No
The document does not mention AI, ML, or related terms like deep learning or neural networks. The description focuses on standard ultrasound imaging modes and post-processing of echoes, which are typical for traditional ultrasound systems. The "Not applicable" responses for training/test sets and performance studies further indicate the absence of AI/ML components that would typically require such validation.
No.
The device is described as a "general purpose diagnostic ultrasound system" and its function is to "acquire and display ultrasound data," indicating it is used for imaging and diagnosis, not for treating conditions.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "This device is a general purpose diagnostic ultrasound system..." and its primary function is to "acquire and display ultrasound data" for imaging, measurement, display, and analysis of the human body and fluid, which are all diagnostic activities.
No
The device description explicitly states that the system consists of an app and probes which use wireless technology for communication. Probes are hardware components essential for acquiring the ultrasound data.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Function: The TE Air Diagnostic Ultrasound System is described as a "general purpose diagnostic ultrasound system." Its function is to acquire and display ultrasound data by transmitting ultrasonic energy into the patient's body and processing the received echoes.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for ultrasound imaging, measurement, display, and analysis of the human body and fluid within the body.
- No mention of samples: There is no indication that this device analyzes samples taken from the body.
Therefore, the TE Air Diagnostic Ultrasound System is a diagnostic imaging device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Shi Jufang:
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/cfpmn/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. 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
