Intended Use
The VuMax High Resolution Ultrasound System is intended to be used for visualization by ultrasound of the eye and orbit by A-scan and B-scan. It is not intended to be used for determining the nower of timabaned ocular lenses, but it is capable of making intra-ocular measurements. The VuMax ultrasound system is a multi-purpose computer-based ultrasonic diagnostic system for ophthalmic applications, intended to both visualize the interior of the eye by means of ultraseunded and to make measurements inside the eye. The VuMax 35 MHz transducer is for use with the VuMax ultrasound system. The VuMax 50 MHz transducer is for use with the Vumax ultrasound system.
Device Description
The VuMax High Resolution Ultrasound System is intended to be used for visualization by ultrasound of the eye and orbit by A-scan and B-scan. It is not intended to be used for determining the nower of timabaned ocular lenses, but it is capable of making intra-ocular measurements. The system is PC-based, and can be used with a 35 MHz transducer (standard) or a 50 MHz transducer (optional). Because of the higher frequency of the transducers, it is expected that its greatest field of application will be in visualizing the anterior segment, because the focus area is about 11 mm form the transducer plane. The system will visualize other parts of the eye, but the resolution is not as high. The VuMax is a conventional ophthalmic A and B-scan system using a motor-driven transducer and angle sensor for scanning. The A-scan is derived from the B-scan. There is a choice of transducer frequency of 35 MHz or 50 MHz. It uses a motor-driven 10 MHz transducer with an attached angle encoder. The system is PCbased, and the display is on the computer screen.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a conventional ultrasound system with standard A-scan and B-scan capabilities and makes no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No
The device is described as a diagnostic system for visualization and measurement, not for treatment.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The VuMax ultrasound system is a multi-purpose computer-based ultrasonic diagnostic system for ophthalmic applications".

No

The device description explicitly mentions hardware components such as transducers (35 MHz and 50 MHz), a motor-driven transducer, an angle sensor, and being PC-based, indicating it is not a software-only device.

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 VuMax High Resolution Ultrasound System uses ultrasound to visualize the eye and orbit and make measurements within the eye. This is an in vivo (within the living body) diagnostic imaging technique, not an in vitro test on a sample.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states visualization and measurement of the eye and orbit, not analysis of a biological sample.

Therefore, the VuMax High Resolution Ultrasound System falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not in vitro diagnostics.

(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.

Dear Mr. Myers:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

This determination of substantial equivalence applies to the following transducers intended for use with the VuMax, as described in your premarket notification:

Transducer Model Number

35 MHz transducer 50 MHz transducer

Image /page/2/Picture/12 description: The image shows a logo for the FDA Centennial, celebrating 1906-2006. The logo is circular with the text "FDA Centennial" in a stylized font. The letters "FDA" are large and bolded. The logo is surrounded by text that reads "Protecting and Promoting Your Health".

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act): 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This determination of substantial equivalence is granted on the condition that prior to shipping the first device, you submit a postclearance special report. This report should contain complete information, including acoustic output measurements based on production line devices, requested in Appendix G, (enclosed) of the Center's September 30, 1997 "Information for Manufacturers Seeking Marketing Clearance of Diagnostic Ultrasound Systems and Transducers." If the special report is incomplete or contains unacceptable values (e.g., acoustic output greater than approved levels), then the 510(k) clearance may not apply to the production units which as a result may be considered adulterated or misbranded.

The special report should reference the manufacturer's 510(k) number. It should be clearly and prominently marked "ADD-TO-FILE" and should be submitted in duplicate to:

Food and Drug Administration Center for Devices and Radiological Health Document Mail Center (HFZ-401) 9200 Corporate Boulevard Rockville, Maryland 20850

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus permits your device to proceed to market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.cov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html
