Intended Use

The Acuity Radiation Therapy Simulator is to be used in radiation therapy simulation, using a fluoroscopic and/or radiographic x-ray system for visualizing the volume to be exposed during radiation therapy and confirming the position and size of the therapeutic irridation field to be applied. The Acuity ConeBeam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is intended to assist the Radiation Oncologist in acquiring 3D "multislice" planning data in patient set-ups for the purpose of radiation therapy treatment planning and patient positioning.

Device Story

Acuity with CBCT is a radiation therapy simulator; integrates conventional fluoroscopic/radiographic simulation with CBCT imaging. Device acquires 3D multislice planning data (approx. 340 0.5mm slices) via single gantry rotation (15-17cm volume). Operated by radiation oncologists/technicians in clinical settings. Input: X-ray projections during gantry rotation. Transformation: Reconstruction of volumetric CT data from projections. Output: Digital 3D images displayed on computer screen; integrated into Vision Image database. Clinical utility: Enables treatment planning and patient positioning without moving patient from treatment position; provides CT-like planning data when conventional CT is unavailable.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Device tested for compliance with 21 CFR 1020.30 (Diagnostic x-ray systems) and 21 CFR 1020.33 (Computed tomography equipment). No clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

Stationary X-ray system; integrates fluoroscopic/radiographic and CBCT modes. CBCT reconstruction capability: 15-17cm volumetric data per rotation. Connectivity: Integrates with Vision Image database. Standards: Tested per 21 CFR 1020.30 and 1020.33.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing radiation therapy simulation requiring visualization of treatment volumes and confirmation of therapeutic irradiation field size and position, and for patients requiring 3D multislice planning data for treatment planning and positioning where conventional CT is not possible.

Regulatory Classification

Name of the Device: Trade/Proprietary Name: Common or Usual Name: Classification Name: Acuity with Conebeam Computed Tomography Acuity with Conebeam Computed Tomography Acuity CBCT Stationary x-ray system 21 CFR §892.1680 Class II Product Code: KPR ## 3. Predicate Devices to claim substantial equivalence: - a. Acuity Radiation Therapy Simulator, K023052 - b. Ximatron Scanvision, K981056 - 4. Description of the Device: Acuity with ConeBeam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is intended to assist the Radiation Oncologist in acquiring 3D multislice planning data in patient set-ups where conventional (Computerized Tomography) CT imaging is not possible. CBCT is a new feature to the Varian Medical Systems Radiation Therapy Simulator, "Acuity" (K023052), and acquires CT slice information as digital images from the Acuity simulator. The images can be viewed and manipulated directly on a computer screen and placed into the Vision Image database for the purpose of radiation therapy treatment planning and patient positioning. CBCT provides Acuity the capability of acquiring and reconstructing 15-17cm of volumetric data in one gantry rotation. This represents approximately 340 0.5mm slices. Acuity combines conventional and CT simulation into one product. Acuity can change from radiographic and fluoroscopic mode for isocenter localization to CT acquisition mode for treatment planning. This is accomplished with no movement of the patient from the actual treatment position. {1}------------------------------------------------ - 5. Intended Use Statement: The Acuity Radiation Therapy Simulator is to be used in radiation therapy simulation, using a fluoroscopic and/or radiographic x-ray system for visualizing the volume to be exposed during radiation therapy and confirming the position and size of the therapeutic irridation field to be applied. The Acuity ConeBeam Computed Tomography (CBCT) is intended to assist the Radiation Oncologist in acquiring 3D "multislice" planning data in patient set-ups for the purpose of radiation therapy treatment planning and patient positioning. - 6. Summary of the Technological Characteristics: the Acuity Radiation Therapy Simulator, K023052 has been modified to include Conebeam Computerized Tomography as a new feature. This new feature will allow the Acuity Radiation Therapy Simulator to acquire 3D multi-slice planning data in patient set-ups for the purpose of radiation therapy treatment planning and patient positioning which is substantially equivalent to the Varian Medical Systems Scanvision device, K981056. The substantial equivalence comparison chart provides a comparison of the technological charactcristics to those of the predicate devices. The chart is located in Tab G. - 7. Performance Standards Acuity with Conebeam Computed Tomography was tested in accordance with 21 CFR&1020 - Performance standards for ionizing radiation emitting products. Specifically §1020.30 - Diagnostic x-ray systems and their major components and §1020.33 - Computed tomography (CT) equipment. The results of the tests demonstrated that the Acuity CBCT met the performance standards requirements. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
