Intended Use

The TomoTherapy Treatment System is intended to be used as an integrated system for the planning and precise delivery of radiation therapy, stereotactic radiotherapy, or stereotactic radiosurgery to tumors or other targeted tissues while minimizing the delivery of radiation to vital healthy tissue. The megavoltage x-ray radiation is delivered in a rotational, nonrotational, modulated (IMRT), or non-modulated (non-IMRT/three dimensional conformal) format in accordance with the physician approved plan.

Device Story

TomoTherapy Treatment System integrates radiation therapy planning, dose calculation, and delivery. Device utilizes megavoltage CT imaging for IGRT functionality; delivers radiation via rotational (helical) or fixed beam methods. System is prescription-only; operated by clinical staff in radiation oncology settings. Device does not diagnose disease or recommend treatment regimens; imaging is not for diagnostic use. Physician approves treatment plan; system delivers radiation accordingly. Enhancements improve dose rate consistency compared to predicate. Benefits include precise radiation delivery to tumors while sparing healthy tissue.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Verification and validation tests, including imaging and radiation delivery functionality, confirmed performance within design specifications. No clinical tests were required.

Technological Characteristics

Integrated radiation therapy system; megavoltage x-ray source; helical/rotational and fixed beam delivery; megavoltage CT imaging for IGRT. Includes independent dose monitoring and interlock systems. Design, materials, and energy sources are substantially similar to predicate.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring radiation therapy, stereotactic radiotherapy, or stereotactic radiosurgery for tumors or other targeted tissues. Used for delivery of megavoltage x-ray radiation in rotational, non-rotational, modulated (IMRT), or non-modulated formats per physician-approved plan.

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.

The TomoTherapy Treatment System is a prescription device. It delivers radiation in accordance with a physician approved plan. The device does not diagnose disease, rccommend treatment regimens, or quantify treatment effectiveness. The megavoltage CT imaging functionality is not intended for diagnostic use. ## Intended Use: The TomoTherapy Treatment System is intended to be used as an integrated system for the planning and precise delivery of radiation therapy, stereotactic radiotherapy, or stereotactic radiosurgery to tumors or other targeted tissues while minimizing the delivery of radiation to vital healthy tissue. The megavoltage x-ray radiation is delivered in a rotational, nonrotational, modulated (IMRT), or non-modulated (non-IMRT/three dimensional conformal) format in accordance with the physician approved plan. {1}------------------------------------------------ #### Technological Characteristics: The technological characteristics of the TomoTherapy Treatment System are substantially equivalent to the predicate. The TomoTherapy Treatment System consists of the same primary subassemblies, is comparable in key safety and effectiveness features, utilizes substantially similar design, construction, materials, energies, and it has an intended use that is identical to that of the predicate device. It is important to note that while this addition addresses consistency of dose output, the operation of the independent dose monitoring/interlock system is completely unchanged. Therefore the dose monitoring/interlocks operation is identical to pre-existing functionality and performance limits. Enhancements to the radiation delivery system improve the consistency of the dose rate of the TomoTherapy Treatment System in comparison to the predicate device. This does not alter the performance claims for the product. These technological enhancements do not raise new type of safety or effectiveness questions. ### Performance Data: The TomoTherapy Treatment System was tested and demonstrated to conform to the requirements of applicable recognized consensus standards for medical devices. Results of verification and validation tests, including extensive tests of imaging and radiation delivery functionality, confirm the TomoTherapy Treatment System performance is within design specifications. No clinical tests were required to establish substantial equivalence. These performance data demonstrate the TomoTherapy Treatment System is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the predicate device. #### Summary: The TomoTherapy Treatment System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. The intended use, major technological characteristics, and principles of operation of the TomoTherapy Treatment System are identical to those of the predicate device. Minor technological differences do not raise new types of safety or effectiveness questions. Performance data demonstrate the TomoTherapy Treatment System is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the predicate device. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
