The LifeJet™ Video Link is a video image digitizer for the acquisition and conversion into digital format of medical images codified as analogue video signal.
The LifeJet™ Video Link has been developed to be used together with LifeJet™ Printers to produce referral prints of images coming out from ultrasound systems or other medical equipment through the video signal output.
The LifeJet™ Video Link is a small box that integrates the functions and the hardware of a standard personal computer based on a Pentium architecture, for the purpose of acquisition and conversion into digital format of medical images codified as analogue video signal.
The provided text, K013395 for Ferrania S.p.A. LifeJet™ Video Link, does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets said criteria.
The document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification summary, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, not on presenting performance data from a specific study against predefined acceptance criteria.
Specifically, Section 10.9, titled "Performance data," explicitly states: "Not required for this type of device and its level of concern."
Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request for the detailed information as it is not present in the provided input.

10.7 Statement of intended use
The LifeJet™ Video Link is a video image digitizer for the acquisition and conversion into digital format of medical images codified as analogue video signal.
The LifeJet™ Video Link has been developed to be used together with LifeJet™ Printers to produce referral prints of images coming out from ultrasound systems or other medical equipment through the video signal output.
Comparison with predicate device 10.8
The purpose and functionality of the Ferrania LifeJet™ Video Link are substantially equivalent to the CHILI® Video system (510(k) number: K000411). The basis for the equivalence is that both of them are video capture systems based on standard

hardware components and software operating systems which perform the same functions relating to image acquisition.
The only difference is that the LifeJet™ Video Link integrates the functions and the hardware of a standard personal computer based on a Pentium architecture in a small box. So, no external keyboard and monitor are necessary to use the Video Link; a dedicated user interface, composed of a LCD and a few functional keys, is mounted on the front panel of the device for its control.
The technological equivalence of the two devices and the equivalence in terms of their features are summarized in the table below.

Dear Ms. Carson:
We have reviewed your 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. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.
