AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the PinPointe FootLaser, which is a medical device. This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (K093547).

It explicitly states: "No clinical data was needed for these indications. They are identical to those on K093547." and "The technological characteristics of the PinPointe Footlaser are substantially equivalent to those of the predicate device." and "The PinPointe FootLaser was found to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device."

Therefore, this document does not describe a study that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria in the way requested by the prompt (e.g., using a test set, ground truth, experts, etc.). Instead, its approval is based on a demonstration of equivalence to a previously approved device.

As such, I cannot provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes, experts, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or details about training sets, because these types of studies were not conducted or reported for this 510(k) submission.

The tables provided in the document compare the characteristics of the "PinPointe FootLaser" (the new device) to the "PinPointe FootLaser" (the predicate device K093547), highlighting their identical specifications and indications for use. This comparison serves as the basis for the declaration of substantial equivalence, not as a report of a new performance study against defined acceptance criteria for the new device itself.
