Device Class
Class 2
Intended Use
The Endomag Magseed® Magnetic Marker is indicated for use to radiographically mark soft tissue during a surgical procedure or for future surgical procedures.
Device Story
Magseed Magnetic Marker is an implantable tissue marker placed percutaneously into soft tissue using ultrasound or radiographic guidance. It marks sites intended for surgical removal. The marker is localized post-placement using imaging guidance or the Endomag Sentimag System (non-imaging magnetic guidance). The Sentimag probe detects the marker up to 3cm away; tissue compression may be used to enhance detection. The marker is surgically removed along with the target tissue. Used in clinical settings by surgeons to facilitate precise excision of marked tissue, potentially improving surgical outcomes by ensuring accurate site identification.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Pre-clinical evaluation included biological safety testing and simulated use testing to characterize performance.
Technological Characteristics
Implantable tissue marker. Visible under ultrasound and radiographic imaging. Detectable via magnetic sensing (Sentimag system). Differences from predicates include specific marker material, dimensions, and surface finish.
Indications for Use
Indicated for radiographic marking of soft tissue during or prior to surgical procedures. Applicable to patients requiring tissue site localization for surgical removal.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An implantable clip is a clip-like device intended to connect internal tissues to aid healing. It is not absorbable.

Dear Dr. Shawcross:
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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you; however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
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.
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 Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set

#### 5.3 PREDICATE DEVICES
- 1. Carbon Medical Technolgies, Inc. BiomarC Gold Tissue Marker (K070436).
- Sentimag System, Sentimark (Magseed) Magnetic Marker System (K153044 & 2. K163541)
#### DESCRIPTION OF DEVICE 5.4
The Endomaq Maqseed® Magnetic Marker is intended for use as a tissue marker. The marker is visible under ultrasound and radiographic imaging. It is indicated for use to radiographically mark soft tissue during a surgical procedure or for future surgical procedures.
The Magseed Magnetic Marker is placed percutaneously into the tissue, using imaging guidance such as ultrasound or radiography, to mark a site that is for example intended for surgical removal. The Magseed Magnetic Marker is subsequently localized by using imaging quidance (such as ultrasound or radiography) or aided by non-imaging quidance (Endomag Sentimag® System, K153044 and K163541). The marker can be detected up to 3cm from the Sentimag® probe. The surgeon may use compression of the tissue with the probe to improve detection. The marker is located and surgically removed with the target tissue.
#### 5.5 INTENDED USE
The Endomaq Maqseed® Magnetic Marker is indicated for use to radiographically mark soft tissue during a surgical procedure or for future surgical procedures.
#### 5.6 SUMMARY OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Endomagnetics has performed a comparison of the technological characteristics of the Magseed Magnetic Marker with those of the predicate device. Three differences in the technological characteristics (marker material, dimensions and surface finish) have been identified. Evaluation of the differences has determined that there are no new questions of safety or effectiveness.
#### 5.7 DISCUSSION OF NON-CLINICAL TESTS SUBMITTED
Testing was conducted to evaluate and characterize the safety and performance of the Magseed Magnetic Marker. Pre-clinical testing included:
- Biological Evaluation .
- Simulated Use
#### CONCLUSION 5.8
The Magseed Magnetic Marker has the same Intended Use as the predicate device. The different technological characteristics do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. The test data presented in this submission demonstrate substantial equivalence of the Magseed Magnetic Marker with the predicate device.
