## C. Description of Device
The updated ClearPoint Software Version 2.2 integrates the ClearPoint Neuro Maestro Brain Model software (K213645) into the previous ClearPoint Software Version 2.1 (K222519). The ClearPoint Maestro™ Brain Model product is a stand-alone software application for automatic labeling, visualization, and quantification of segmentable brain structures from a set of MRI images and has been incorporated into the ClearPoint System software. The ClearPoint System described in this submission is essentially identical from a technological standpoint to the cleared predicate device described in K222519 (ClearPoint System). As mentioned above, since the prior clearance, the company has integrated the Maestro Brain Model into the software of the predicate device. Specifically, the company has released an updated version of software 2.1, which was part of the last clearance, and has now been upgraded to software 2.2.
The ClearPoint System is comprised of a workstation laptop with software, the SMARTGrid™ MRI-Guided Planning Grid, the SMARTFrame™ MRI-Guided Trajectory Frame, the SMARTFrame™ Accessory Kit and the SMARTFrame™ Thumbwheel Extension. The SMARTGrid and associated Marking Tool are designed to assist the physician to precisely position the entry hole as called out in the trajectory planning software. The SMARTFrame is an Adjustable Trajectory Frame (ATF) that provides the guidance and fixation for neurosurgical tools. The MRI visible fluids of the Targeting Cannula along with the fiducial markers in the base of the frame allow for trajectory feedback when the physician views the MRI images, makes changes and confirms with subsequent MR images.
The ClearPoint System can be used with any MRI-compatible head fixation frame to immobilize the patient's head with respect to the scanner table, as well as with any imaging coil(s) (supplied by scanner manufacturers) that meet the physician's desired imaging quality. ClearPoint Neuro also supplies an optional head fixation frame that can be used with the ClearPoint System.
The ClearPoint Workstation includes the following:
- 1. ClearPoint Workstation Software (for trajectory planning and monitoring)
- 2. Laptop Computer
The hardware components of the current ClearPoint System are the SMARTFrame and Accessories. They are all single use devices that are provided sterile and include the following:
- 1. SMARTGrid MRI Planning Grid (interacts with the software to determine the desired location of the burr hole)

Each of the above packs is sold separately and is intended to be used with the ClearPoint Workstation. Each of the components has been described in detail in previous submissions. The ClearPoint System described in this 510(k) is a modification to the company's cleared ClearPoint System (K222519).
# D. Indications for Use
The ClearPoint System is intended to provide stereotactic guidance for the placement and operation of instruments or devices during planning and operation of neurological procedures within the MRI environment and in conjunction with MR imaging. During planning, the system is intended to provide functionality for the automatic identification, labeling, visualization and quantification of segmentable brain structures from a set of loaded MR images. The ClearPoint System is intended as an integral part of procedures that have traditionally used stereotactic methodology. These procedures include biopsies, catheter and electrode insertion including deep brain stimulation (DBS) lead placement. The System is intended for use only with 1.5 and 3.0 Tesla MRI scanners and MR conditional implants and devices.

## E. Comparison of Technological Characteristics
ClearPoint System (Software Version 2.2) is substantially equivalent to the previously cleared ClearPoint System (Software Version 2.1) (K222519). The subject device's hardware is identical in design and technological characteristics. The differences between the proposed and predicate devices are modifications to the software to include additional tunctionality that has been previously cleared in the ClearPoint Neuro Maestro 510(k) (K213645).
Both the proposed and predicate ClearPoint Systems are intended to provide stereotactic guidance for the placement and operation of instruments or devices during planning and operation of neurological procedures within the MRI environment and in conjunction with MR imaging. Specifically, the following modifications have been made in ClearPoint Software Version 2.2:
- . Integration of Maestro Brain Model functionalities:
- O Optional automatic segmentation of anatomical cortical and subcortical structures at user request.
- o Visualization of brain structure segmentations overlaid semi-transparently onto 2D views of any registered scan.
- Visualization of brain structure segmentations as polygon models embedded in the o scene in 3D views of any registered scan.
- o Computation of volume measurements corresponding to each segmented brain structure.
- O Workflow for verifying the brain structure segmentation results.
- o Summarizing brain structure volume measurements in a clinical procedure report.
- Full compatibility with Windows 11 Operating System ●
- Ability to load color DICOM images stored with RGB Photometric Interpretation. ●
- . Capabilities to display images in either Neurological or Radiological viewing orientation within the application viewports according to user preference.
- . Ability to express anatomical coordinate values and associated landmarks relative to an origin point at either the mid-commissure (MCP) point or posterior commissure (PC) point.
- A new set of measurement graphic tool improvements ●
- Some workflow-specific optimizations which provide more efficient and generalized software workflow.
- Translating the software user interface to support nine additional languages.
These modifications were made as part of continuous product improvement efforts. Specifically, the modifications allow for enhanced functionality and compatibility of the ClearPoint System. The inclusion of the Maestro Brain Model functionalities incorporates the functions of a standalone software product that has previously been subject of a cleared 510(k), (K213645). These changes have been verified and validated and do not raise any different questions of safety or effectiveness.

These changes to the ClearPoint System 2.1 Software have been validated and do not impact the safety or efficacy of the device. A substantial equivalence chart comparing the similarities and differences between the ClearPoint System and its predicate device is provided below. The primary differences between the proposed ClearPoint System 2.2 and the predicate are the incorporation of the functionality of an additional 510(k)-cleared device and additional minor differences in the technological characteristics between the Proposed device and the predicate do not raise different questions of safety or efficacy.
