Premarket evidence — what FDA accepted

Device typesamd
source quote (p.6)
Clarius OB Al is a machine learning algorithm that is incorporated into the Clarius App software as part of the complete Clarius Ultrasound Scanner system for use in obstetric (OB) ultrasound imaging applications.
Algorithmdeep learning image segmentation algorithm; deep neural network (DNN) model
source quote (p.6)
Clarius OB Al is intended for use by trained healthcare practitioners for non-invasive measurements of fetal biometric parameters on ultrasound data acquired by the Clarius Ultrasound Scanner system (i.e., curvilinear scanner) using a deep learning image segmentation algorithm. The Clarius OB Al deep neural network (DNN) model was trained using three data sets: training, validation (tuning), and testing.
Adaptive (vs locked)No
source quote (p.9)
Ultrasound image processing software application implementing artificial intelligence utilizing non-adaptive machine learning algorithms trained with clinical and/or artificial data intended for
PCCPYes
source quote (p.1)
FDA's substantial equivalence determination also included the review and clearance of your Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP).
Cybersecurity addressedYes
source quote (p.11)
Clarius conforms to the cybersecurity requirements by implementing a process of preventing unauthorized access, modifications, misuse or denial of use, or the unauthorized use of information that is stored, accessed or transferred from a medical device to an external recipient.

Recall and MAUDE counts are product-code-level (reports aren't reliably attributable to one device); a recall is shown as device-attributed only when the recall record itself lists this clearance number. Signals are descriptive observables with sources — never a judgment that the device is unsafe or drifting. Snapshot 2026-07-08.

Reimbursement — how devices like this got paid

Not yet tracked — no payment pathway indexed for this clearance (the reimbursement corpus is a growing seed set).

Applicable FDA guidance — what the submission is measured against

FDA guidance documents and guiding principles applicable to 510(k) AI/ML devices in the Radiology panel. A curated reference index, not legal or regulatory advice — each item states its own status, and a draft is never binding.

Applicability is derived from the device's FDA advisory panel and pathway — cross-cutting guidances apply to every AI/ML device; panel-specific ones are flagged. Titles, dates, and links verified against fda.gov as of July 2026.
