Intended Use

The AG Thermographic Camera(Model no.: ATIR M301) is intended to use as an adjunct to other clinical diagnostic procedures by quantifying differences in skin surface temperature changes. It can visualize and digitalize body surface temperature distribution and temperature changes. The device is intended for use by qualified healthcare personnel trained in its use.

Device Description

The AG Thermographic Camera (Model no.: ATIR-M301) consists of an infrared camera, accessories, and PC visualization/analysis software. It is a non-contact, non-invasive, and non-radiating infrared system capable of imaging and storing thermal patterns generated by the human body. It employs passive infrared emission sensing technology to capture the thermal data and uses proprietary software to display the temperature distribution pattern as an image.

§ 884.2980 Telethermographic system.

(a)
Telethermographic system intended for adjunctive diagnostic screening for detection of breast cancer or other uses —(1)Identification. A telethermographic system for adjunctive diagnostic screening for detection of breast cancer or other uses is an electrically powered device with a detector that is intended to measure, without touching the patient's skin, the self-emanating infrared radiation that reveals the temperature variations of the surface of the body. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(2)
Classification. Class I (general controls).(b)
Telethermographic system intended for use alone in diagnostic screening for detection of breast cancer or other uses —(1)Identification. A telethermographic system for use as the sole diagnostic screening tool for detection of breast cancer or other uses is an electrically powered device with a detector that is intended to measure, without touching the patient's skin, the self-emanating infrared radiation that reveals the temperature variations of the surface of the body. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(2)
Classification. Class III.(3)
Date PMA or notice of completion of a PDP is required. As of the enactment date of the amendments, May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the act is required before the device described in paragraph (b)(1) may be commercially distributed. See § 884.3.
