The summary does not mention AI, ML, or any related terms, and the performance studies described are focused on accuracy and reproducibility of pressure mapping, not algorithmic interpretation or prediction.
No
The device is used to document palpable breast lesions as an aid to a clinical exam, not to treat them.
No
Explanation: The device is described as an "aid in documenting palpable breast lesions identified during a clinical breast exam," rather than identifying or diagnosing lesions itself. It creates a surface pressure map to document existing findings, not to make a diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly states that the iBreastExam Gen II system consists of both hardware and software components, listing specific hardware components like the Scanhead, Computer System, USB Wall Charger, and Charging Cables.
Based on the provided information, the iBreastExam Gen II device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs analyze samples taken from the human body. The iBreastExam Gen II device produces a surface pressure map of the breast. This is a physical measurement taken on the body, not an analysis of a biological sample like blood, urine, or tissue.
- The intended use is to aid in documenting palpable breast lesions. This is a diagnostic aid based on physical examination, not a test performed on a sample to diagnose a condition.
- The device description focuses on hardware and software for creating a pressure map. There is no mention of reagents, assays, or any components typically associated with IVD testing.
Therefore, the iBreastExam Gen II device falls under the category of a medical device used for physical examination and documentation, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

- Physician's Office, Hospital, Primary Care ● Environment of use:
The device is intended to produce a surface pressure map of the breast as an aid in documenting size, shape, and location of breast lesions identified during a clinical breast exam. It is a documentation tool. It is not intended for diagnosis. The device should only be used to document a lesion already palpated on clinical breast exam. Clinical management decisions should only be made on the basis of the clinical and diagnostic examinations (e.g. ultrasound or mammography). If there is a disagreement between the examination and the record produced by the device, decisions should be made on the basis of the clinical examination.
Sterilization and Shelf Life:
The iBreastExam Gen II device does not have any sterilization requirements. The scanhead should be cleaned and disinfected by wiping twice with medical grade alcohol wipes (70% Isopropyl Alcohol) before and after each use. The iBreastExam Gen II system does not require any special storage conditions for the device. The storage conditions do not affect the device safety or effectiveness. The device does not have any specific shelf-life.
Principle and Theory of Operation:
iBreastExam Gen II system consists of a Scanhead which houses an array of capacitive pressure sensors. These pressure sensors measure tissue elasticity by making micro-palpations on the surface of the breasts and by differentiations in tissue stiffness. In that, the hard or
5
stiff areas will produce a response (depicted by red color on computer screen) as compared to fatty, glandular breast tissue (depicted by green color on computer screen). The amount of resistance offered by the breast tissues will be directly converted to voltage as measured by the sensing portion of the capacitive pressure sensors.
The breast lesion documentation procedure can only be performed after the Scanhead has an established Bluetooth wireless connection with the Computer, which is indicated on the Computer screen. The iBEConnect Software Program provides software-based positioning guidance to the user in order to perform the procedure. Tactile maps generated from the pressure data during the procedure can be displayed, stored, reviewed and printed using the iBEConnect Software Program.
