Intended Use
The UltraGuide USG 2000sa system is indicated for enhancing the ultrasonic image of an interventional needle or needle-like rigid device, such as a biopsy needle or an aspiration needle, and for predicting its future path. The enhancement and prediction are presented on a computer monitor screen which also shows the image of a B-scan (or similar display) of a medical ultrasound imaging system. The device is intended to be used in clinical applications and for anatomical structures where ultrasound is currently used for visualizing such procedures.
Device Description
The UltraGuide USG 2000sa provides visual enhancement of the interventional needle by overlaying the image of the insertion device and its predicted future path on the ultrasound scan image of the internal organs, all displayed on the monitor of a personal computer. The device uses magnetic transmitters and receivers, sold under the trade name "PC Birds," to determine the location and orientation of the interventional needle. These devices have been used on medical devices cleared by the FDA. The positions and orientations of the interventional device and the video of the US image, are transmitted to a Personal Computer, which makes the necessary calculations to provide the overlay of the video image and the interventional device.
More Information

No
The description focuses on magnetic tracking technology and calculations to overlay images, with no mention of AI or ML for image enhancement or prediction. The prediction of the future path appears to be based on the current position and orientation determined by the magnetic tracking, not learned patterns.

No
This device is an image enhancement system designed to improve the visualization of interventional needles during ultrasound-guided procedures; it is not directly involved in treating or diagnosing a disease or condition.

No

Explanation: The device enhances the visualization of an interventional needle during ultrasound-guided procedures and predicts its future path. It does not provide any diagnosis or interpret medical conditions; rather, it aids in performing a medical procedure.

No

The device description explicitly mentions the use of "magnetic transmitters and receivers, sold under the trade name 'PC Birds'," which are hardware components used to determine the location and orientation of the interventional needle. This indicates the device is not solely software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to enhance the visualization and predict the path of an interventional needle during ultrasound-guided procedures. This is a tool used during a medical procedure on a patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from a patient to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The device uses magnetic tracking and computer processing to overlay information onto an ultrasound image. It does not analyze biological samples or provide diagnostic information based on such analysis.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), diagnostic claims, or the use of reagents or assays typically associated with IVDs.

The device is clearly intended to be a medical device used to assist in interventional procedures, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

The USG 2000sa has undergone extensive bench tests for electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility. The major components (the computer, ultrasound system, and PC Birds) are all commercial devices with published environmental and physical specifications.
Since this system uses the same technology as the predicate device, a clinical test is not necessary.

§ 884.2225 Obstetric-gynecologic ultrasonic imager.

(a)
Identification. An obstetric-gynecologic ultrasonic imager is a device designed to transmit and receive ultrasonic energy into and from a female patient by pulsed echoscopy. This device is used to provide a visual representation of some physiological or artificial structure, or of a fetus, for diagnostic purposes during a limited period of time. This generic type of device may include the following: signal analysis and display equipment, electronic interfaces for other equipment, patient and equipment supports, coupling gel, and component parts. This generic type of device does not include devices used to monitor the changes in some physiological condition over long periods of time.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
