Intended Use
The system is intended for use by a qualified physician for diagnostic ultrasound imaging of the human body in Peripheral Vascular vessels. The UNEXEF38G ultrasound instrument is intended to perform the following diagnostic ultrasound investigations: Imaging (A/B-Mode), Color Flow Doppler (CFD), and provides calculations of Flow mediated dilation measurements during reactive hyperemia.
Device Description
The UNEXEF-38G Ultrasound System is a portable, software controlled ultrasound system used to acquire and display high resolution, real-time ultrasound data in a variety of modes and clinical settings. This system is s Track 3 device that employs an ultrasound probe consisting of ultrasonic transducers arranged in a comb, whereby ultrasound can be generated by supplying electric pulse signals to a group of transducers consisting of multiple adjacent transducers in the single probe.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related concepts, and the device description focuses on standard ultrasound technology.

No
The device is described as a diagnostic ultrasound imaging system, acquiring and displaying real-time ultrasound data for diagnostic investigations, with no mention of treating or preventing diseases.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The system is intended for use by a qualified physician for diagnostic ultrasound imaging of the human body..." and "The UNEXEF38G ultrasound instrument is intended to perform the following diagnostic ultrasound investigations." This directly indicates its diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "software controlled ultrasound system" and mentions an "ultrasound probe consisting of ultrasonic transducers," indicating the presence of hardware components beyond just software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "diagnostic ultrasound imaging of the human body in Peripheral Vascular vessels." This describes an in-vivo (within the living body) diagnostic procedure, not an in-vitro (outside the living body) diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The description details an ultrasound system that acquires and displays real-time ultrasound data from within the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (like blood, urine, tissue) or performing tests on biological specimens outside of the body, which are hallmarks of IVD devices.

Therefore, the UNEXEF-38G Ultrasound System is an in-vivo diagnostic imaging device, not an in-vitro diagnostic device.

§ 892.1550 Ultrasonic pulsed doppler imaging system.

(a)
Identification. An ultrasonic pulsed doppler imaging system is a device that combines the features of continuous wave doppler-effect technology with pulsed-echo effect technology and is intended to determine stationary body tissue characteristics, such as depth or location of tissue interfaces or dynamic tissue characteristics such as velocity of blood or tissue motion. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. Blakely:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
