FDA grants de novo clearance to AI Biomed, FluoOptics parathyroid tissue detection devices
The FDA today granted de novo clearance to parathyroid tissue detection devices from both Fluoptics and AI Biomed.
The systems are intended to provide the real-time location of parathyroid tissue during surgical procedures including thyroidectomy and parathyroidectomy, the federal watchdog said.
FluOptics won approval for its Fluobeam 800 clinic imaging device which can be used as a companion to assist in locating parathyroid tissue during surgery, the FDA said. Parathyroid tissue emits a fluorescent glow when exposed to the Fluobeam’s light source, which eliminates the need for a contrast agent.
