Intended Use

EchoGo Pro v1.0.2 is a machine learning-based decision support system, indicated as an adjunct to diagnostic stress echocardiography for patients undergoing assessment for coronary artery disease (CAD). It is to be used with stress echo exam protocols containing A2C, A4C, and mid-ventricular short-axis views at rest and peak stress.

Technology

EchoGo Pro v1.0.2 is a standalone software application that uses anonymized DICOM 3.0 compliant stress echo datasets (ultrasound images) and employs automated image registration, segmentation, and analysis of the left ventricle using machine learning models to generate a categorical classification of coronary artery disease likelihood. It supports standard clinical SE views (apical 2-chamber, 4-chamber, and parasternal short-axis), requires operator approval of LV contouring, and outputs a report for clinical use. The software operates on Windows platforms using off-the-shelf hardware.

Performance

Performance testing included software verification and validation according to FDA guidance, clinical testing to evaluate diagnostic performance improvement and inter-operator agreement with EchoGo Pro compared to without assistance. The system showed statistically significant improvement in reader diagnostic performance (AUROC 0.927) and inter-operator agreement (Kendall Tau-B increase to 0.82, p<0.001), exceeding the predicate device's reported improvements. These demonstrate that EchoGo Pro is as safe and effective as the predicate device.
