Intended Use

Diagnostic ultrasound imaging of the human body as follows: Fetal, Abdominal, Cardiac Adult (B mode, M mode)

Device Description

Model CTS-285 is a compact-type linear/convex electronic scanning ultrasound system with a built-in digital scan converter (DSC). The unit allows adult heart, abdominal organ and fetal tomographic images to be observable on a video monitor. The main unit is portable and is separable from other equipment to be carried for its use at another place as well as being usable in combination with a full keyboard, 9-inch video monitor and a special photographic unit.

AI/ML Overview

This 510(k) premarket notification describes the CTS-285 Diagnostic Ultrasound System. The primary method for proving substantial equivalence to the predicate device, Hitachi Medical Corporation EUB-310 (K862867), is through a comparison of technological characteristics. There are no direct performance studies with acceptance criteria in the document that would be typical for AI/ML devices. Therefore, I will create a table to compare the reported specifications of the new device (SIUI CTS-285) against its predicate (Hitachi EUB-310A) to infer "acceptance criteria" based on the predicate's established performance, and then note the new device's "performance" based on its characteristics.

§ 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.
