Indications for Use
LIPOCONTROL is indicated for: Laser assisted lipolysis. LIPOCONTROL should be used to melt small amount of fat from small areas only such as chins or upper arms. LIPOCONTROL should not be used to melt larger volumes or areas of fat and on areas such as thighs, buttocks, or abdomen.
Device Story
LIPOCONTROL is a laser-assisted lipolysis system emitting 970nm coherent light (max 25W) via optical fiber. It incorporates a magnetic localization system (LipoBird) on the handpiece and a field transmitter to track cannula movement. The device displays a 2D energy deposition map on an integrated LCD touch screen. Safety features include power regulation based on cannula speed: if speed falls below a physician-defined limit, laser power is reduced to prevent local energy accumulation; if the cannula is outside the defined treatment area, power delivery stops. Used in clinical settings by physicians. Benefits include improved homogeneity of energy delivery, reduced risk of accidental laser use outside target areas, and better control over energy per surface area. The system includes power supplies, cooling via Peltier elements, and PC-controlled electronics for parameter adjustment.
Clinical Evidence
Feasibility study conducted on 4 subjects (2 chin, 2 upper arm). Primary endpoints included feasibility of defining ROI, tracking accuracy, and safety/efficacy assessment via questionnaires and side-effect monitoring. Results showed successful ROI definition, effective power regulation based on cannula speed, and no serious adverse events. Minor, transitional side effects (pain/heat) were reported. Subjects expressed satisfaction with the procedure and clinical results at 1-month follow-up.

#### 5.2 Device Description
The medical device LIPOCONTROL is based on the use of a laser module allowing the emission of a beam of coherent light at 970nm ±10nm at a maximum power of 25W. The laser module consists of laser diodes assembled in series and optically aligned in order to focus in an optical fibre of 200um or more. The optical fibre is screwed onto the SMA 905 connector of the laser module.
LipoControl contains a localisation system. This localisation system is based on a magnetic sensor (LipoBird), positioned on the handpiece and a field transmitter. With this localization system, an informative function and a safety function are built-in :
{1}------------------------------------------------
K090754 pg 2 of 4
- The informative function is a 2D map (display on the device screen) . which indicates the area where the energy is deposited and the total amount of energy delivered.
- The safety function is on the delivered power. Maximum output power . and output fiber speed displacement are chosen by physician and delivered when footswitch is pressed and the output fiber speed displacement is over the pre-defined limit. If it the output fiber speed displacement is below the pre-defined limit then the delivered power is diminished.
The 2D map can be displayed only if the treatment surfaces are inclined less than 35 decree relative to the observation plane defined by the user. The user can divide the treated area in adiacent areas with an andle less than 35 degree or use the device without these optional functions.
The LipoControl includes the power supplies necessary to supply the laser and to ensure its temperature control using Peltier elements built on a ventilated radiator.
In addition, the LIPOCONTROL includes the whole of electronics and the functions allowing the parameter setting of the laser and the safe functioning of the device. The adjustments of the parameters are done using a LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) screen and a touch screen controlled by a PC.
#### 5.3 Indications for use
LIPOCONTROL is indicated for: Laser assisted lipolysis.
LIPOCONTROL should be used to melt small amount of fat from small areas only such as chins or upper arms. LIPOCONTROL should not be used to melt larger volumes or areas of fat and on areas such as thighs, buttocks, or abdomen.
#### 5.4 Performance data - Bench Test
LIPOCONTROL applications conform to Guidance on the content and organization of a premarket notification for a medical laser (June 1995) and to Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices (May 2005).
Thus. LIPOCONTROL (with localization system) device conforms to safety and electromagnetic compliance standards:
- IEC 60601-1 (2005) Medical electrical equipment Part 1: General . requirements for basic safety and essential performance
- IEC 60601-2-22 (2007) Medical electrical equipment Part 2-22: . Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of surgical, cosmetic, therapeutic and diagnostic laser equipment
- IEC 60825-1 (2007) Safety of laser products Part 1: Equipment . classification and requirements
{2}------------------------------------------------
K090754 P830f4
- 21 CFR 1040.10 and 1040.11: Performance standards for light-. emitting products_(lasers products and specific purpose laser products)
- IEC 60601-1-2 (2007) Medical electrical equipment Part 1-2: . General requirements for basic safety and essential performance -Collateral standard: Electromagnetic compatibility - Requirements and tests
- FCC part 15 (2007) .
Accuracy of the localization system has been checked in normal conditions and in worst case situations (influence of electrical noise and of magnetic distorsion); it is in good agreement with theoretical accuracy claimed by the supplier of the localization module.
Accuracy of the energy mapping display has been checked according to internal specifications. It complies with the mathematical model of projection in 2D plan of 3D data and to the energy pattern defined by OSYRIS MEDICAL.
Power requlation according to the speed displacement has been checked. When the speed is below the set value, the power is regulated linearly depending on the speed. When the speed is above the set value, the power set is delivered.
Verification of the stop of power delivery if the probe is outside the screen has been checked.
#### 5.5 Performance data - Confirmatory Clinical Test
A feasibility study has been conducted on 4 subjects in order to demonstrate the feasibility and interest of using LIPOCONTROL with tracking system ability and energy mapping features on smaller treatment areas to melt small amount of fat.
Scope and duration:
In the study, 4 subjects were treated. 2 patients were treated on the chin, 2 patients on the upper arms using the Lipocontrol. 1 month follow up has been performed.
#### Measurements assessments:
Feasibility was assessed by validating that the investigator was able to define the ROI (region of interest) using the Lipocontrol, and by comparing the ROI recorded by the system to the one plotted on transparencies.
The interest of using Lipocontrol technology was assessed by reviewing the videos.
Safety and efficacy of the procedure were assessed using subjects questionnaires, and by evaluating side effects.
{3}------------------------------------------------
K690754 PJ840f4
Results:
The results show that the Lipocontrol can be used on chin and upper arms. The treatment area can be flat or curved with up to 35 degree angle.
The results show the interest of the Lipocontrol:
- The tracking function and the power regulation associated with . the canula tracking allow limiting the risk of accidental use of the laser, when the canula is not in the monitoring area.
- The power regulation allows having a better control of the . energy delivery, avoiding excess of energy in a single point when canula is static, and regulating the power proportionally to the speed of the canula when the canula is moving, allowing a better homogeneity of the energy delivered, and a reduction of undesired local energy accumulation.
- . The Lipocontrol allows applying a predefined value of energy per surface area, in each part of the tissue.
Safety and efficacy of the procedure were evaluated at 1 week follow up and at 1 month follow up:
- Subject recovery time was less than 1 week .
- Minor and transitional pain or heat sensation was observed. .
- No serious adverse event occurred during the study .
- Minor and transitional side effects occurred during the study. �
- On average, subjects are very satisfied with both the procedure . and the clinical result.
- > Performance data based on bench tests and on clinical tests demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of LIPOCONTROL for its intended use.
#### 5.6 Substantial equivalence
LIPOCONTROL has the same intended use, design and function as predicate devices PHARAON LIPO manufactured by OSYRIS and cleared under K073617.

Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
