Intended Use
This product is intended to be used by radiologists and surgeons for the following: Patient positioning and immobilization Stereotactic diagnostic localization Patient positioning and immobilization device for stereotactic radiotherapy of extracranial targets
Device Story
BodyFIX System provides non-invasive patient positioning and immobilization for radiotherapy and surgical procedures. System components include vacuum cushions, cover sheets, carbon fiber baseplate, and BodyFIX Vacuum Pump P3. Vacuum pump inflates, forms, and deflates vacuum cushions to stabilize patient anatomy. Used in clinical settings (radiotherapy/surgery) by radiologists and surgeons. Device facilitates precise patient alignment for imaging (CT/MRI) and treatment delivery (photon linear accelerator). Immobilization reduces diaphragmatic movement and patient motion, improving targeting accuracy for extracranial therapeutic targets. Benefits include enhanced reproducibility of patient setup and reduced localization errors.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Bench testing only. Performance metrics reported include transversal plane CT localization error (mean 0.5 ±0.7 mm), longitudinal plane localization error (range 0.3 - 2.0 mm), and Linac set-up error (approx 1.0 mm).
Technological Characteristics
Carbon fiber sandwich construction with hard foam core. Vacuum-based immobilization principle. Includes vacuum pump (P3) with dual-pump configuration. Dimensions approx 600 x 988 x 510 mm. Power 1000 VA max. Operates on 100-240 V AC. Integrated stereotactic fiducials. Non-invasive fixation using vacuum cushions and plastic fixation sheets.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patient positioning and immobilization for stereotactic radiotherapy, radiosurgery, sonography, surgery/CAS, imaging, neurosurgery, and brachytherapy of extracranial targets. Applicable to thoracic, abdominal, pelvic, arm, and leg therapeutic targets.
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.

#### Dear Mr. Wolff:
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 class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of
{3}------------------------------------------------
medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820). This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809), please contact the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety at (301) 796-5450.
