The Anchor Guide™ Localization Device is indicated for localization of breast lesions.
The SenoRx Anchor Guide™ Localization Device is a single use electrosurgical localization device which is used to localize and fixate a target lesion in the breast. Accessories are available separately.
This document is a 510(k) summary for the SenoRx Anchor Guide™ Localization Device, dated June 27, 2001, and approved on September 12, 2001. It is a premarket notification to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than a study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria based on performance data. Therefore, many of the requested sections (e.g., specific acceptance criteria, reported performance, sample sizes, expert ground truth, MRMC study, standalone performance) cannot be filled from the provided text.
Here's an analysis based on the available information:
Analysis of Device Acceptance and Study Information:
This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for the SenoRx Anchor Guide™ Localization Device. A 510(k) is a premarket submission made to FDA to demonstrate that the device to be marketed is at least as safe and effective as a legally marketed predicate device and does not require premarket approval (PMA). The primary goal of a 510(k) is to establish "substantial equivalence," not necessarily to provide detailed clinical study data with acceptance criteria and performance metrics described in the way a clinical trial report would.
Therefore, the provided text does not contain information about specific acceptance criteria or a study that demonstrably "proves" the device meets these criteria in terms of quantitative performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy). Instead, it focuses on demonstrating equivalence to predicate devices.
Missing Information:
- Specific Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance: This type of information is generally not detailed in a 510(k) summary as it focuses on equivalence rather than de novo performance.
- Sample Size for Test Set and Data Provenance: Not applicable in this context as no new clinical performance study is described.
- Number of Experts/Qualifications for Ground Truth: Not applicable.
- Adjudication Method: Not applicable.
- MRMC Comparative Effectiveness Study: Not mentioned, as the focus is on equivalence.
- Standalone Performance: Not addressed.
- Type of Ground Truth Used: Not applicable.
- Sample Size for Training Set: Not applicable.
- How Ground Truth for Training Set was Established: Not applicable.
What the document does provide:
- Device Identification: Anchor Guide™ Localization Device
- Intended Use: Localization of breast lesions.
- Comparison to Predicate Devices: The document explicitly states: "The intended use, design, construction, materials and technology are comparable to the predicate devices." This is the core of their "proof" of safety and effectiveness for a 510(k) pathway – not through a new performance study, but by demonstrating similarity to already approved devices.
- Predicate Devices Listed: Kopans Breast Lesion Localization Needle (Cook, Milex), Biopsy Assistant (Surgimedics), PrecisionGuide Breast Lesion Localization Needle (Becton-Dickinson), Bovie Hand Control (Sybron), Sure Core Biopsy Electrode (Interventional Concepts, Inc.).
- Regulatory Decision: The FDA determined the device is "substantially equivalent" to legally marketed predicate devices.
Summary Table (with placeholders for missing information):
| Feature | Acceptance Criteria (from document) | Reported Device Performance (from document) | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Overall Device Performance | Explicit acceptance criteria are not provided in this 510(k) summary. | No quantitative performance metrics are reported. | The 510(k) process relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than meeting new, specific performance criteria through a dedicated study. The "acceptance" by FDA is based on this demonstration of equivalence in intended use, design, construction, materials, and technology. |
| Primary Performance Metric (e.g., accuracy, precision) | N/A (Not defined for this 510(k) submission) | N/A | |
| Safety | Implicitly, device should be as safe as predicate devices. | No specific safety data is reported in this summary. | The substantial equivalence determination ensures that the device does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. General controls provisions (annual registration, GMP, labeling, etc.) would apply. |
| Effectiveness | Implicitly, device should be as effective as predicate devices for its intended use. | No specific effectiveness data is reported in this summary. | The claim is that "The intended use, design, construction, materials and technology are comparable to the predicate devices," implying comparable effectiveness for breast lesion localization. |
Detailed Breakdown of Requested Information (based on provided text):
-
A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
- Acceptance Criteria: Not explicitly stated as quantitative metrics in this 510(k) summary. The implicit acceptance criteria are that the device is "substantially equivalent" to legally marketed predicate devices in terms of intended use, design, construction, materials, and technology.
- Reported Device Performance: No specific quantitative performance metrics (e.g., accuracy, success rate, mean localization error) are reported in this document. The "performance" is considered equivalent to the predicate devices.
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- No test set for performance evaluation is described in this 510(k) summary. This document is not a clinical study report.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)
- Not applicable; no test set or ground truth establishment process is described.
-
Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not applicable; no test set is described.
-
If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance
- No MRMC or AI-assisted study is mentioned. This device is a physical localization device, not an AI-driven image analysis tool.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not applicable; this is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- Not applicable; no specific study with ground truth is described.
-
The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable; no training set for an algorithm is mentioned.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable; no training set or ground truth establishment is mentioned.
In conclusion, the provided 510(k) summary demonstrates substantial equivalence to predicate devices, which is the basis for its market clearance. It does not provide the details of a clinical performance study with acceptance criteria and measured device performance that would traditionally be found in a study report.
