K230209 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the Sonix Health. 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 Ontact Health Co., Ltd. (Seoul, KR). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on October 20, 2023 after a review of 268 days - an extended review cycle.

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-to-high 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.
