No
The 510(k) summary describes a radiation therapy system and its accessories, focusing on the physical delivery of radiation and modifications to indications for use and applicators. There is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.
Yes
The device is indicated for "radiation therapy treatments" and is explicitly described as delivering a "prescribed dose of radiation to the treatment margin or tumor bed," which are therapeutic actions.
No
The device is described as a radiation therapy system indicated for treating tumors, not for diagnosing them.
No
The device description clearly outlines hardware components such as an X-ray source, probe, spherical applicators, radiation shields, and interface adapters. It is a physical radiation therapy system, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "radiation therapy treatments" and "deliver a prescribed dose of radiation to the treatment margin or turnor bed during intracavity or intraoperative radiotherapy treatments." This describes a therapeutic device used to treat disease within the body, not a device used to examine specimens from the body to provide diagnostic information.
- Device Description: The description details a miniature X-ray source used to emit radiation for treatment. This aligns with a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition based on in vitro testing.
Therefore, the Photon Radiosurgery System (PRS) is a therapeutic device, not an IVD.

Device Description
The Photoelectron Corporation Photon Radiosurgery System (PRS) is a miniature, high-dose rate, low energy X-ray source that emits X-ray radiation from the tip of a 3 mm diameter probe. The original PRS Model was cleared for marketing in the 510(k) K964947. The PRS was subsequently modified and cleared for marketing in 510(k) K980526 (PRS400). The PRS was cleared by these 510(k)s for the irradiation of intracranial tumors.
Since the currently cleared PRS400 is restricted to treatment of intracranial tumors, Photoelectron Corporation is also proposing in this 510(k) to modify the PRS indications for use to permit use of the PRS to irradiate tumors other than at intracranial locations.
This 510(k) is also being submitted to add the use of PRS Spherical Applicators to the PRS System. The Spherical Applicators will permit the PRS to be used for intracavitary or intraoperative radiation therapy. In addition, two accessories for use with the Spherical Applicators are also being added to the PRS: the Radiation Shields, which protect surrounding tissue and/or organs from radiation, and the PRS Interface Adapters, which provide a means for connecting the PRS X-ray Source (XRS), and the Spherical Applicators to various commercially available surgical support systems for non-stereotactic applications.
