Overview
AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026
The PET-Dose is a Radionuclide Dose Calibrator, a Class II medical device designed to measure radioactivity in radionuclide samples. It falls under the FDA’s product code KPT and is classified under the Radiology specialty. This device quantifies administered doses of radiopharmaceuticals, ensuring accurate administration in positron emission tomography (PET) procedures and other nuclear medicine applications. Its primary function is to verify dose accuracy for user-defined geometries, including syringe samples.
The PET-Dose is supplied as a reusable device and is intended for use in radiology settings, including nuclear medicine departments. It operates under standard environmental conditions and does not require sterile packaging. The device is FDA-cleared through a Traditional 510(k) pathway, with clearance granted on November 22, 2004, following a 49-day review by the Radiology (RA) Advisory Committee. No specific MRI safety classification is stated in the regulatory records.
Questions
AI-generated answers, 1 Oct 2026
What is the PET-Dose Radionuclide Dose Calibrator used for?
The PET-Dose is designed to measure radioactivity in radionuclide samples, specifically quantifying administered doses of radiopharmaceuticals.
