No
The device description explicitly states that the device "does not directly control energy delivered to the patient nor contain any software." Additionally, there are no mentions of AI, DNN, or ML, nor descriptions of training or test sets, which are typical for AI/ML-based devices. The device is described as a transducer, which is a hardware component for ultrasound imaging.
No
The device is described as being for "diagnostic imaging" and "ultrasound evaluation," which indicates diagnostic rather than therapeutic use. It does not directly control energy delivered to the patient or perform any treatment.
Yes
The device description states that the C1-6-D is "used for diagnostic imaging," and the intended use specifies "ultrasound evaluation" for various anatomical sites, which are all diagnostic activities.
No
The device description explicitly states that the device "does not directly control energy delivered to the patient nor contain any software." It is described as an ultrasound-imaging device (transducer) that is attached to a GE ultrasound imaging system, indicating it is a hardware component.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "ultrasound evaluation" of various anatomical sites. This is a diagnostic imaging procedure performed on the patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description confirms it's an "ultrasound-imaging device" that is "attached to a GE ultrasound imaging system and used for diagnostic imaging." This reinforces its role in generating images of internal structures.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are designed to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a patient's health. This device does not handle or analyze such specimens.
Therefore, the C1-6-D Transducer is a medical device used for diagnostic imaging in vivo (within the body), not an IVD.

Trade/Device Name: C1-6-D Diagnostic Ultrasound Transducer Regulation Number: 21 CFR 892.1570 Regulation Name: Diagnostic ultrasonic transducer Regulatory Class: II Product Code: ITX Dated: September 21, 2012 Received: September, 24, 2012
Dear Mr. Behn:
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 C1-6-D Diagnostic Ultrasound Transducer, as described in your premarket notification:
Transducer Model Number
C1-6-D
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 895. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
3
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 (QS) 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 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.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please go to http://www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/CentersOffices/CDRH/CDRHOffices/ucm115809.htm for the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to
