Intended Use
The TBI Stand is used to safely support and reposition a patient for radiation therapy treatment in the vertical (standing) position when a physician desires to treat the patient with whole body irradiation by high energy photons or electrons, usually from a medical electron accelerator. At times, the physician utilizes the optional Scatter Screen to increase the surface dose to the patient during photon treatment.
Device Story
TBI Stand is a mechanical support device for patients undergoing total body radiation therapy. It provides a vertical, standing platform to facilitate whole-body irradiation via medical electron accelerators. The device features adjustable components for head, shoulder, and arm positioning, along with hand grips and a film cassette holder. It includes an optional scatter screen to enhance surface dose during photon treatments. The device is used in a clinical radiation therapy setting, operated by medical staff to ensure patient stability and reproducible positioning during treatment. It benefits patients by providing a stable, adjustable structure for consistent radiation delivery.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Constructed from stainless steel, Delrin, acrylic, wood, and Formica. Mechanical support device; floor-standing unit. Features include adjustable head, shoulder, and arm supports, hand grips, film cassette holder, lung shield supports, and optional scatter screen. No energy source or software components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring total body radiation therapy in a vertical (standing) position. Used for support and repositioning during high-energy photon or electron irradiation. Optional scatter screen used to increase surface dose during photon treatment.
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. Mick:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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). 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 either class II (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic OS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Fedgral Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 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.
