No
The provided 510(k) summary does not contain any mention of AI, ML, deep learning, or related terms, nor does it describe features or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML-powered devices (e.g., training/test sets, AUC, sensitivity/specificity of an algorithm). The description focuses on the imaging modalities and intended use for detecting and assessing lipid-core plaques and general intravascular pathology.

No
The device is an imaging system intended for diagnostic purposes (detection of plaques, assessment of lipid core burden, and examination of intravascular pathology) but not for treating or preventing a disease.

Yes
The device is described as being intended for the "detection of lipid-core-containing plaques of interest" and "assessment of coronary artery lipid core burden," which are diagnostic activities. It also performs "ultrasound examination of coronary intravascular pathology."

No

The device description is not available, but the intended use clearly states it is an "Imaging System" and utilizes "near-infrared examination" and "ultrasound examination." These modalities inherently require hardware components (probes, sensors, etc.) to acquire the imaging data, making it a hardware-based system with likely integrated software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are performed outside the body.
  • Device Function: The TVC Imaging System™ is described as performing near-infrared and ultrasound examinations of coronary arteries in patients. This involves imaging the arteries within the patient's body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for examining coronary arteries in patients undergoing invasive procedures. This is an in vivo (within the living body) procedure, not an in vitro procedure.

Therefore, the TVC Imaging System™ is an in vivo imaging device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Steven J. Chartier:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of November 24, 2014.

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

1

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.
