Intended Use
The POD B-Scan is intended to be used for visualization by ultrasound of the eye and orbit by A-scan and B-scan. The POD B-Scan System is a multi-purpose computer-based ultrasound diagnostic system for ophthalmic applications, intended to both visualize the interior of the eye by means of ultrasound and to make measurements inside the eye.
Device Description
The POD B-Scan is intended to be used for visualization by ultrasound of the eve and orbit by A-scan and B-scan. The system is PC-based, and can be used with 35 MHz or 50MHz transducers. 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 from the transducer plane. The system can visualize other parts of the eye. Summary of the reaconventional 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 PC-based, and the display is on the computer screen.

No
The description focuses on conventional ultrasound technology and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No
The device is described as a diagnostic system for visualization and measurement within the eye, not for treating any conditions.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "a multi-purpose computer-based ultrasound diagnostic system for ophthalmic applications."

No

The device description explicitly mentions transducers, a motor-driven transducer, and a PC-based system, indicating the presence of hardware components beyond just software.

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 POD B-Scan is an ultrasound system used for visualization and measurement within the eye and orbit. It uses ultrasound waves to create images and take measurements in vivo (within the living body).
  • Lack of Sample Analysis: The description does not mention the analysis of any biological samples taken from the patient.

Therefore, the POD B-Scan 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.

Dear Mr. Devine:

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 deviness 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 POD B-Scan, as described in your premarket notification:

Transducer Model Number

35 MHz 50 MHz

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 futbor announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Page 2 - Mr. Devine

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 (OS) 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 he 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,
