Sonio Detect

Sonio

Authorized purpose: Analyze fetal ultrasound images and clips to automatically detect views, detect anatomical structures within views, and verify view-quality criteria as a concurrent reading aid during acquisition and interpretation.

Evidence status: each field states its source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established, and vendor documentation pending remain distinct outcomes.

Clinical takeaway

Clinical role: Analyze fetal ultrasound images and clips to automatically detect views, detect anatomical structures within views, and verify view-quality criteria as a concurrent reading aid during acquisition and interpretation.

Evidence takeaway

Evidence from the reviewed source record: Standalone bench testing used 17,885 fetal-ultrasound images from seven clinical sites in the United States, France, and Germany, independent of model-development data. Reported endpoints included 3D-image detection sensitivity 0.980 (95% Wilson CI 0.930-0.994), Doppler-image sensitivity 0.963 (0.908-0.985), annotation-reading proportion correct 0.923 (0.905-0.938), some T1-view sensitivity 0.942, some T2/T3-view sensitivity 0.919, fetal-brain structure sensitivity/specificity 0.857/0.963, fetal-heart structure sensitivity/specificity 0.900/0.982, and brain-view zoom sensitivity/specificity 0.952/0.906 (95% Wilson CIs 0.909-0.976 and 0.758-0.968). Clinical studies were stated to be not applicable for substantial equivalence.

Evidence summary
Standalone bench testing used 17,885 fetal-ultrasound images from seven clinical sites in the United States, France, and Germany, independent of model-development data. Reported endpoints included 3D-image detection sensitivity 0.980 (95% Wilson CI 0.930-0.994), Doppler-image sensitivity 0.963 (0.908-0.985), annotation-reading proportion correct 0.923 (0.905-0.938), some T1-view sensitivity 0.942, some T2/T3-view sensitivity 0.919, fetal-brain structure sensitivity/specificity 0.857/0.963, fetal-heart structure sensitivity/specificity 0.900/0.982, and brain-view zoom sensitivity/specificity 0.952/0.906 (95% Wilson CIs 0.909-0.976 and 0.758-0.968). Clinical studies were stated to be not applicable for substantial equivalence.

Reported sensitivity
FDA endpoint-specific sensitivity: 3D fetal-ultrasound image detection 0.980 (95% Wilson CI 0.930-0.994); Doppler image detection 0.963 (0.908-0.985); some T1 views 0.942 point estimate; some T2/T3 views 0.919 point estimate; some fetal-brain structures 0.857 point estimate; some fetal-heart structures 0.900 point estimate; brain-view zoom verification 0.952 (95% Wilson CI 0.909-0.976).
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-09

The FDA reports multiple view-, image-type-, structure-, and quality-criterion sensitivities; the baseline's isolated 0.980 value is not a device-wide endpoint.

Reported specificity
FDA endpoint-specific specificity: some fetal-brain structures 0.963 point estimate; some fetal-heart structures 0.982 point estimate; brain-view zoom verification 0.906 (95% Wilson CI 0.758-0.968).
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-09

Specificity is reported only for bounded structure and zoom-quality endpoints; annotation-reading proportion correct and view-detection sensitivities are separate measures.

No contextualized exact-version metric has completed evidence review. Regulatory-document values, when available, are shown above with their limitations.
