The diagnostic ultrasound systems are manufactured with hardware components which consist of: 1) a primary console (e.g., workstation, tablet with touchscreen) with built-in software components, features, and various clinical applications, and 2) a range of compatible ultrasound transducers. A suite of compatible transducers are offered with the Sonosic Ultrasound Systems. These include linear array, curved array, phased array, intra-cavitary, static probes and trans-esophageal transducers. Linear array transducers (prefixed with the letter L) produce a rectangular field of view with uniform beam density throughout and are useful for imaging shallow structures and small parts. Curved array transducers (prefixed with the letter C) allow for a wider field of vith decreased line density at depth and reduced lateral resolution. They are the ideal probe for lung ultrasound imaging. Phased array transducers (prefixed with the letter P) are small faced transducers allowing for imaging in small spaces. They are able to change the focus of the ultrasound beam. It is the optimal transducer recommended for cardiac imaging. Trans-esophageal transducers (prefixed with the letters TE) are commonly used for evaluation of cardiac and aortic structures. Intra-cavitary transducers (prefixed with the letters IC) are used for trans-rectal ultrasounds. Some models may have additional previously-cleared accessories, or components which are manufactured by other manufacturers.

Study Details (Based on the provided text)
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Test Set Sample Size: Not specified in terms of clinical cases or patient data. The document refers to "bench testing" of imaging and measurement accuracy. This implies a test set of physical phantoms, simulated data, or lab-based scenarios, not a human patient cohort.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable for a clinical test set from human subjects since the testing described is non-clinical/bench testing.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- Not applicable as the testing described is non-clinical bench testing, not a clinical study involving human expert interpretation. Ground truth for bench testing would be established by the physical properties of the phantoms or known parameters of the simulated data.
-
Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Not applicable, as this refers to a clinical study interpretation process, which is not detailed here.
-
If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:
- No MRMC comparative effectiveness study is described in this document. The focus is on the device itself and its equivalence to predicate devices, not on human-AI augmented performance.
-
If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- The "bench testing for imaging performance and measurement accuracy" represents a form of standalone testing, as it evaluates the device's technical capabilities (image quality, automated measurements like bladder volume) without human interpretation in a clinical setting mentioned. However, specific metrics (e.g., accuracy, precision) are not provided beyond stating substantial equivalence to predicate devices.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- For the bench testing, the ground truth would likely be physical measurements from phantoms or known parameters of simulated datasets used to evaluate imaging performance and measurement accuracy. No clinical ground truth (like pathology or expert consensus on patient data) is mentioned for the testing described.
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable. This document does not describe the development or training of any AI/ML components in the Uscan, but rather its regulatory clearance as a diagnostic ultrasound system. While automated bladder volume determination might imply some underlying algorithm, the training data and its size are not disclosed here.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable, as the training set details are not provided.
Summary of what the document implies about "meeting acceptance criteria":
The provided 510(k) summary primarily demonstrates that the Uscan device meets regulatory acceptance criteria by:
- Conforming to a comprehensive list of FDA-recognized international and national standards for medical electrical equipment, software, usability, risk management, biological evaluation, and acoustic output.
- Undergoing bench testing that showed its imaging performance and measurement accuracy to be "substantially equivalent" to predicate devices.
- Having verified risk mitigation and functioning as intended per verification and validation reports.
It does not provide details about specific clinical performance acceptance criteria (e.g., diagnostic accuracy thresholds like sensitivity/specificity for detecting certain conditions) or a clinical study demonstrating the device's ability to meet such criteria in a human population. The approval is based on substantial equivalence and compliance with engineering and safety standards.

The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the FUJIFILM SonoSite iViz Ultrasound System. The purpose of this document is to demonstrate that the iViz Ultrasound System is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices.
Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study information as requested:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
The document does not explicitly state acceptance criteria in terms of specific performance metrics (e.g., accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, image quality scores) for the device's diagnostic capabilities. Instead, the "acceptance criteria" are implied through the comparisons to predicate devices and adherence to recognized standards.
