No
The description focuses on standard ultrasound technology and image processing for bladder volume calculation, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms.
No
The device is used to measure bladder volume and obtain images, which are diagnostic functions, not therapeutic.
Yes
The device diagnoses the bladder volume, which is a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "portable ultrasound system" that "transmits ultrasound signals" and "receives the echoed signals," indicating the presence of hardware components beyond just software. It also mentions a "built-in thermal printer."
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The BioCon-500 is an ultrasound device that directly interacts with the patient's body (transmitting and receiving ultrasound signals through the abdomen) to obtain images and calculate bladder volume. It does not analyze samples like blood, urine, or tissue.
- The intended use and device description clearly state it's a non-invasive ultrasound device for imaging and measuring bladder volume. This is a diagnostic imaging procedure performed on the patient, not an in vitro test.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the BioCon-500 falls under the category of a medical imaging device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The BioCon-500 is a B-mode pulsed-echo ultrasound device. The BioCon-500 is intended to project ultrasound energy through the abdomen of the patient to obtain images of the bladder and to calculate the bladder volume non-invasively using these images. Contraindications for the BioCon-500 are fetal use and use on pregnant patients.

Device Description
The BioCon-500™ is a portable ultrasound system for measuring the urine volume in a patient. BioCon-500™ transmits ultrasound signals to the abdomen of a patient and receives the echoed signals. Using the echoed signals the system detects the bladder outlines and calculates the volume in bladder outlines.
BioCon-500™ has a Pre-Scan function, which shows the ultrasound images for a horizontal plane consisted of the echoed signals. The Pre-Scan function helps a user locate the bladder easily and get more accurate results.
A user can print the results using a built-in thermal printer after measurements right away.
Also using the optional CubeScanPC software you can upload the saved data in a device's flash ROM to a computer for reviewing the scan results.

§ 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. Mouser:
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 Diagnostic Ultrasound Systems and Accessories / CUBEscan BioCon-500, as described in your premarket notification:
· Transducer Model Number
Ultrasound Probe of BioCon-500
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.
