K203502 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the MEDO-Thyroid. Classified as Automated Radiological Image Processing Software within the QIH classification (a category dominated by AI-based automated radiology processing systems), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Medo DX Pte. , Ltd. (Edmonton, CA). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 23, 2021 after a review of 144 days - within the typical 510(k) review window.

This device falls under the Radiology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 892.2050 - the FDA radiology and imaging software oversight framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Incremental AI imaging tool. Moderate equivalence dependency. Overall, this clearance reflects a predicate-aligned approval typical of modern AI radiology extensions - not a novel clinical breakthrough, but a validated iteration within an established regulatory category.
