Device comprises a head frame and semi-circular arc (190 mm radius). It uses Cartesian (x, y, z) coordinates to triangulate brain targets. Fiducial markers are registered to intracranial images (CT, MR, X-ray) or brain atlases. Used in access-controlled healthcare facilities by neurosurgeons. Provides support/guidance for surgical instruments (biopsy needles, electrodes, etc.) to reach targets. X-ray accessories (fiducial box, table fixations) enable target localization during angiography. System ensures mechanical accuracy of 0.9 mm. Benefits include precise, minimally invasive access to intracranial targets for therapeutic or diagnostic interventions. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical or animal testing performed. Substantial equivalence established via bench testing, including design verification, usability validation, and biocompatibility assessment of new X-ray accessories. Performance data demonstrates the device is as safe and effective as the predicate devices. ## Technological Characteristics Mechanical stereotactic instrument; 190 mm arc radius; Cartesian coordinate system. Materials assessed per ISO 10993-1. Includes head frame, fixation pins, and X-ray fiducial accessories. Imaging compatibility: CT, MR, X-ray. Mechanical accuracy: 0.9 mm. No electronic or software-based sensing/actuation; purely mechanical guidance system. ## Regulatory Identification A stereotaxic instrument is a device consisting of a rigid frame with a calibrated guide mechanism for precisely positioning probes or other devices within a patient's brain, spinal cord, or other part of the nervous system. ## Predicate Devices - Leksell® Vantage Stereotactic System ([K190887](/device/K190887.md)) - Leksell® Stereotactic System ([K152558](/device/K152558.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. U.S. Food & Drug Administration 10903 New Hampshire Avenue Silver Spring, MD 20993 www.fda.gov {1} K261932 - Jesper Bruske Page 2 Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
