## Subject Device Description:
Confocal Miniprobes™ are used with Cellvizio® 100 series (F800) system, which is a confocal imaging system with fiber optic probes which allows visualization of internal microstructure of tissues and blood flow including, but not limited to, the identification of cells, vessels and their orqanization or architecture, during endoscopic and laparoscopic surgical procedures, including robot-assisted procedures.
To achieve this function, the Cellvizio® 100 series system F800 with its Confocal Miniprobes™ has been designed:
- . To excite fluorescent components within the human tissue with the laser light emitted by the Cellvizio® at 785nm.
- To receive fluorescence signal emitted from tissue microstructures within the spectral detection . bandwidth of the Cellvizio® 800-905 nm.
ICG absorbs light in the near-infrared (NIR) region within a range of 780 nm to 805 nm with a peak absorption of 805 nm and emits fluorescence within a range of 810 nm to 850 nm with a peak emission of 820 nm (cf. ICG labeling).
Therefore, the Cellvizio® 100 series system F800 can excite ICG circulating in the vascular and lymphatic systems and image signal emitted by ICG in these two systems.
Pafolacianine absorbs light in the near-infrared (NIR) region within a range of 760 nm to 785 nm with a peak absorption of 776 nm and emits fluorescence within a range of 790 nm to 815 nm with a peak emission of 796 nm (cf. Pafolacianine Sodium labeling).
Therefore, the Cellvizio® 100 series F800 model can:
- A excite ICG in the vascular system or the Ivmphatic system and image signal emitted by ICG in the vascular system or the lymphatic system after ICG has been administered to the patient according to its approved labeling.
- A excite pafolacianine or tissues that have taken up pafolacianine and image signal emitted by pafolacianine or tissues that have taken up pafolacianine after pafolacianine has been administered to the patient according to its approved labeling.

No change is being made in terms of design, fundamental technology, and operating principle of the previously cleared CholangioFlex™, AQ-Flex™ 19, CystoFlex™ F, and UroFlex™ B Confocal Miniprobes™ (cleared via K172844 and K183640). The commercial name of these Confocal Miniprobes™ has been changed when they are used with a Cellvizio 100 Series F800 model. Indications for use of the CholangioFlex™ -C, AQ-Flex™ 19 -C, CystoFlex™ F-C, and UroFlex™ B-C Confocal Miniprobes™ are the same as the reference device (K191144).
The subject device, the Cellvizio® 100 (F800) series with its Confocal Miniprobes™ and the reference device, the Cellvizio® 100 (F400) series with its Confocal Miniprobes™ (cleared via K191144) are similar as they have the identical indications for use, material, design, fundamental technology, and operating principle.
## Performance Testing - Bench Completed:
Bench testing has been performed to validate the capability of the Cellvizio® 100 series F800 model with Confocal Miniprobes™ to image ICG and pafolacianine. These tests consisted of the following:
- In vitro imaging of ICG with different concentrations,
In vitro imaging of pafolacianine with different concentrations,
- In vitro imaging of human cervical carcinoma cell line with known overexpression of FRa, stained with different concentrations of pafolacianine.
These tests showed that the Cellvizio 100 series F800 model with Confocal Miniprobes™ is capable of imaging ICG at different concentrations and pafolacianine-labeled cells.
## Performance Testing - Animal Completed:
The objective of this animal study was to assess the capability of the Cellvizio® 100 series F800 model with its Confocal Miniprobes™, also called Confocal Laser Endomicroscopy (CLE), to image cells targeted by pafolacianine sodium in tumor cell culture, and in tumor-bearing mice in vivo.
This animal study demonstrated that Cellvizio® 100 series F800 model with its Confocal Miniprobes™ can provide high quality images at microscopic level, in real-time, pafolacianine sodium targeted cells and tissues. Endomicroscopic images demonstrated adequate resolution and sensitivity to identify different cell types in different tissues and visualize distinct cell architectures based on pafolacianine sodium biodistribution in the tumor and normal organs.
### Performance Testing - Clinical:
Five (5) studies have been reported on the use of the Cellvizio® 100 series F800 confocal laser endomicroscopy for tissue characterization using ICG as a contrast agent.
All studies reported clear visualization of the cellular cytoarchitecture with the Cellvizio® 100 series F800 after intravenous injection of ICG in different tissues, such as the brain, liver, peritoneum, lymph node, diaphragm, colon, stomach, and adrenal gland.
### Summary:
The subject device, the Cellvizio® 100 series F800 model with Confocal Miniprobes™ and the predicate device Medtronic VS3-785 nm Iridium System (K210265) have the same intended use and the same operating procedure and are made of the same, main components (optical fibers and optical lenses) that allow imaging of tissues, the vascular system or the lymphatic system.
{8}------------------------------------------------
The subject device, the Cellvizio® 100 series F800 model with Confocal Miniprobes™ and the predicate device Medtronic VS3-785 nm Iridium System (K210265) are comparable when used in conjunction with ICG or pafolacianine as:
- A The concentration, rate of administration, or route of administration for the use of ICG or pafolacianine are the same for both devices and as those described in the approved labeling of the contrast agents.
- A Body systems imaged with the Cellvizio® 100 series F800 model and the predicate device in conjunction with pafolacianine (tissues that have taken up pafolacianine) and ICG (vascular system or lymphatic system) are the same as those described in the approved labeling of the contrast agent, pafolacianine and ICG.
- A The patient population for which the subject device will be used is the same as the predicate, the VS3 Iridium System. Indeed, the predicate system is used to perform intraoperative fluorescence imaging of tissues that have taken up the drug. The subject device is used to perform fluorescence imaging of tissues that have taken up the drug during endoscopic, laparoscopic surgical, and surgical procedures.
- A The imaging modality performed by both the predicate and the subject devices is comparable. Both devices achieve fluorescence imaging by:
- を exciting fluorescent components within the human tissue that have taken up pafolacianine with the laser light emitted at 785nm
- ゃ receiving fluorescence signal emitted from tissues that have taken up pafolacianine within the spectral detection bandwidth (800-850 nm for the VS3 Iridium System and 800-905 nm for the Cellvizio®).
In both cases. ICG and Pafolacianine are administered to the patient according to their approved labeling, excitation light is shown onto the tissue and emitted fluorescent light is used to observe the blood flow in vascular areas or visualize the lymphatic system for ICG (depending on the route of administration or ICG), or perform fluorescence imaging of tissues that have taken up the Pafolacianine. While the systems have specific technological differences, they each have the functions for viewing and recording fluorescent images. The technological differences do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness.
Both devices use ICG and Pafolacianine as contrast agents to perform fluorescent imaging without changes to the formulation, mode of action, approved dose or route of administration.
ICG and Pafolacianine are used in an identical manner for both devices.
Additionally, the Confocal Miniprobes™ of the subject device have technical characteristics (maximum field of view, depth of observation, lateral resolution) as Confocal Miniprobes™ of the reference device.
The subject device, the Cellvizio® 100 (F800) series system with Confocal Miniprobes™ and the reference device, Cellvizio® 100 (F400) series system with Confocal Miniprobes™ (cleared via K191144), have the same indications for use. The resolution and optical characteristics of the Confocal Miniprobes™ on both the reference and subject devices are identical.
Therefore, Mauna Kea respectfully asserts that the Cellvizio® 100 series system with its Confocal Miniprobes™ described in this submission is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the VS3-785 nm Iridium System (K210265) and is identical to the previously cleared Cellvizio® 100 Series system with Confocal Miniprobes reference device (cleared via K191144).
Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