The primary method to demonstrate acceptance is through substantial equivalence to existing, legally marketed predicate devices by showing comparable:
- Intended Use
- Indications for Use
- Technological Characteristics
- Safety and Effectiveness (via non-clinical testing)
Below is a table summarizing the general "acceptance criteria" (implicitly by comparison to predicates and standards) and the device's reported performance (by asserting compliance and equivalence).
Acceptance Criteria (Implicit) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Intended Use Equivalence: Device intended for diagnostic ultrasound imaging or fluid flow analysis of the human body, comparable to predicate devices. | The SonoSite iViz Ultrasound System has the same intended use as the predicate devices: "a general purpose ultrasound system and non-continuous patient monitoring platform intended for use in clinical care by qualified physicians and healthcare professionals for evaluation by ultrasound imaging or fluid flow analysis." |
Indications for Use Equivalence: Device supported clinical applications align with or expand upon those of predicate devices. | The SonoSite iViz Ultrasound System and its various transducers (L38v/10-5 MHz, P21v/5-1 MHz, C60v/5-2 MHz, L25v/13-6 MHz) cover a range of clinical applications including Fetal, Abdominal, Pediatric, Small Organ, Musculo-skeletal, Cardiac Adult/Pediatric, Peripheral vessel, and Ophthalmic. Many of these are "P" (previously cleared) from identified predicate devices (K162288, K133454, K162045, K152983), and some are "N" (new indications) for specific transducers. The document asserts these are consistent with predicates. |
Technological Characteristics Equivalence: Fundamental scientific technology, transducer types, frequency ranges, and modes of operation are comparable to predicate devices. | The SonoSite iViz Ultrasound System employs the "same fundamental scientific technology" as the SonoSite iViz, Edge, and Edge II Ultrasound systems (Track 3 devices). Comparison tables (Pg 9) detail comparable transducer types (Linear Array, Phased Array, Curved Array), frequency ranges (1.0 - 13.0 MHz), and modes of operation (B-mode, M-mode, Color Power Doppler, SonoHD3 Noise Reduction, etc.), with some differences noted (e.g., PW and CW Doppler not available on iViz but available on older Edge models). |
Safety and Effectiveness: Compliance with recognized electrical, thermal, mechanical, EMC, cleaning/disinfection, biocompatibility, and acoustic output standards. | The iViz Ultrasound System was evaluated for electrical, thermal, mechanical, and EMC safety, cleaning/disinfection, biocompatibility, and acoustic output. It was found to conform to applicable mandatory medical device safety standards (e.g., ISO 10993-1, IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-6, IEC 60601-2-37, IEC 62304, IEC 62359, ISO 14971, NEMA UD 2-2004). Quality assurance processes were also followed. |
No new questions of safety or effectiveness are raised. | The conclusion explicitly states that "FUJIFILM SonoSite, Inc. believes that the iViz Ultrasound System is substantially equivalent with regard to safety and effectiveness to the predicate devices." |
Study Proving Acceptance Criteria:
The document states: "The iViz Ultrasound System and transducers, subject of this submission, did not require clinical studies to support the determination of substantial equivalence."
Instead, the determination of substantial equivalence is based on non-clinical tests and a comparison of technological characteristics and intended uses with identified predicate devices.
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
No clinical test set was used, as no clinical studies were deemed necessary. The acceptance was based on non-clinical testing and comparison to predicates.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts:
Not applicable, as no clinical test set requiring expert ground truth was utilized.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:
Not applicable, as no clinical test set requiring adjudication was utilized.
5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:
Not applicable. This device is a diagnostic ultrasound system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for interpretation by human readers. The document makes no mention of AI assistance.
6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
Not applicable. The device is a diagnostic ultrasound system, operated by a qualified physician or healthcare professional. It is not a standalone algorithm.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:
For the non-clinical tests (e.g., electrical, thermal, EMC, acoustic output), the "ground truth" would be the specifications and requirements defined by the referenced industry standards (e.g., IEC 60601 series, ISO 10993, NEMA UD 2-2004). The device's performance against these standards served as the "ground truth" for non-clinical acceptance.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:
Not applicable. The document does not describe the development of an AI model or algorithm that would require a "training set."
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:
Not applicable, as there was no mention of a training set for an AI model.
