    Intended Use

    The ART Breast Brachytherapy Applicator is a rigid applicator intended for use with Nucletron remote afterloading equipment for non-invasive brachytherapy. The applicator provides a means of positioning the HDR source near the breast to deliver radiation dose to the underlying tissue in areas of intact skin.

    Device Description

    The Advanced Radiation Therapy (ART) Breast Brachytherapy Applicator is a rigid applicator used for non-invasive HDR treatment of the breast. The applicator is designed to be positioned external to the breast to receive the HDR afterloader source via catheter lumens. The position and placement of the applicator is verified by means of radiographic images and the travel distance of the HDR source in the lumens is determined radiographically by using the check cable of the afterloader equipment. With the applicator properly immobilized on the breast surface, the HDR treatment process can begin according to established protocols.

    AI/ML Overview

    The ART Breast Brachytherapy Applicator is a passive device, and therefore, no performance testing was required or conducted. The 510(k) summary states, "The Advanced Radiation Therapy Breast Brachytherapy Applicator is a passive device. Performance testing was not required."
