  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Output and human action
Automatic detection of 7 first-trimester or 18 second/third-trimester views, supported fetal anatomical structures, presence or absence quality criteria, placenta location (anterior/posterior), and fetal sex (male/female), with yellow highlighting for unverified items and user-editable assignments.

  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Limitations
The packet states that Sonio Detect was validated only with GE, Canon, Philips, and Samsung ultrasound devices and is intended only for those vendors. Outputs are concurrent reading aids that can be overridden by the user; the packet does not establish a diagnostic conclusion or a clinical-outcome claim. No clinical study was required for substantial equivalence.

Implementation

Questions for IT, informatics, and operations

Use these fields to structure a vendor demo, security review, and implementation estimate.

Integration
The packet describes edge software on a local server receiving DICOM instances from the ultrasound machine, uploading them to Sonio Cloud, and SaaS access through an internet browser, with Chrome recommended. It does not establish a specific PACS, RIS, EHR, interface version, or pure cloud-only deployment.

Metrics are shown only when they are tied to a source, endpoint, population, and tested product version. Candidate literature without exact product and version linkage is not shown as product evidence.

Evidence summary
FDA K240406 reports standalone performance testing on 36,769 fetal ultrasound images using a global validation dataset independent of development and operating-point data. The table reports endpoint-specific sensitivity and specificity: view sensitivity was 0.914 for 7 first-trimester views and 0.937 for 18 second/third-trimester views; paired structure or characteristic results included brain 0.934/0.949, thorax and heart 0.861/0.938 for trimester 1 and 0.919/0.976 for trimesters 2/3, placenta structures 0.967/0.856, CRL/NT/profile 0.898/0.862 for trimester 1 and 0.893/0.956 for trimesters 2/3, anterior placenta location 0.959/0.966, posterior location 0.966/0.959, female sex 0.977/0.987, and male sex 0.987/0.977. The table also reports sensitivity-only values of 0.892 for 3D-image detection, 0.973 for Doppler-image detection, and 0.913 for view detection from image annotations.

Safety and lifecycle

Postmarket record

Recall and adverse-event records are shown only after product matching. Adverse-event reports do not establish incidence or causality.

Postmarket safety review
The exact-identifier FDA recall query returned no native recall record for K240406. This limited result does not establish absence of recalls or other safety information and does not cover later versions, family records, MAUDE reports, corrections, or field notices.

Exact-submission ACR model-card fields were normalized under the current provenance rules; vendor and independent-study confirmation remain distinct. Exact FDA scope controls clinical claims. ACR provides bounded exact-submission catalog context. Candidate literature metadata remains a discovery queue until full-text identity, endpoint, population, and version review is completed. Automated exact-name discovery found 0 PubMed and 0 ClinicalTrials.gov candidate records. Candidates require human product and version matching; zero candidates is not evidence that no studies exist. Native FDA recall identifiers produced 0 postmarket candidate records; 0 have been reviewed (0 published, 0 rejected) and 0 remain unreviewed.

Candidate leads remain unpublished until a human confirms the exact product and tested version.
