RAPID Strand ™ Rx is indicated for permanent interstitial implantation of selected localized tumors which are of low to moderate radiosensitivity. They may be used either as primary treatment (such as for prostate cancer or unresectable turnors) or for treatment of residual disease after excision of the primary tumor. RAPID Strand TM Rx may be indicated for use concurrent with or at the completion of other treatment modalities, such as external bear or adiation therapy or chemotherapy.

This Special 510(k) is for the addition of a loading services provider, addition of bone wax needle plugging material and removal of a seed design.

The Brachytherapy Source Device, with apparent activities between 0.19mCi and 1.01mCi, is indicated for permanent interstitial implantation of selected localized tumors which are of low to moderate radiosensitivity. They may be used either as primary treatment (such as for prostate cancer or unresectable tumors) or for treatment of residual disease after excision of the primary tumor. Seeds in this apparent activity range may be used to treat superficial, intra-abdominal, and intra-thoracic tumors. Tumors of the head, neck, lung, pancreas and prostate (early stages) are commonly treated. The Brachytherapy Source Device, with total apparent activities greater than 1.01mCi, is indicated for interstitial treatment of tumors which have the following characteristics; unresectable, localized, and moderate radiosensitivity. These seeds may be used for selected radiation applications as temporary implants. The Brachytherapy Source Device is indicated to treat residual tumors concurrent with or at the completion of other treatment modalities, such as external beam radiation therapy or chemotherapy. In addition, recurrent tumors may be implanted with seeds.

The Brachytherapy Source Device, Model 9011, is a welded titanium capsule containing Iodine-125 adsorbed onto a silver rod.
