—
Indications for Use
Us2.ca processes acquired transthoracic cardiac ultrasound images to support qualified cardiologists, sonographers, or other licensed professional healthcare practitioners in their diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis. Us2.ca is intended for use only in adult patients with increased left ventricular wall thickness, defined as an interventricular septal thickness (IVSd) or left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWd) ≥ 12mm. Us2.ca is not intended to provide a diagnosis and does not replace current standards of care. The results from Us2.ca are not intended to exclude the need for further follow-up on cardiac amyloidosis.
Device Story
Us2.ca is a clinical decision support software that analyzes DICOM-format transthoracic echocardiogram images; specifically apical 4-chamber (A4C) clips. It uses a video-based deep-learning algorithm to identify cardiac amyloidosis. The device operates on the Us2.ai platform, hosted on third-party infrastructure. It processes images to generate automated measurements and disease indications. Results meeting confidence thresholds are presented in a report for review by cardiologists, sonographers, or other licensed practitioners. The device is intended to improve clinical workflow and speed of reporting; however, it does not provide a definitive diagnosis, does not replace standard of care, and does not identify specific regions of interest or pathology. Final clinical interpretation and decision-making remain with the clinician. It is validated for use with GE and Philips ultrasound systems.
Clinical Evidence
Retrospective case-control study across six clinical sites (USA/Japan) using 1,647 patients (independent validation cohort). Primary endpoints were sensitivity and specificity for cardiac amyloidosis detection in patients with IVSd/LVPWd ≥ 12mm. In 1,434 patients with confident predictions, sensitivity was 86.9% (95% CI: 84.2%-89.7%) and specificity was 87.4% (95% CI: 85.2%-89.7%). Subgroup analyses performed by age, gender, race, ultrasound vendor (GE/Philips), and clinical site.
Technological Characteristics
SaMD; machine learning-based algorithm; processes DICOM echocardiogram files. Operates on third-party cloud infrastructure. Validated for GE and Philips ultrasound systems. Implements cybersecurity controls per FDA guidance. Software verification conducted at unit, module, and system integration levels.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult patients with increased left ventricular wall thickness (IVSd or LVPWd ≥ 12mm) undergoing transthoracic echocardiography to support clinicians in the diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis.

# Device Description
The Us2.ai platform is a clinical decision support tool that analyzes echocardiogram images in order to generate a series of AI-derived measurements. Fully automated, functional reporting with disease indications is also provided, in line with ASE & ESC guidelines.
Echo images are sent to the Us2.ai platform where they are processed, analyzed and measured. Results that meet the confidence threshold for both image quality and measurement accuracy are passed through to a report for review by the clinical users. Report text is also generated and presented with the measurements, providing functional reporting and disease indications. The ultimate clinical decision and interpretation reside solely with the clinician.
Us2.ca is an enhancement to Us2.ai existing Us2.v2 software, adding the capability to detect cardiac amyloidosis. It is an image post-processing analysis software device used for viewing and quantifying cardiovascular ultrasound images in DICOM format. The device is intended to aid diagnostic review and analysis of echocardiographic data, patient record management and reporting.
The primary intended function of Us2.ca is to automatically identify patients who require additional follow-up for cardiac amyloidosis. In doing so, the primary benefit is to improve clinical echocardiographic workflow, enabling clinicians to generate and edit reports faster, with precision and with full control. The final clinical decision of the results still remains with the clinicians.
# Indications for Use
Us2.ca processes acquired transthoracic cardiac ultrasound images to support qualified cardiologists, sonographers, or other licensed professional healthcare practitioners in their diagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis. Us2.ca is intended for use only in adult patients with increased left ventricular wall thickness, defined as an interventricular septal thickness (IVSd) or left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWd) ≥ 12mm. Us2.ca is not intended to provide a diagnosis and does not replace current standards of care. The results from Us2.ca are not intended to exclude the need for further follow-up on cardiac amyloidosis.
# Limitations
Please note the following limitations:
- Our software complements good patient care and does not exempt the user from the responsibility to provide supervision, clinically review the patient, and make appropriate clinical decisions.
- During image acquisition, inappropriate use of the echo machine, use of non-cardiac ultrasound probes, use of suboptimal settings (e.g., gain, contrast, or depth), or lack of electrocardiogram capture may lead to lower accuracy of the software.
- Us2.ca does not identify regions of interest or areas of possible pathology in the images.
- Us2.ca does not differentiate different types of cardiac amyloidosis, e.g., hereditary ATTR, wild-type ATTR, and AL.

## Performance Data
Us2.ca was developed and tested in accordance with Us2.ai’s Design Control processes. The device has been subject to extensive safety and performance testing. Non-clinical verification and validation test results established that the device meets its design requirements and intended use. Specifically, software verification was conducted at unit, module, and system integration levels. Risk management analysis generated multiple risk mitigation measures and verification activities. A Cybersecurity Analysis and data security testing were conducted to verify that data and patient protected health information security measures are included in the design of the software. A Human Factors/Usability Engineering study performed according to the principles of AAMI/ANSI HE75 was performed to validate the device’s usability within the intended user population.
Us2.ca uses a video-based deep-learning approach for CA detection. The model analyzes Apical 4-Chamber (A4C) clips and identifies the presence of CA. The primary objective of the Us2.ca performance test protocol is to validate the performance of Us2.ca, developed for the detection of cardiac amyloidosis in apical four-chamber (A4C) echocardiographic images of adult patients with IVSd or LVPWd ≥ 12mm. The testing data involved two cohorts: Cardiac Amyloidosis Group (CA Group) and Control Group.
The primary performance metrics were sensitivity and specificity. The benchmark used in deriving the acceptance criteria of Us2.ca was made with reference to current standards of care and existing relevant publications.
Us2.ca device performance was evaluated in accordance to a retrospective case-control study across various sites in the USA and Japan. Data was obtained using a range of PACS system to

# Results for Us2.ca
Us2.ca was developed using a training dataset comprising 4,371 patients and externally validated on an independent pooled dataset of 1,647 patients. The training and external validation datasets were sourced from entirely separate data providers, ensuring no overlap and maintaining full independence between development and evaluation. The external validation cohort included a demographically and geographically diverse population, collected from six clinical sites across the United States and Japan. All echocardiographic studies were retrospectively obtained from routine clinical evaluations and provided in standard DICOM format. Ultrasound data were obtained from GE, Philips, and Siemens systems to train the machine learning-based software device, but the testing data were only obtained from GE and Philips systems.

# Substantial Equivalence Conclusion
Us2.ca is an image processing software which has similar intended use and indications for use statement as the predicate device. The two devices have similar technological characteristics: both use machine learning algorithms to automate the measurement of transthoracic cardiac images. As both the subject and predicate devices support the detection of cardiac amyloidosis, this does not in and of itself produce different questions of safety and effectiveness. This 510(k) submission includes information on the Us2.ca technological characteristics, as well as performance data and verification and validation activities. Given the similarity of both devices, the enclosed information demonstrates that Us2.ca is as safe and effective as the predicate, and does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.

1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
