*Federal Register* notice: FDA is classifying the autofluorescence detection device for general surgery and dermatological use into Class 2 (special controls). The action is based on an AiBiomed de novo classification request for its Parathyroid Detection (Model PTeye) System. The agency has named the classification “autofluorescence detection device for general surgery and dermatological use,” and identified it as an adjunct tool that uses autofluorescence to detect tissues or structures, noting that such devices are not intended to provide a diagnosis.
