Intended Use
The AccuLeaf is intended to assist the radiation oncologist in the delivery of radiation to well defined target volumes while sparing surrounding normal tissue and critical organs from excess radiation. The AccuLeaf enables irregular fields treatments to be performed with finely shaped patterns. In this application the AccuLeaf performs the same function as customized beam shaping blocks, and circular or cut blocks collimators, which have been used for many years
Device Story
AccuLeaf is a LINAC-based Micro-Multi-Leaf-Collimator (MMLC) used in conformal stereotactic radiotherapy and radiosurgery. System components include MMLC module, LINAC interface module, workstation (with AccuLeaf-CS software), and distribution module. Device operates in conjunction with a LINAC, treatment couch, and data files containing aperture parameters. Radiation oncologists use the system to shape the LINAC beam to match tumor geometry, replacing traditional customized beam shaping blocks or circular/cut block collimators. By enabling finely shaped radiation fields, the device allows for targeted dose delivery to tumors while sparing surrounding normal tissue and critical organs.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; substantial equivalence is based on bench testing and performance validation.
Technological Characteristics
LINAC-based MMLC system. Components: MMLC module, LINAC interface, workstation, distribution module. Complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-1, IEC 60601-1-2, and IEC 60601-1-4 standards. Operates as an accessory to a linear accelerator for beam shaping.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring radiation therapy, including conformal stereotactic radiotherapy and radiosurgery, where precise beam shaping is required to target tumor volumes while sparing surrounding healthy tissue and critical organs.
Regulatory Classification
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.

### Predicate Devices:
> BrainLAB Med. GmbH's Micro-Multi Leaf Collimator (K970586)
#### Performance Standards:
No performance standards have been established for such device under Section 514 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. However, AccuLeaf complies with the following voluntary standards: IEC 60601-1 (1990) +A1 (1993) +A2 (1995); IEC 60601-1-1 (2000); IEC 60601-1-2 (1993); IEC 60601-1-4 (2000).
### Intended Use:
The AccuLeaf is intended to assist the radiation oncologist in the delivery of radiation to well defined target volumes while sparing surrounding normal tissue and critical organs from excess radiation.
The AccuLeaf enables irregular fields treatments to be performed with finely shaped patterns. In this application the AccuLeaf performs the same function as customized beam shaping blocks, and circular or cut blocks collimators, which have been used for many years
#### Device Description:
AccuLeaf is a LINAC based Micro-Multi-Leaf-Collimator (MMLC), used during both conformal stereotactic radiotherapy and conformal stereotactic radiosurgery. It enables shaping the LINAC beam according to tumor shape and clinical demands. The device is composed of the MMLC module, the LINAC interface module, the Workstation (with AccuLeaf-CS), and the Distribution module. The device is operated in conjunction with a LINAC, its treatment couch, a data file that contains the desired aperture parameters, and any additional equipment required during radiotherapy/ radiosurgery.
#### Substantial Equivalence:
Based on validations and performance testing results, Direx Systems Corp. believes that AccuLeaf is substantially equivalent to the predicate device cited above without raising new safety and/or effectiveness issues.

Dear Ms. Gershtein:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
