| Device Class | Class 2 |
Intended Use
The device is indicated for use in obtaining biopsies from soft tissues such as liver, kidney, prostate, spleen, lymph nodes and various soft tissue tumors. It is not intended for use in bone. The device is also indicated to provide breast tissue samples for diagnostic sampling of breast abnormalities. It is designed 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.
Device Story
CASSI II Rotational Core Biopsy System is a biopsy instrument for soft tissue and breast abnormalities. System components include a control unit handle, valve block, battery, cryogen, biopsy needle (CASSI QuadPoint), and sample collection tray. Operation involves a sticking needle that uses cold temperatures at its tip to engage target tissue; a coaxially mounted cutting cannula/piston assembly then cores the tissue specimen. Used by clinicians in a clinical setting to obtain tissue for histologic examination. Provides diagnostic samples; assists in partial or complete removal of imaged abnormalities. Benefits include precise tissue acquisition for pathology.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided; submission relies on substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device.
Technological Characteristics
System includes control unit handle, valve block, battery, cryogen, and biopsy needle (sticking needle and cutting cannula/piston). Employs cryo-assisted tissue engagement and mechanical rotational coring. No software or electronic algorithm described.
Indications for Use
Indicated for obtaining soft tissue biopsies (liver, kidney, prostate, spleen, lymph nodes, tumors) and diagnostic breast tissue sampling. Not for use in bone. Contraindicated for cases where complete removal of malignancy cannot be confirmed by imaging alone.
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.

## Indications for Use
510(k) Number (if known):
Device Name:
CASSI™ II Rotational Core Biopsy System with the CASSI QuadPoint™ Disposable
Indications For Use:
The device is indicated for use in obtaining biopsies from soft tissues such as liver, kidney, prostate, spleen, lymph nodes and various soft tissue tumors. It is not intended for use in bone.
The device is also indicated to provide breast tissue samples for diagnostic sampling of breast abnormalities. It is designed 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.q., 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.
