K970464 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the P REFERENCE TPS (TREATMENT PLANNING SOFTWARE) 1.1. Classified as Accelerator, Linear, Medical (product code IYE), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Northwest Medical Physics Equipment, Inc. (Lynnwood, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on September 5, 1997 after a review of 210 days - an extended review cycle.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.5050 - 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. Standard predicate reliance. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Radiology review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
