Intended Use
The modified FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System Driver is intended to obtain soft tissue samples for diagnostic and histological analysis of breast abnormalities.
Device Story
Handheld, reusable, electro-mechanical vacuum-assisted breast biopsy driver; powered by rechargeable lithium-ion battery. Operates with FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System probe to collect soft tissue samples for diagnostic/histologic analysis. Used by clinicians in breast biopsy procedures. Software manages driver-probe alignment; updates allow recovery from non-clinically relevant errors and facilitate software updates via IR port. Output is tissue sample for pathology. Benefits include diagnostic tissue acquisition for breast abnormality assessment.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data presented.
Technological Characteristics
Electro-mechanical vacuum-assisted biopsy driver; rechargeable lithium-ion battery; handheld form factor. Software-controlled alignment and error recovery. IR port for software updates. Non-sterile.
Indications for Use
Indicated for obtaining tissue samples from the breast or axillary lymph nodes for diagnostic analysis of breast abnormalities and histologic examination, including partial or complete removal of imaged abnormalities. Not intended to predict the extent of removal of histologic malignancy based on mammographic appearance. Requires surgical examination of margins if samples are not histologically benign.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A gastroenterology-urology biopsy instrument is a device used to remove, by cutting or aspiration, a specimen of tissue for microscopic examination. This generic type of device includes the biopsy punch, gastrointestinal mechanical biopsy instrument, suction biopsy instrument, gastro-urology biopsy needle and needle set, and nonelectric biopsy forceps. This section does not apply to biopsy instruments that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.

#### Device Description:
The subject device, the modified FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System Driver, is a non-sterile, self-contained, handheld, reuseable, electro-mechanical vacuum-assisted breast biopsy device that utilizes a rechargeable lithium-ion battery. The driver is designed to operate safely when used with the FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System probe for diagnostic sampling of tissue during a breast biopsy procedure.
#### Intended Use of Device:
The modified FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System Driver is intended to obtain soft tissue samples for diagnostic and histological analysis of breast abnormalities.
#### Indications for Use of Device:
The FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System is indicated to obtain tissue samples from the breast or axillary lymph nodes for diagnostic analysis of breast abnormalities. The instrument is intended to provide breast tissue for histologic examination with partial or complete removal of the imaged abnormality.
The extent of histologic abnormality cannot be reliably determined from its mammographic appearance. Therefore, the extent of removal of the imaged evidence of an abnormality does not predict the extent of removal of a histologic abnormality (e.g., malignancy). When the sampled abnormality is not histologically benign, it is essential that the tissue margins be examined for completeness of removal using standard surgical procedures
#### Technological Comparison to Predicate Devices:
The modified FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System Driver is identical to the predicate devices in the following ways:
- . Intended Use
- . Indications for Use
- Target Population .
- Fundamental Scientific Technology .
- . Operating Principle
- Driver Mechanical Design .
- Performance Characteristics .
{2}------------------------------------------------
The subject device and the predicate device are different in the following way:
- . Software
- o Modifications to address errors resulting from out of alignment issues between driver and probe components. The software updates will allow the device to recover from non-clinically relevant errors and make the device easier to use.
- o Modification to allow use of the current IR port to update software
## Performance Data:
The Modified FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System Driver was evaluated via data collected from bench testing, and the data demonstrate that the Modified FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System Driver is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. The testing performed was that which was identified during the Risk Assessment and Design Failure Modes and Effects Analysis.
## Conclusions:
The Modified FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System Driver met all acceptance criteria for design verification and validation, as specified by applicable standards, guidance, test protocols and/or customer inputs. The modified FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System Driver is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device, the driver of the FINESSE™ Ultra Breast Biopsy System.
