K180535 Voluson P series Diagnostic Ultrasound System
No
The document does not mention AI, ML, deep learning, or any related terms, nor does it describe features or functionalities typically associated with AI/ML in medical imaging (e.g., automated detection, segmentation, or analysis driven by learned algorithms). The description focuses on standard ultrasound imaging modes and processing capabilities.
No
This device is described as a "general-purpose diagnostic ultrasound system" intended for imaging, measurement, display, and analysis, not for treatment.
Yes.
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is a "general-purpose diagnostic ultrasound system."
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of a mobile console with control panel, full touch monitor, and optional image storage and printing devices, indicating it is a hardware system with integrated software.
Based on the provided text, the Voluson SWIFT, Voluson SWIFT+ is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Definition of IVD: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Voluson SWIFT/SWIFT+ Function: The description clearly states that the Voluson SWIFT/SWIFT+ is a diagnostic ultrasound system used for ultrasound imaging, measurement, display and analysis of the human body and fluid. It uses ultrasound waves to create images of internal structures.
- No Mention of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the device analyzing any biological specimens taken from the body. Its function is based on non-invasive imaging of the body.
Therefore, the Voluson SWIFT, Voluson SWIFT+ falls under the category of medical imaging devices, not In Vitro Diagnostic devices.
N/A

Dear Mr. Behn:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmp/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.
