Intended Use
The Optical Tracking System (OTS) with Surface Matching Module is a graphical planning tool that allows for pre-operative and operative planning of cranial and spinal surgical procedures. The OTS with Surface Matching Module is indicated for use in cranial and spinal surgical procedures in which anatomical landmarks are not clearly visible or where a desired target is close to critical structures.
Device Description
The OTS with Surface Matching Module is a graphical planning tool that allows for preoperative and operative planning of cranial and spinal surgical procedures. The Surface Matching Module offers an alternate method of registering the patient to their scans. The OTS with Surface Matching Module, addressed in this premarket notification, has the same intended use and technological characteristics as the commercially available OTS, and Stealth Station Image-Guided Surgery System with SurfaceMerge registration option. Like the commercially available OTS, the OTS with Surface Matching Module offers the following functionality: - Ability to plan frameless stereotactic surgical procedures from scanned images; - Ability to plan stereotactic procedures performed with a Radionics CRW framed . system; - . Display of image slices in 3D reconstructed space; - Ability to display probe tip position in 2D and 3D displays; - Ability to display "real-time" position of the probe in 2D image space; - Ability to reconstruct oblique slices; - . Use of Pointer (probe) as a Mouse to operate program.
More Information

No
The document describes a graphical planning tool for surgical procedures with a "Surface Matching Module" for patient registration. While it uses scanned images and involves image processing for registration, there is no mention of AI, ML, deep learning, or any related concepts in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The description focuses on traditional image-guided surgery functionalities and compares the device to predicate devices with similar features.

No
The device is described as a "graphical planning tool" that assists in pre-operative and operative planning of surgical procedures, displaying information, and tracking probe position. It does not directly interact with or treat the patient's condition.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a "graphical planning tool" for surgical procedures and an "Image-Guided Surgery System." It assists in planning and navigation during surgery but does not provide a diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "graphical planning tool" and mentions the use of a "Pointer (probe)" which is a hardware component used for tracking position. It also refers to "Optical Tracking System" which implies hardware for optical tracking. While it has software components, it is not solely software.

Based on the provided information, this 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. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states that the device is a "graphical planning tool" used for "pre-operative and operative planning of cranial and spinal surgical procedures." It uses scanned images (like CT or MRI) and helps guide surgical instruments in real-time.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological samples from the patient. Its function is based on processing and displaying medical images and tracking the position of surgical tools relative to the patient's anatomy as depicted in those images.

Therefore, the device falls under the category of a surgical planning and navigation system, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Cromwick:

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 legally marketed predicate 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 requirements, 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.
