The summary describes a standard intravascular ultrasound catheter and its components. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any advanced image processing that would suggest the use of such technologies. The performance studies focus on physical integrity, functionality, acoustic output, and in-vivo characteristics, not on algorithmic performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML.
No
The device is described as an "imaging catheter" intended for "intravascular ultrasound examination" and explicitly states it is for "imaging" and "diagnosis", not for therapy.
Yes
Explanation: The device is intended for "intravascular ultrasound examination of peripheral vessels," which is a diagnostic procedure to visualize the internal structure of blood vessels.
No
The device description clearly details a physical catheter with a transducer, drive cable, and connector, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "intravascular ultrasound examination of peripheral vessels only." This is a procedure performed within the body (in vivo) to visualize structures, not a test performed on samples taken from the body (in vitro).
- Device Description: The description details a catheter with an ultrasonic transducer designed to be inserted into blood vessels. This is consistent with an in-vivo imaging device.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), reagents, or any other components typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.
The device is an intravascular ultrasound imaging catheter, which is a type of medical device used for diagnostic imaging within the body.

Device Description
The Atlantis™ 018 Peripheral Imaging Catheter is a sterile, single patient use 40MHz transducer imaging catheter, intended for intravascular ultrasound examination of peripheral vessels. This imaging catheter is designed to be operated with Boston Scientific Corporation (BSC) Intravascular Ultrasound (IVUS) Systems: iLab™ (K072517), Galaxy2/Galaxy (K980851), and Clearview™M Ultra (K921750).
The Atlantis™ 018 Peripheral Imaging Catheter consists of two main assemblies:
- . Imaging core
- . Catheter body
The catheter body comprises three sections:
- . Distal lumen
- . Proximal single lumen
- . Telescoping section
The distal lumen and proximal single lumen sections compose the "working length" of the catheter, and the telescoping section remains outside of the guiding catheter and/or introducer sheath. The telescoping shaft section allows the imaging core to be advanced and retracted for 15 cm of linear movement. The corresponding movement of the transducer occurs from the proximal end of the wire exit port to the proximal end of the distal lumen.
The imaging core is composed of a hi-torque, flexible, rotating drive cable with a radial looking 40 MHz ultrasonic transducer at the distal tip. An electro-mechanical connector interface at the proximal end makes the connection to the BSC IVUS System Motor Drive Unit (MDU).
