Information about equipment and protocols used to collect images: - For training we used mix of data collected from several different Console variants: Venue Go, Venue Fit, LOGIQ e, LOGIQ F and Vscan air. - For verification we used mix of data collected from several different Console variants: Venue, Venue Go and Venue Fit. Information about how the reference standard was derived from the dataset (i.e. the "truthing" process): Ground truth annotations of the verification dataset were obtained as follows: - In all Training/Validation and Verification datasets, annotators performed manual annotation on images converted from DICOM files. - The annotators chose 4-6 images that represent different bladder volume status. On each view the annotation included 4 different landmarks, which represent the bladder edges: Transverse: Anterior, Posterior, left and right. Longitudinal: Head, Foot, Anterior and Posterior. - These points would correspond to the locations where the measurement calipers would be placed for Bladder Volume Measurement. Description of how independence of verification data from training data was ensured: - The data used for the verification dataset is exclusive, comprising of completely independent subjects from data used during training/validation (tuning) processes and there is no overlap between the two. {13} GE HealthCare 510(k) Premarket Notification Submission ## Summary of Clinical Tests: The subjects of this premarket submission, Venue, Venue Go, Venue Fit and Venue Sprint, did not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence. ## Conclusion: Based on the equipment design similarities, conformance to recognized performance standards, and performance testing, GE HealthCare considers the proposed Venue, Venue Go, Venue Fit and Venue Sprint to be as safe, Effective, and performs in a substantially equivalent manner as the predicates Venue, Venue Go, Venue Fit and Venue Sprint (K240111, K240053, K234106 and K240206, respectively).
