Overview
AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026
This device is a Transducer, Ultrasonic, Obstetric, classified under FDA product code HGL. It is a linear array ultrasound probe designed for obstetric and gynecological imaging, operating at a frequency of 3.0 MHz. Linear array probes provide real-time imaging with a rectangular field of view, enabling detailed visualization of soft tissues and organs in the pelvic region. The probe is intended for use in diagnostic ultrasound examinations to assess fetal development, placental positioning, and maternal anatomy.
The 3.0 MHz Linear Array Probe Model UST 5031 is supplied as a reusable device, intended for use in clinical settings such as hospitals and obstetrics/gynecology clinics. It is not sterile at time of shipment but is designed to be cleaned and reprocessed according to established infection control protocols. The probe is classified as a Class II medical device under FDA regulations (21 CFR 884.2960) and holds an FDA 510(k) clearance (K860313) for substantial equivalence. No specific MRI safety information is provided, and users should follow manufacturer guidelines for safe operation in magnetic environments.
