Intended Use

The Intercept-Urethral Microcoil is recommended for high-resolution Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the male and female urethra and surrounding tissue. The single use, disposable coil was designed to be inserted in the urethra of the patient during MRI scans in order to obtain improved image quality in the anatomical regions surrounding the urethra including the prostate in males. The flexible coil facilitates placement of the coil in the anatomy. This product is to be used with a 1.5T GE Signa MRI machine. The signals picked up by the coil are conducted through a small coaxial cable to a connection with the standard surface coil connector for MRI systems. The coil and cable are completely sealed inside the insulating layer.

Device Description

The Intercept-Urethral Microcoil (IUMC) is an intracavitary specialty coil for use in MRI imaging of the anatomical regions surrounding the urethra. The signals picked up by the coil are conducted through a small coaxial cable to a connection with the standard surface coil connector for MRI systems. The imaging coil and the coaxial cable are completely sealed inside the insulating sleeve. This device is advanced into the subject's urethra and positioned in the region of interest. The balancing and decoupling circuit is located outside the body.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Intercept-Urethral Microcoil (IUMC). It describes the device, its intended use, and the testing conducted to demonstrate its safety and effectiveness. However, it does not contain specific acceptance criteria, numeric performance metrics (sensitivity, specificity, AUC), or a detailed study description with a test set, ground truth experts, or training set information as requested in the prompt.

The document states that the imaging performance was evaluated and that "The imaging performance was evaluated in the male and female urethra. These images are shown in Exhibit 7." However, Exhibit 7 is not provided in the given text, and therefore, no quantitative performance metrics for imaging performance are available to construct the acceptance criteria table.

Based on the provided text, I can extract the following information about the studies performed, but without the specific numerical acceptance criteria or performance results:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Note: The document describes the types of tests performed and their general outcomes ("no excess heating," "no possibility of increased susceptibility," "imaging performance was evaluated," "met performance specifications"), but it does not provide specific, quantifiable acceptance criteria or numerical performance results (e.g., a specific temperature threshold, a specific imaging quality score, or mechanical specifications). Therefore, this table is based on the qualitative outcomes described.

Acceptance Criteria CategoryReported Device Performance (Qualitative)
Excess RF HeatingNo excess heating when IUMC is positioned in a phantom representative of worst-case clinical conditions. Change in temperature not significantly different than without the coil.
Peripheral Nerve StimulationNo possibility of increased susceptibility of patients to peripheral nerve stimulation (based on current leakage calculations).
Imaging PerformanceEvaluated in the male and female urethra (images shown in Exhibit 7, not provided).
Mechanical TestingNo safety issues found; all performance specifications (stiffness, tensile, tracking, torque, electrical testing) were met to satisfaction. Mechanical flexing resulted in insignificant changes in electrical properties.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Test Set Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for imaging performance. For RF heating, a "phantom that is representative of worst case clinical conditions" was used. For mechanical testing, individual components underwent testing.
  • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated. The studies appear to be laboratory-based and phantom-based for heating and mechanical testing. Imaging performance evaluation was done on "male and female urethra," implying human subjects, but details are not provided. Origin (e.g., country) is not mentioned.
  • Retrospective/Prospective: Not specified.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

  • Not specified. The document does not describe a ground truth establishment process involving experts for the tests mentioned. For imaging performance, it only states that images were evaluated and shown in an exhibit.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Not specified. No mention of an adjudication process.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

  • No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study is not mentioned. The document describes tests related to safety (heating, nerve stimulation, mechanical) and general imaging performance, not a comparison of human readers with and without AI assistance.

6. Standalone Performance (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance)

  • This is not applicable as the device described (Intercept-Urethral Microcoil) is an accessory to an MRI system designed to improve image quality, not an AI algorithm. Its "standalone" performance refers to its physical and electrical properties, not an algorithmic output.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used for the Test Set

  • For RF Heating and Nerve Stimulation: Calculated values and phantom measurements, comparing with and without the coil.
  • For Mechanical Testing: Performance specifications (presumably engineering standards and internal benchmarks).
  • For Imaging Performance: "Evaluated in the male and female urethra" - the specific ground truth (e.g., clinical diagnosis, pathology) is not described, nor is how the "evaluation" was performed (e.g., by experts, objectively).

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Not applicable. The device is a physical medical device (a coil), not a software algorithm that requires a training set.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

  • Not applicable, as this is a physical device and not an AI algorithm.

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS E.

See Section D, above.

E. TESTING

Surgi-Vision carried out testing and/or analysis of the Intercept-Urethral Microcoil that addressed the following issues:

  • Possibility of excess RF heating; (1)
  • Possibility of increased susceptibility of patients to peripheral (2) nerve stimulation;
  • (3) Imaging performance; and
  • (4) Mechanical testing.

The results of the heating experiments demonstrate that there is no Surgi-Vision, Inc. Exhibit 1-Page 2 Intercept-Urethral Microcoil June 7, 2001

{2}------------------------------------------------

excess heating when IUMC is positioned in a phantom that is representative of worst case clinical conditions. The change in temperature observed during use of the IUMC is not significantly different then that observed without the coil.

The calculations done to determine current leakage by the MRI pulsed gradient field demonstrate that there is no possibility of increased susceptibility of patients to nerve stimulation.

The imaging performance was evaluated in the male and female urethra. These images are shown in Exhibit 7.

Mechanical test results demonstrated that there are no safety issues and that all of the performance specifications were met. Stiffness, tensile, tracking, torque, and electrical testing were all completed to the satisfaction of the specifications. Mechanical flexing resulted in insignificant changes in the electrical properties of the coils. These results are described in Exhibit 8.

G. CONCLUSIONS

This pre-market submission has demonstrated the IUMC is safe and effective for the additional indications as required and understood in the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act and various guidance documents issued by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health.
