No
The description focuses on replacing a physical control console with a PC-based system and mentions "Record and Verify" communication, which are standard features in modern medical devices and do not inherently indicate AI/ML. There are no mentions of AI, ML, image processing, or data sets typically associated with AI/ML development.
Yes.
The device's intended use explicitly states "delivering the radiation in accordance with the selected relationship of the radiation to the patient (fixed or moving beam therapy, beam modifying device, etc.)", which describes therapeutic radiation delivery.
No
The device is described as delivering radiation for therapy, not for diagnosing conditions. Its function is to deliver an intended dose of radiation, indicating a treatment rather than a diagnostic purpose.
No
The device description clearly states it consists of hardware components such as a source head, collimator, gantry, main frame, base, controls, and a counterweight. While it includes a PC-based remote control console with software, it is not solely software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device used for delivering radiation therapy to a patient. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one. IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.
- Device Description: The description details components like a source head, collimator, gantry, etc., which are typical of radiation therapy equipment.
- Lack of IVD Indicators: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, performing tests on specimens, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory analysis.
Therefore, the Theratron Elite, as described, is a therapeutic device used for radiation treatment, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Theratron Elite consists of a source head, collimator, gantry, main frame, base, controls and a pendulum or beam-stopper style counterweight. The design of this device is similar to predicate devices Theratron 780E and 1000E. The key difference is that the 'push-button' style control console on the predicate devices has been replaced with a modern PC based remote control console with graphic user interface and 'Record and Verify' communication capability.

Dear Mr. Martell:
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 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 Good Manufacturing Practice for Medical Devices: General (GMP) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic GMP 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.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) 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.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4591 for Radiology devices, or 594-4613 for Ear, Nose and Throat devices.
