K882449 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the CESIUM 137 SOURCE, MODEL CSM-40. Classified as Source, Isotope, Sealed, Gold, Titanium, Platinum (product code IWI), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Cis-Us, Inc. (Bedford, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 14, 1989 after a review of 304 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.5730 - the FDA radiology and imaging software oversight framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Radiology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
