Intended Use

VSI HoloMedicine® is a software device for displaying digital medical images acquired from CT, Angio CT, MRI, CBCT, PET, and SPECT sources. It is intended to visualize 3D imaging holograms of the patient for pre-operative planning outside and/or inside the surgical room.

When accessing VSI HoloMedicine® from a wireless head-mounted display (HMD) or PC monitor, images viewed are for informational purposes only and not intended for diagnostic use. VSI HoloMedicine® is indicated for use by qualified healthcare professionals including surgeons, radiologists, physicians, and technologists.

Device Description

VSI HoloMedicine is a software device for displaying digital medical images acquired from CT, Angio CT, MRI, CBCT, PET, and SPECT sources. It is intended to visualize 3D imaging holograms of the patient for pre-operative planning outside and/or inside the surgical room.

VSI HoloMedicine is indicated for use by qualified healthcare professionals including surgeons, radiologists, physicians, and technologists.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text does not contain detailed performance data or acceptance criteria for the VSI HoloMedicine® device beyond a general statement that "Visual quality testing on software using the Microsoft Hololens Headset has been performed." and that "software verification demonstrate that the VSI Holomedicine should perform as intended in the specified use conditions."

The document focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Medivis-SurgicalAR K190764) and a reference device (Novarad-OpenSight K172418) based on their design, indications for use, and technology. It lists applicable standards, but does not provide the results of specific performance tests against measurable acceptance criteria.

Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request for:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This information is not present in the provided text.
  2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance: This information is not present.
  3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: This information is not present.
  4. Adjudication method for the test set: This information is not present.
  5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, and its effect size: This information is not present.
  6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: This information is not present.
  7. The type of ground truth used: This information is not present.
  8. The sample size for the training set: This information is not present.
  9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: This information is not present.

The document primarily provides regulatory information for a 510(k) submission, confirming the device's substantial equivalence and general safety/effectiveness, rather than detailed performance study results.

Dear Liliana Duarte:

We have reviewed vour Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal

{1}------------------------------------------------

statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

For comprehensive regulatory information about mediation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/medicaldevices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance) and CDRH Learn (https://www.fda.gov/training-and-continuing-education/cdrh-learn). Additionally, you may contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) to ask a question about a specific regulatory topic.

5.7 Performance Data

Visual quality testing on software using the Microsoft Hololens Headset has been performed.

5.8 Conclusion

The subject device VSI HoloMedicine® is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. VSI HoloMedicine® shares a substantially equivalent design, indications for use and technology (i.e. features, materials, and principles of operation) with the predicate device and no new elements pertaining to change in safety or effectiveness have been identified.

The non-clinical and clinical data demonstrate that VSI HoloMedicine is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed device predicate. Moreover, software verification demonstrate that the VSI Holomedicine should perform as intended in the specified use conditions.

§ 892.2050 Medical image management and processing system.

(a)
Identification. A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.(b)
