Intended Use
The Hitachi Aloka Medical. Ltd. UST-5310 / UST-5311 transducers for use with the PROSOUND ALPHA6 Diagnostic Citrasound scanner are intended for use by trained personnel (doctor, sonographer, etc.) for the diagnostic ultrassund evaluation during Intra-operative and Intra-operative (neurosurgery) procedures. The device is not indicated for Ophthalmic applications.
Device Description
Linear Array transducer
More Information

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and describes the technology as "the same essential technology for imaging, Doppler functions, and signal processing" as the predicate devices. There is no mention of AI/ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No
The device is described as being for "diagnostic ultrasound evaluation," which is used for diagnosis, not therapy.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "for the diagnostic ultrasound evaluation".

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Linear Array transducer," which is a hardware component of an ultrasound system. The summary also mentions testing for acoustic output, biocompatibility, electrical and mechanical safety, all of which are related to hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The description clearly states this device is a transducer for a diagnostic ultrasound scanner. Ultrasound works by sending sound waves into the body and receiving the echoes to create images. This is an in vivo (within the living body) imaging technique, not an in vitro test on a sample.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "diagnostic ultrasound evaluation during Intra-operative and Intra-operative (neurosurgery) procedures." This involves imaging structures directly within the body during surgery.

Therefore, the Hitachi Aloka Medical. Ltd. UST-5310 / UST-5311 transducers are diagnostic imaging devices, not IVDs.

Dear Ms. Van Arsdale:

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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.

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); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); 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.
