Device Class
Class 2
Indications for Use
Chabner XRT™ Garments are intended to be used as an aid in the support of the patient during X-ray, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, radiotherapy, and other diagnostic radiological procedures. The Chabner XRT™ Garments are not intended for pediatric use.
Device Story
Chabner XRT™ Garments are non-sterile, wearable compression garments (brassiere, shorts, or girdle) designed to aid patient support and positioning during radiological procedures (X-ray, CT, MRI, radiotherapy). Constructed from radiotranslucent materials (<1 mm thick) without metal, the garments include clear thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) windows allowing clinicians to visualize index tattoos, midlines, and bony landmarks projected by machine light fields. The compressive nature and adjustment features assist in reproducing body geometry and patient-to-machine alignment. Used in clinical settings by healthcare providers, the garments provide the secondary benefit of protecting patient dignity and comfort during procedures. Radiation passes through the device without causing attenuation or bolus effects.
Indicated for adult patients requiring support and positioning during X-ray, CT, MRI, radiotherapy, and other diagnostic radiological procedures. Not indicated for pediatric use.
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.

# 6. Device Description
The device is a non-sterile garment worn by patients as an aid in the support and positioning of patients during X-ray, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, radiotherapy, and other diagnostic radiological procedures.
There are three versions of the garment: 1) brassiere; 2) athletic style shorts; and 3} girdle. All versions of the device are devoid of metal and can be worn for use with all treatment or diagnostic machines without causing a bolus (i.e., the materials do not mimic the properties of tissue during a radiological procedure) or attenuation effect. All materials used in the device's construction are < 1 mm in thickness.
Clear thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) windows are incorporated into the device to enable clinicians to view index tattoos, the midline, bony landmarks, and other treatment parameters, as created by the light field that is projected by the treatment or diagnostic machine onto the patient's body. The compressive nature of the materials used in the device's construction, along with various adjustment features incorporated into the device, assist the clinician in positioning the body and to reproduce the desired body geometry, treatment position, and patient-to-machine alignment prior to each radiological procedure. Radiation passes through the TPU material without affecting therapy or diagnosis.
Because the device is worn as a garment, they offer the added benefit of protecting the patient's dignity during such procedures that, in turn, increases the patient's overall comfort during the process.
- 7. Intended Use
Chabner XRT™ Garments are intended to be used as an aid in the support of the patient during X-ray, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, radiotherapy, and other diagnostic radiological procedures.
{2}------------------------------------------------
The Chabner XRT™ Garments are not intended for pediatric ,use.
# 8. Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence Evaluation
The Chabner XRT™ Garments are substantially equivalent in terms of intended use, operating principles, and operational specifications to CIVCO's MR Patient Positioning Devices (K111340) and Med-Tec. Inc.'s Moldcare Head and Neck Cushion (K982624) which are both legally marketable patient support and positioning aids classified by the agency as accessories to medical charged-particle radiation therapy systems. Like the CIVCO MR Patient Positioning Devices and Med-Tec. Inc. Moldcare Head and Neck Cushion, the Chabner XRT™ Garments are intended to be used as an aid in the support and positioning of patients during MR, radiological, and other procedures, are radiotranslucent, conform to the individual patient's body shape, and contact the body for less than a 24 hour period of time.

There are no significant differences between the Chabner XRT™ Garments and the predicate devices. However, they do differ from the predicate devices in that they are produced as wearable compression garments that have the added benefit of protecting patient dignity; whereas, the predicate devices are not worn on the body. This difference does not affect the device's safety and efficacy.
- 9. Substantial Equivalence Conclusion
The Chabner XRT™ Garments are substantially equivalent to the CIVCO MR Patient Positioning Devices and Med-Tec. Inc. Moldcare Head and Neck Cushion with respect to intended use, safety, and effectiveness.
