Intended Use

AccuSoft is intended to be used for the computation, display, evaluation, and output documentation of radiation dose estimations that are to be submitted for independent clinical review and verification by a physicist or physician prior to use. The application provides output data in the form of displays or hardcopy printouts to guide a physician in selecting the optimum patient treatment plan. It is intended to provide a report to be used by a competent health professional such as a radiation oncologist, medical physicist, radiation therapist or dosimetrist.

Device Story

AccuSoft is a radiation treatment planning software system; executes algorithmic approaches to produce radiation dose estimations. Inputs include patient image data for localization and delineation; supports static radiation beams shaped via Micro-Multi-Leaf Collimator (MMLC) to conform to irregular lesion shapes. Outputs consist of displays or hardcopy reports documenting dose estimations. Used in clinical settings by radiation oncologists, medical physicists, therapists, or dosimetrists to guide selection of optimum treatment plans. Benefits include maximizing radiation dose to lesions while minimizing dose to surrounding normal tissue and critical structures. Requires independent clinical review and verification by physicist or physician prior to use.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence supported by validation and performance testing results.

Technological Characteristics

Software-based radiation treatment planning system. Features static beam planning and MMLC shaping. Complies with IEC 601-1-4 (Programmable electrical medical systems) and EN 1441 (Risk analysis).

Indications for Use

Indicated for radiation treatment planning in patients requiring radiation therapy. Used by radiation oncologists, medical physicists, radiation therapists, or dosimetrists to compute, display, and evaluate radiation dose estimations for treatment planning. No specific patient age or gender contraindications stated.

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.

IEC 601-1-4, Medical electrical equipment - Part 1:General requirements for safety - 4. Collateral Standard: Programmable electrical medical systems." FDA/CDRH/ODE Draft Document - Guidance for Off-the-Shelf Software Use in Medical Devices (June 4, 1997). EN 1441 (1997) - Medical Devices: Risk analysis; Collateral Standard: Programmable electrical medical systems and IEC 60812 (1985) - Failure Mode and Effects Analysis. #### Intended Use: AccuSoft is intended to be used for the computation, display, evaluation, and output documentation of radiation dose estimations that are to be submitted for independent clinical review and verification by a physicist or physician prior to use. The application provides output data in the form of displays or hardcopy printouts to guide a physician in selecting the optimum patient treatment plan. It is intended to provide a report to be used by a competent health professional such as a radiation oncologist, medical physicist, radiation therapist or dosimetrist. #### Device Description: AccuSoft is a radiation treatment planning system. It consists of a software package that executes accepted algorithmic approaches to produce radiation dose estimations and of extensive verification and quality assurance (QA) procedures to enable the proper system and patient setup and adequate radiation delivery. It includes the same image acquisition, localizing, delineation and beam planning techniques. AccuSoft is designed with stationary or "static" radiation beams. These beams can be shaped with a shaping device, a Micro-Multi-Leaf Collimator (MMLC), such that the shape of the radiation beam conforms to the irregular shape of the lesion. The ability to shape the radiation beam enables the user to treat irregularly shaped lesions, maximizing the radiation dose to the lesion, while minimizing the radiation dose to the surrounding normal tissue and critical structures. #### Substantial Equivalence: Based on validations and performance testing results, Direx Systems Corp. believes that AccuSoft is substantially equivalent to the predicate device cited above without raising new safety and/or effectiveness issues. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the seal of the Department of Health & Human Services USA.
