Unknown
The summary mentions "automatically determine bladder volume" but does not explicitly state the method used for this automation, which could potentially involve AI/ML but is not confirmed.
No
The device is described as a "diagnostic ultrasound system," and its intended use is for "non-invasive imaging" and to "automatically determine bladder volume." These functions are for diagnosis and imaging, not for treating or preventing disease.
Yes
The device description explicitly states, "The Uscan is a hand-held, diagnostic ultrasound system..."
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "hand-held, diagnostic ultrasound system" and mentions acquiring "ultrasound echo data," which indicates it includes hardware components (the transducer and processing unit) in addition to software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
- Uscan Function: The Uscan is an ultrasound system that performs non-invasive imaging of the human body. It acquires echo data from within the body and displays it as an image. It does not analyze samples taken from the body.
The description clearly states its purpose is "non-invasive imaging of the human body" and describes its function as acquiring "ultrasound echo data and display it in B-Mode". This is the core function of an ultrasound machine, which is not an IVD.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Uscan is for non-invasive imaging of the human body and is intended for the following applications: Abdominal, Musculoskeletal, Pediatric, Small Organ, and Peripheral Vessel. Users must have ultrasound training for abdominal, musculoskeletal, pediatric, small organ, and peripheral vessel imaging.
The Uscan can also be used to obtain an image of the bladder that is used to automatically determine bladder volume.

§ 892.1560 Ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system.
(a)
Identification. An ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system is a device intended to project a pulsed sound beam into body tissue to determine the depth or location of the tissue interfaces and to measure the duration of an acoustic pulse from the transmitter to the tissue interface and back to the receiver. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A biopsy needle guide kit intended for use with an ultrasonic pulsed echo imaging system only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

Dear Mr. Job:
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. Iisting 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 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.
