Intended Use

Diagnostic ultrasound imaging or fluid flow analysis of the human body as follows: Trans-esoph. (non-Card.), Airways and tracheobronchial tree.

Device Description

OLYMPUS XBF- UC180F-DT8 ULTRASONIC BRONCHOFIBERVIDEOSCOPE has been designed to be used with the SSD-Alpha5 (K041916) and SSD-Alpha10(K043196) diagnostic ultrasound systems (ALOKA CO.,LTD.), video system center, light source, documentation equipment, display monitor, and endo-therapy accessories such as aspiration blopsy needle. The subject device is designed for endoscopic real-time ultrasound imaging, for performing endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) guided fine needle aspiration (FNA) within the airway, tracheobronchial tree, esophagus, and surrounding organs.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document (K070983) is a 510(k) premarket notification decision letter from the FDA for the Olympus XBF-UC180F-DT8 Ultrasonic Bronchofibervideoscope. This type of document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than detailing specific performance studies with acceptance criteria in the manner expected for a de novo device or a more complex AI-driven medical device.

Therefore, the document does not contain the detailed information requested regarding acceptance criteria, study design, sample sizes, expert ground truth, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or training set details typical for an AI/ML device.

Here's why and what information can be extracted/inferred:

  • Type of Device: The device is an ultrasonic broncho-fibervideoscope, which is a hardware device for endoscopy with integrated ultrasound capabilities. It's not an AI/ML diagnostic software.
  • Regulatory Pathway: The 510(k) pathway demonstrates substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This typically involves showing that the new device has the same intended use, fundamental technological characteristics, and safety and effectiveness as the predicate, or that any differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. Formal clinical studies with performance metrics against acceptance criteria are often not required if engineering and non-clinical bench testing are sufficient to support equivalence.
  • Date: The document is dated 2017, predating widespread FDA guidance and requirements for AI/ML device performance studies outlining the specific details you've asked for.

Based on the available document, here's what can be stated about the device and its assessment:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The document does not explicitly state acceptance criteria in terms of specific performance metrics (like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy) for a diagnostic output. Instead, the "performance" demonstrated for a 510(k) device like this typically involves:

  • Bench Testing: Verification of technical specifications (e.g., ultrasound frequency, imaging depth, image quality, mechanical dimensions, electrical safety, biocompatibility, sterilization efficacy).
  • Verification and Validation (V&V): Ensuring the device meets its design inputs and intended use through various tests.

The document implicitly "accepts" the device's performance by finding it substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. This means its performance is considered comparable and safe/effective for its intended use.

No explicit table of acceptance criteria or numerical performance results (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, AUC) are provided in this regulatory letter. The letter is a communication of regulatory decision, not a detailed study report.

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

  • Test Set Sample Size: Not applicable in the context of typical AI/ML performance studies. For a hardware device, V&V tests would use units of the device itself and potentially phantoms or in-vivo animal models (not specified in this letter).
  • Data Provenance: Not applicable in the AI/ML sense. The "data" here would be the results of engineering tests, not patient data for algorithm training/testing.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications:

  • Experts: Not explicitly stated. For a physical device, ground truth during testing would likely be established through engineering measurements, expert medical assessment of image quality (e.g., by radiologists, pulmonologists, gastroenterologists familiar with endoscopic ultrasound), and potentially histological evaluation if biopsy results were part of functional testing (again, not detailed here).
  • Qualifications: Not specified within the letter.

4. Adjudication Method:

  • Adjudication Method: Not applicable or specified for this type of device and regulatory submission.

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

  • MRMC Study: No, this type of study is not mentioned as having been conducted or required for this 510(k) submission. MRMC studies are typically used to assess the impact of diagnostic aids (like AI) on physician performance. The device itself is a diagnostic tool, not an AI aid to another diagnostic process.

6. Standalone Performance:

  • Standalone Performance: Not applicable in the context of an AI algorithm. The performance of the device (XBF-UC180F-DT8) and its associated ultrasound system (ALOKA SSD-Alpha 5/10) is its standalone performance as a diagnostic imaging system. The letter doesn't isolate specific performance metrics outside of the combined system's functionality.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • Ground Truth: For a traditional diagnostic imaging device like this, ground truth in V&V trials would typically involve:
    • Phantom studies: Known physical properties measured by other means.
    • Pathology/Histology: For biopsy capabilities.
    • Clinical correlation: Experienced clinician interpretation or follow-up.
    • Engineering specifications: Meeting design requirements.
      The document doesn't specify which ground truth methods were primarily used for the 510(k) submission.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

  • Training Set Sample Size: Not applicable. This is a hardware device, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.

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

  • Ground Truth Establishment for Training Set: Not applicable, as there is no training set for an AI/ML algorithm.

In summary, the provided FDA 510(k) letter for the Olympus XBF-UC180F-DT8 Ultrasonic Bronchofibervideoscope is a regulatory outcome document demonstrating substantial equivalence. It does not contain the detailed performance study information that would be found in a submission for an AI/ML-driven diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Storms-Tyler,

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent (SE) letter of July 5, 2007 and our subsequent corrected SE letter of July 27, 2015.

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. 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 statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must
