Device Description

The SuperSonic Imagine AIXPLORER® MACH / SUPERSONIC MACH systems are cart-based ultrasound imaging systems 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, microconvex, 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 (harmonic or fundamental), Mmode, Color Flow (and sub-modes as CFI-ColorFlow Imaging, CPI-ColorPower Imaging- also called Amplitude Doppler, dCPI-directional Color Power Imaging and Angio PL.U.S), Pulsed Wave Doppler, Continuous Wave Doppler, 3D imaging, CEUS-Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound Imaging and for ShearWave™ elastography and Strain Elastography.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for an ultrasound diagnostic system. It explicitly states in section 8: "A brief discussion of the clinical tests submitted, referenced, or relied on in the premarket notification submission for a determination of substantial equivalence: Not applicable." This indicates that no clinical tests were performed or relied upon for this submission. Therefore, there is no test set sample size and no data provenance in terms of patient data from clinical studies for this specific submission to evaluate the AI's performance.

The submission focuses on non-clinical testing and comparison to a predicate device. The "new indications" for transducers are for established ultrasound modalities (e.g., CEUS, Strain Elastography, new quantification methods), not a novel AI-driven diagnostic.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

Since no clinical studies with patient data were conducted or relied upon for this 510(k) submission, there were no experts used to establish ground truth for a test set. The evaluation was based on non-clinical engineering and performance testing to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

As no clinical test set was used, there was no adjudication method employed.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done

No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The submission explicitly states "Not applicable" for clinical tests (Section 8). This type of study would involve human readers and their performance with and without AI assistance, which is outside the scope of this non-clinical submission for substantial equivalence based on technical specifications and functional equivalence to a predicate device.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

The document does not describe any specific "standalone" AI algorithm performance studies. While the devices include features like "ShearWave™ Elastography" and "Strain Elastography" which rely on sophisticated algorithms for tissue property assessment, these features were previously cleared on the predicate device (K191007) and are stated to be "Identical." The submission emphasizes functional equivalence and safety rather than novel AI performance claim. The new features for the AIXPLORER® MACH / SUPERSONIC MACH systems are "Vi PLUS" and "Att PLUS & SSp PLUS" for specific transducers (L10-2, C6-1X, C9-2X). These are described as measurements related to vascularization, microvascularization, perfusion, and attenuation/shear wave speed, which may involve advanced processing, but their standalone performance is not detailed in the context of a dedicated performance study against ground truth.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

Given the absence of clinical studies, there was no ground truth derived from expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data in the context of this 510(k) submission. The "ground truth" for the non-clinical testing was defined by established engineering and performance standards (e.g., acoustic output measurements against NEMA standards, electrical safety against IEC standards) and comparison to the predicate device's established performance.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

Since no AI-specific clinical performance study for a novel algorithm was described, there is no information provided regarding a training set sample size. The submission is focused on demonstrating that the new device's technical specifications and functionality are substantially equivalent to a previously cleared predicate device.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

As no training set is mentioned or implied for a novel AI algorithm's clinical performance, this information is not applicable and not provided in the document.

4) Description of Device

The SuperSonic Imagine AIXPLORER® MACH / SUPERSONIC MACH systems are cart-based ultrasound imaging systems 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, microconvex, 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 (harmonic or fundamental), Mmode, Color Flow (and sub-modes as CFI-ColorFlow Imaging, CPI-ColorPower Imaging- also called Amplitude Doppler, dCPI-directional Color Power Imaging and Angio PL.U.S), Pulsed Wave Doppler, Continuous Wave Doppler, 3D imaging, CEUS-Contrast Enhanced Ultrasound Imaging and for ShearWave™ elastography and Strain Elastography.
