Device Story
HP SONOS and Philips SonoDiagnost ultrasound imaging systems; modification involves transition from analog to digital circuit technology for front-end receive functions. Systems used for diagnostic ultrasound imaging across cardiovascular, obstetric, gynecologic, and neurological applications. Digital front-end processing improves signal handling; maintains clinical utility of existing ultrasound platforms. Operated by trained clinicians/sonographers in clinical settings. Output consists of diagnostic ultrasound images/data used for clinical decision-making. Benefits include enhanced performance and reliability associated with digital signal processing.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Safety and effectiveness demonstrated through compliance with medical device safety standards (IEC 601, UL 2601), hazard analysis, and software validation.
Technological Characteristics
Digital circuit technology for front-end receive functions. Compliance with IEC 601 and UL 2601 safety standards. Software-based signal processing.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An ultrasonic pulsed doppler imaging system is a device that combines the features of continuous wave doppler-effect technology with pulsed-echo effect technology and is intended to determine stationary body tissue characteristics, such as depth or location of tissue interfaces or dynamic tissue characteristics such as velocity of blood or tissue motion. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.
