offering.It is indicated in the treatment of dark ink tatoos. The laser delivers similar strength, similar average power, pulses of equivalent duration, and treatment spots of equivalent diameter. The "Starpulse" allows it to deliver high energy at short pulse durations.
The Cynosure PhotoGenica LPIR Laser uses a 755nm wavelength, obtained from a Flashlamp-Excited Solid State Pulsed Laser is indicated in the treatment of leg veins that are between 0.6 mm to 3.0 mm in size. The LPIR uses a HENE (CW) 543nm green aiming beam. Other areas of the PhotoGenica LPIR including; pulse duration, and treatment spots are equally similar.

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 Device Amendments, or to 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 II (Special Controls) or 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 the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
