Intended Use
The intended uses of the Biopsy M are mammographic procedures requiring stereotactic guidance, such as fine needle aspiration. needle biopsy and guide wire placement. The intended uses are identical to those of the predicate device.
Device Description
The Biopsy-M device uses two stereo images on a film to determine the location of a lesion in three dimensions. Once the coordinates of the lesion are determined by the Biopsy-M they are used to position a needle holder such that when the physician inserts the needle or guide-wire, the tip will be precisely positioned at the pre-determined coordinates.

No
The description focuses on using stereo images and geometric calculations to determine lesion location, with no mention of AI/ML terms or processes.

No.
The device is used for guidance in biopsy procedures, not for treating a disease or condition.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a guidance system for biopsy procedures, not for interpreting medical images or diagnosing conditions. It assists in precise needle placement based on pre-determined lesion coordinates.

No

The device description explicitly states it uses "two stereo images on a film" and is used to "position a needle holder". This indicates the device includes hardware components (film reader, needle holder positioning mechanism) in addition to any software used for coordinate determination.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Biopsy-M Function: The Biopsy-M device is used for guiding procedures (fine needle aspiration, needle biopsy, guide wire placement) within the body based on imaging. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.

The device's function is to assist in the localization and targeting of a lesion within the breast using mammographic images, which is an in vivo (within the living body) process.

Device Description

The Biopsy-M device uses two stereo images on a film to determine the location of a lesion in three dimensions. Once the coordinates of the lesion are determined by the Biopsy-M they are used to position a needle holder such that when the physician inserts the needle or guide-wire, the tip will be precisely positioned at the pre-determined coordinates.

The Biopsy-M works on the same principle as human binocular vision. Two images of the same object are taken with the x-ray source in two different positions. Objects between the source and film plane appear at a different location as the source is moved from position A to B as shown in the figure below. Since the geometry of the system is fixed, given the apparent position of the object in the two views, shown as C and D in the figure, the true position of the object can be calculated.

Mammography has been demonstrated to be the best imaging choice for screening of women for breast cancer by many studies and is currently recommended as a routine procedure for women over 50 years of age. Mammography, however, has been shown to have a high rate of false positive examinations. Stereotactic needle localization has been shown to be a minimally invasive procedure for obtaining the tissue samples needed determining the lesion type for a positive mammography examination. The procedure removes much less tissue than and produces much less scar tissue than conventional surgical biopsy.

Dear Mr. McCarthy:

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 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 requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) 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 reculatory action. In addition. FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Thease 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.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510%) 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.
