The SuperSonic Imagine AIXPLORER® Ultrasound System is indicated for use in the following applications: Abdominal, Small organs, Musculoskelatal, Superficial Musculoskeletal, Vascular, Intraoperative, OB-GYN, Pelvic, Pediatric, Urology, Trans-rectal, Trans-vaginal and Neonatal/adult Cephalic. The system also provides the ability to measure anatomical structures (Abdominal, Small Organs, Musculoskeletal, Superficial Musculosketal, Peripheral Vascular, Intraoperative, GYN, Pelvic, Pediatric, Urology, Trans-rectal, Neonatal/ Adult Cephalic, Fetal/Obstetrics).
Device Description
The SuperSonic Imagine AIXPLORER® system is a cart based ultrasound imaging system used to perform non-invasive diagnostic general purpose ultrasound imaging studies. The system contains a scan converter and can be coupled to a variety of linear, curved, micro-convex, and motorized linear and phased array transducers to produce images, which are displayed on a LCD monitor. An adjustable control panel with integrated touch screen allows the user to perform an ultrasound exam quickly and efficiently in accordance with ALARA principles. The system also allows the user to perform measurements, capture images to digital memory or to an external device (such as a printer), and review diagnostic studies in the form of a report. The system functions in a manner identical to the predicate devices and transducers for the imaging modes: B-Mode, M-mode, Color Flow, Pulsed Wave Doppler, Harmonic Imaging, Amplitude Doppler, 3D imaging and for ShearWave™ elastography.
More Information

None

Unknown
The device name "AIXPLORER" suggests potential AI integration, but the provided summary does not explicitly mention AI, ML, or related technologies in the device description or performance studies. The description focuses on standard ultrasound functionalities and comparisons to predicate devices without AI/ML features.

No.
The device is described as an "ultrasound imaging system used to perform non-invasive diagnostic general purpose ultrasound imaging studies," indicating it is used for diagnosis, not therapy.

Yes

The "Device Description" explicitly states, "The SuperSonic Imagine AIXPLORER® system is a cart based ultrasound imaging system used to perform non-invasive diagnostic general purpose ultrasound imaging studies."

No

The device description clearly states it is a "cart based ultrasound imaging system" and includes hardware components such as a scan converter, transducers, LCD monitor, and control panel.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use clearly states that the system is for "non-invasive diagnostic general purpose ultrasound imaging studies" and lists various anatomical sites for imaging. This describes a device used to visualize internal structures of the body, not to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.) outside of the body.
  • Device Description: The description details an ultrasound imaging system that produces images displayed on a monitor. This aligns with in vivo imaging, not in vitro testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any processes typically associated with in vitro diagnostics.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on specimens taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This ultrasound system performs imaging of the human body.
