Intended Use

BR-FHUS Navigation 1.0 is intended as a standalone software device installed on a standalone windows-based computer to assist physicians with tools for electromagnetic tracking of instruments in respect of breast ultrasound images generated from FDA cleared handheld ultrasound devices. The device is not intended to be used in the environment of strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields, such as in Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) room. BR-FHUS Navigation 1.0 is indicated for use as an adjunct to handheld breast ultrasound to assist the physicians in their scanning process. The scanning paths are displayed on a route map and provide quality control of scanning to provide an overall observation of scanning process.

Device Story

Standalone software on Windows PC; assists physicians during breast ultrasound scanning. Inputs: video feed from ultrasound system (via frame grabber) and spatial data from 3D electromagnetic tracking system (Ascension Technologies). Tracking system uses transmitter, sensor electronics, and 6DOF sensor clipped to ultrasound transducer. Device transforms inputs into real-time scanning path visualization on a route map; provides quality control metrics for scanning coverage. Used in clinical settings by physicians. Output: visual route map and scanning quality feedback. Benefits: assists physician in ensuring comprehensive breast ultrasound scanning; provides observation of scanning process.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Verification and validation testing performed in-house using breast phantoms in a simulated work environment to confirm functional requirements and accuracy specifications.

Technological Characteristics

Standalone software on off-the-shelf PC (Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, Windows). Electromagnetic tracking system (Ascension Technologies) with 6DOF sensor (Model 800) and urethane clip. Image capture via PCI or USB frame grabber. Connectivity: wired Ethernet, HDMI, USB. No specific material standards cited for hardware components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for use as an adjunct to handheld breast ultrasound to assist physicians in the scanning process for breast imaging. Not for use in strong magnetic or electromagnetic fields (e.g., MRI rooms).

Regulatory Classification

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.

Special Controls

*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.

The Leader of Medical Software {7}------------------------------------------------ The Leader of Medical Software #### 5.6. Performance Data Performance, Verification and Validation testing for BR-FHUS Navigation 1.0 was performed per internal procedures to ensure that all functional requirements have been met, and that core functions execute as expected. Testing was conducted in-house by trained personnel in a simulated workenvironment using breast phantoms to obtain the functional and accuracy test results. The result of these tests demonstrates that BR-FHUS Navigation 1.0 validation is with in specification. As such, BR-FHUS Navigation 1.0 is as safe and effective as the predicate devices and is substantially equivalent to existing products on the market today. {8}------------------------------------------------ # TaiHao Medical Inc. The Leader of Medical Software BR-FHUS Navigation 1.0 indications for use are drawn from the indications for use of a legally marketed predicate device: Tractus TissueMapper Image Recording System. BR-FHUS Navigation 1.0 draws from features of this predicate device. As such, the features provided by BR-FHUS Navigation 1.0 do not in themselves raise new concerns of safety or effectiveness. In all instances, BR-FHUS Navigation 1.0 functioned as intended and the operation observed was as expected. #### 5.7. Substantial Equivalence The intended use, technological characteristics, and major functionality of BR-FHUS Navigation 1.0. is similar to the predicate device. Neither new safety nor new effectiveness issues are introduced during or after using this device. The performance data generated, as described, demonstrates that our device is as safe and effective, as compared to the predicate device. Therefore, we believe BR-FHUS Navigation 1.0 is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
