The summary describes a hardware device (Multi-Leaf Collimator) and associated software for coordinating its settings with a linear accelerator. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies. The software's function is described as coordinating settings and ensuring correct configuration, not learning or adapting based on data.
Yes
The device is described as assisting in the delivery of radiation to treat well-defined target volumes, which is a therapeutic intervention.
No
The MMLC is described as a device that shapes the x-ray beam for radiation delivery and coordinates settings with a linear accelerator, which are functions related to treatment delivery rather than diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly states the MMLC is a "complete system consisting of an independent device that attaches to a Siemens linear accelerator (LINAC)" and mentions "Radionics MMLC interface hardware (BCI box)". While software modifications are the subject of the submission, the device itself is a hardware component with associated 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.
- Device Function: The MMLC is a device that attaches to a linear accelerator (LINAC) and is used to shape the radiation beam during cancer treatment. It directly interacts with the patient's body during therapy, not with samples taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for assisting in the delivery of radiation to target volumes within the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description details its function as a beam-shaping device for a LINAC.
The MMLC is a therapeutic device used in radiation oncology, not a diagnostic device that analyzes biological samples.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The MMLC is intended to assist the radiation oncologist team in the delivery of radiation to well defined target volumes while sparing surrounding normal tissue and critical organs from excess radiation. This is accomplished through 31 pairs of opposing tungsten leaves, which allow the MMLC to shape the x-ray beam according to a treatment plan generated by a planning system such as the RSA XPlan software.
The MMLC is intended to assist the radiation oncologist team in the delivery of radiation to well defined target volumes while sparing surrounding normal tissue and critical organs from excess radiation. With Radionics' XPlan Conformal Treatment Planning Software or any treatment planning system, the MMLC enables static conformal treatments to be performed with finely shaped field patterns. In this application, the MMLC performs the same function as customized beam shaping blocks, and circular or cut block collimators, which have been used for many years.

Device Description
The Mini Multi-Leaf Collimator (MMLC) is a complete system consisting of an independent device that attaches to a Siemens linear accelerator (LINAC) for small field conformal radiosurgery or radiotherapy. Along with XPlan Conformal Treatment Planning Software, the MMLC enables static conformal treatments to be performed with finely shaped field patterns created by independently actuated leaves.
The subject of this submission, the software modifications for the MMLC VR1, is for use in an installation of a Siemens LINAC with the Lantis Verify and Record system and the PrimeView front end. This program coordinates MMLC settings with the Siemens software and hardware and assures that the MMLC is set correctly to the same field as the LINAC setting, and can abort treatment if the MMLC cannot be set correctly.

§ 892.5050 Medical charged-particle radiation therapy system.
(a)
Identification. A medical charged-particle radiation therapy system is a device that produces by acceleration high energy charged particles (e.g., electrons and protons) intended for use in radiation therapy. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, treatment planning computer programs, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II. When intended for use as a quality control system, the film dosimetry system (film scanning system) included as an accessory to the device described in paragraph (a) of this section, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.
