The summary describes a traditional radiation treatment planning system focused on geometric localization, beam shaping, and dose calculation, with no mention of AI/ML terms or methodologies.
No
The device is a treatment planning system that localizes lesions and designs radiation plans, but it does not directly deliver therapy or perform a therapeutic action itself. It is a tool for planning treatment.
No
Explanation: The device is a radiation treatment planning system that localizes lesions and designs treatment plans. It does not provide a diagnosis of a disease or condition.
No
The device description explicitly states that the XPlan-2 system "consists of treatment planning software, stereotactic hardware and extensive verification and quality assurance (QA) procedures". It also mentions a "new Radionics Head and Neck Localizer that is to be used with the XPlan-2", which is a hardware component.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that XPlan-2 is a "stereotactic LINAC-based radiation treatment planning system." It is used to localize lesions and plan radiation therapy treatments. This is a therapeutic planning function, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a "stereotactic radiation treatment planning system" and focuses on the software and hardware used for planning and delivering radiation.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to diagnose a disease, condition, or state of health. It takes existing diagnostic images (CT scans, angiographic film) and uses them for treatment planning.
- No Biological Samples: IVD devices typically involve testing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.). This device uses medical images.
In summary, XPlan-2 is a medical device used for planning radiation therapy, which is a treatment modality. It does not perform in vitro diagnostic testing.

Device Description
The XPlan-2 system is a stereotactic radiation treatment planning system. The XPlan-2 system, like the XPlan-1 system, consists of treatment planning software, stereotactic hardware and extensive verification and quality assurance (QA) procedures to ensure the proper system and patient setup and the proper radiation delivery. XPlan-2 radiation treatment plans are designed with stationary or "static" radiation beams. These beams can be shaped with a range of field shaping devices, such that the shape of the radiation beam conforms to the irregular shape of the lesion. The ability to shape the radiation beam enables the user to treat irregularly shaped lesions, maximizing the radiation dose to the lesion, while minimizing the radiation dose to the surrounding normal tissue and critical structures. This premarket notification is intended to describe those additional features or modifications that have been made to the XPlan System and the new Radionics Head and Neck Localizer that is to be used with the XPlan-2.
The XPlan-2 system is identical to the XPlan-1 system with the exception of the additional and modified features listed below:
- The optional use of the Joint Center for Radiation Therapy (JCRT) Primary Plus (+) Scatter Dose Model has been added.
- A Site-Specific CT Intensity option was added to the depth calculation to account for differences in the reported intensity between various CT scanners, by using a set of fit parameters which describe the CT intensity vs. electron density curve.
- Support for the export of ASCII files that are readable by the industry standard IMPAC Record and Verify system has been added.
- The Dose-Volume Histogram (DVH) Sampling Function has been modified from a spherical sampling plan to a more uniform sampling plan.
- The Surface Dose Calculation has been modified to update the surface dose display when the surface dose dial is changed.
- The Plan Manager Module has been added to enable the user to easily save, restore or delete filed patient plans and standard plans via a browser.
- The Patient Treatment Volume (PTV) and Digitally Reconstructed Radiograph (DRR) Modules have been modified to support Secondary Data Sets (e.g., MR or CT2).
- Support for the new Radionics Head and Neck Localizer (HNL) has also been added to the XPlan-2 System.

The HNL labeling contains instructions for use. The HNL Operator's Manual includes indications for use, cautions, warnings and user quality assurance procedures. This information promotes safe and effective use of the device.
Description of Device and Basis for Substantial Equivalence 9,3
The HNL system, addressed in the premarket notification, has the same intended use and technological characteristics as the commercially available Radionics Software Applications, Inc. GTC Relocatable Head Holder System and the LATL system. Like the GTC, the HNL is non-invasive, and allows repeat positioning for lower dose multiple fractionated radiosurgery treatments. Like the LATL, the HNL is used as a method for achieving target positioning at isocenter prior to patient treatment.

Dear Ms. MacDonald:
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, qood 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 (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.
