Intended Use
The device is indicated for use as an adjunct to mammography for B-mode ultrasonic imaging of a patient's breast when used with an automatic scanning linear array transducer.
Device Description
The ABUS system, with automated ultrasound im-aging of the breast, gives the radiologist a cost effective solution for reviewing the ultrasound images with the corresponding mammogram. The FFBU Diagnostic Ultrasound System modification represents limited hardware and software changes to the Sponsor's predicate device.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, deep learning, or any related terms, nor does it describe any features or processes that are characteristic of AI/ML applications in medical imaging (e.g., automated detection, classification, or quantitative analysis based on learned patterns). The changes are described as "limited hardware and software changes" to a predicate device.

No.
The device is used for imaging (diagnosis) and does not directly treat or alleviate a medical condition.

Yes
Explanation: The device is described as an "adjunct to mammography for B-mode ultrasonic imaging... for reviewing the ultrasound images with the corresponding mammogram," which directly indicates its use in diagnosing breast conditions alongside mammography. The term "Diagnostic Ultrasound System" further reinforces this.

No

The device description explicitly mentions "limited hardware and software changes," indicating it is not solely software. It also describes a "system" that includes an "automatic scanning linear array transducer," which is a hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states the device is for B-mode ultrasonic imaging of a patient's breast. This is an in vivo imaging technique, meaning it is performed directly on the living body, not on a sample taken from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for imaging the breast as an adjunct to mammography, which is also an in vivo imaging technique.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is the breast, which is part of the living body.

Therefore, the device falls under the category of medical imaging devices rather than in vitro diagnostics.

§ 892.1560 Ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system.

(a)
Identification. An ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system is a device intended to project a pulsed sound beam into body tissue to determine the depth or location of the tissue interfaces and to measure the duration of an acoustic pulse from the transmitter to the tissue interface and back to the receiver. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A biopsy needle guide kit intended for use with an ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.
