Intended Use
Intended for use by or on the order of a qualified physician for analysis of ultrasound imaging of the human heart. Cardiac (adult and pediatric) applications using B-mode (including harmonic) imaging are supported. The system provides image data analysis applications that supply information on cardiac structure and motion.
Device Description
The Echolnsight™ software system enables the production and visualization of 2D tissue motion measurements (including tissue velocities, strain rates) and cardiac structural measurement information derived from tracking speckle in tissue regions visualized in any Bmode (including harmonic) imagery loops as captured by most commercial ultrasound systems. The Echolnsight™ software system has been designed to ingest and process ultrasound imagery stored in files with content organized and encoded in conformance to the following the following standards: - NEMA PS3 (3.3, 3.5, 3.6, 3.10): Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine . (DICOM), 2008. - ISO/IEC 10918-1:1994-02: Information technology Digital compression and coding of . continuous-tone still images – Requirements and guidelines (JPEG standard), 1994. - ISO/IEC 15444-1:2004: Information technology JPEG 2000 image coding system: . Core coding system, 2004.
More Information

No
The summary describes image processing techniques ("tracking speckle in tissue regions") but does not mention AI, ML, or related terms like neural networks or deep learning. The lack of information on training or test sets further suggests the absence of ML.

No
The device is a software system for analyzing ultrasound images, providing information on cardiac structure and motion, not a device that directly treats or diagnoses a medical condition.

Yes
The device is described as providing "image data analysis applications that supply information on cardiac structure and motion," which is used by a "qualified physician for analysis of ultrasound imaging of the human heart." This analysis of diagnostic images to provide information about the heart's structure and motion makes it a diagnostic device.

Yes

The device is described as a "software system" that "enables the production and visualization of 2D tissue motion measurements" from ultrasound imagery. It processes existing image data and does not include any hardware components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).

Here's why:

  • IVDs analyze biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a patient's health. This device analyzes ultrasound images, which are generated externally and represent physical structures, not biological samples.
  • The intended use clearly states analysis of "ultrasound imaging of the human heart." This focuses on image processing and interpretation, not laboratory testing of biological materials.
  • The device description details the processing of image data (DICOM, JPEG standards). This further reinforces its function as an image analysis tool.

Therefore, while this device is a medical device used for diagnosis, it falls under the category of imaging analysis software rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 892.2050 Medical image management and processing system.

(a)
Identification. A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.(b)

Intended Uses:

EchoInsight™ is intended for use by or on the order of a qualified physician for analysis of ultrasound imaging of the human heart. Cardiac (adult and pediatric) applications using B-mode (including harmonic) imaging are supported. The system provides image data analysis applications that supply information on cardiac structure and motion.

Technological Comparison to Predicate Devices:

EchoInsight™ is substantially equivalent to the Siemens VVI product already cleared for introduction into interstate commerce as part of K091286, syngo US Workplace. The new and predicate devices both provide methods for determination of tissue motion, strain, and strain rate for cardiac structures based on speckle tracking techniques. The new and predicate devices provide similar image and information visualization capabilities. Both utilize B-mode ultrasound imagery from other vendor as well as same vendor ultrasound scanning devices as input.

Dear Mr. Kortesoja:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA), 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. 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 Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of
