Intended Use
For ACUSON NX3 The ACUSON NX3 ultrasound imaging system, is intended for the following applications: Fetal, Abdominal (including liver), Pediatric, Small Parts(Small Organ), Transcranial, OB/GYN, Pelvic, Neonatal, Cardiac, Vascular(including Peripheral Vessel), Musculoskeletal, Superficial Musculoskeletal and Urology applications. The systems also provide for the measurement of anatomical structures and for analysis packages that provide information that is used for clinical diagnosis purposes. Ultrasound is used as an imaging aid, but may have further restrictions specific to in-vitro fertilization (IVF), chorionic villus sampling (CVS), and percutaneous umbilical cord blood sampling (PUBS) procedures. Observe local laws and regulations. For ACUSON NX3 Elite ACUSON NX3 Elite ultrasound imaging systems are intended for the following applications: Fetal, Abdominal (including liver, intra-operative), Pediatric, Small Parts(Small Organ including intra-operative), Transcranial, OB/GYN, Pelvic, Neonatal, Cardiac, Vascular(including Peripheral Vessel, intra-operative), Musculoskeletal, Superficial Musculoskeletal and Urology applications.

More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes standard ultrasound imaging technology and post-processing techniques, with no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No.
The device is used for diagnostic imaging and analysis, not for treatment. Its stated purpose is for clinical diagnosis and imaging aid.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the system "provide[s] information that is used for clinical diagnosis purposes." Furthermore, the "Device Description" section refers to the devices as "Diagnostic Ultrasound Systems."

No

The device is described as a "multi-purpose mobile, software controlled, diagnostic ultrasound system" and explicitly mentions transmitting ultrasonic energy and performing post-processing of received echoes, indicating it includes hardware components for image acquisition and processing.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the system is for ultrasound imaging and provides measurements and analysis packages that provide information used for clinical diagnosis purposes. This describes a medical imaging device used to visualize internal structures and provide data for a physician's diagnosis, not a device that performs tests on biological samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description details how the system acquires and processes ultrasound echo data to display images and information on a screen. This aligns with the function of an ultrasound imaging system.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to test biological samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to detect the presence of specific substances or markers within those samples. IVDs are designed for these types of analyses.

The device is a diagnostic ultrasound system, which is a type of medical device used for diagnosis, but it does not fit the definition of 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)

Ultrasound is used as an imaging aid, but may have further restrictions specific to in-vitro fertilization (IVF), chorionic villus sampling (CVS), and percutaneous umbilical cord blood sampling (PUBS) procedures. Observe local laws and regulations.

The Arterial Health Package (AHP) software provides the physician with the capability to measure Intima Media Thickness and the option to reference normative tables that have been validated and published in peer-reviewed studies. The information is intended to provide the physician with an easily understood tool for communicating with patients regarding state of their cardiovascular system. Note: This feature can be utilized according to the "ASE Consensus Statement; Use of Carotid Ultrasound to Identify Subclinical Vascular Disease and Evaluate Cardiovascular Disease Risk: A Consensus Statement from the American Society of Echocardiography Carotid Intima-Media Thickness Task Force. Endorsed by the Society for Vascular Medicine."
