The SOPRANO XL™ Multi-Application Platform includes a Diode Laser Module and an optional NIR Module.
The Diode Laser Module:
The HR Mode is intended for hair removal, permanent hair reduction.
The LaserBlanche Mode is intended for the treatment of benign vascular and pigmented lesions.
The NIR Module is intended to emit energy in the infrared spectrum to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating the tissue temperature for the temporary relief of minor muscle pain and joint pain and stiffness, the temporary relief of minor joint pain associated with arthritis, the temporary increase in local circulation where applied, and the relaxation of muscles; may also help muscle spasms, minor sprains and strains, and minor muscular back pain.
The SOPRANO XL™ Multi-Application Platform is intended for use on all skin types (Fitzpatrick skin types I-VI), including tanned skin.
The Soprano XL Multi-Application Platform features an additional indication for the treatment of benign vascular and pigmented lesions introduced to its Diode Module compared to the existing Alma Lasers, Ltd. (former MSq., Ltd.) Soprano Diode Laser System, previously cleared under K052874 for hair removal and long-term hair reduction. The Soprano XL system is indicated for use on all skin types (Fitzpatrick Skin Types I-VI), including tanned skin.
The Soprano XL Multi-Application Platform is a multi-application, multi-technology platform that supports the following technologies:
· Diode laser technology
· Near-infrared light technology (NIR)
Both the Soprano and Soprano XL systems consist of a console, a diode module and a footswitch. The module is pressed against the patient skin and a laser pulse is delivered when the module trigger and the footswitch are activated. The module tip is cooled by the cooling system.
Output parameters and other system features are controlled from the touch-screen control panel on the console, which provides an interface to the system micro-controller through an LCD touch-screen.
The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the Alma Lasers Soprano XL Multi-Application Platform. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than proving performance against specific acceptance criteria through novel studies.
Therefore, the document does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria, a study proving device performance against those criteria, sample sizes for test/training sets, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, or specific ground truth methodologies for new data.
The core argument for clearance is based on the device having "the same or similar indications for use, similar design features, and functional features with, and thus is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices."
Below is a breakdown of why each specific point you requested cannot be found in this document:
-
A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This document does not present specific quantitative acceptance criteria or results from a performance study designed to meet them. It relies on the equivalence to previously cleared 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 data is described. The clearance is based on comparison to predicate devices, not on new clinical performance data from a test set.
-
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): No ground truth establishment for a test set is discussed.
-
Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: No test set or corresponding adjudication method is mentioned.
-
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: This device is a laser platform, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study and
AI assistance metrics are not applicable and are not present. -
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done: This device is a physical laser system, not an algorithm. Standalone algorithm performance is not applicable.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): As no new performance study is detailed, no ground truth methodology for such a study is provided.
-
The sample size for the training set: No training set is mentioned as this is not an AI/machine learning device.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable, as there's no training set.
In summary, this 510(k) submission is a "me-too" application, seeking clearance based on substantial equivalence to existing, legally marketed devices. It does not present new performance data against a defined set of acceptance criteria, nor does it involve AI or algorithmic performance evaluation.

Dear Ms. Epstein:
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 such 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
{3}------------------------------------------------

comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliaring at (240) 276-0115. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding postmarket surveillance, please contact CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometric's (OSB's) Division of Postmarket Surveillance at (240) 276-3474. For questions regarding the reporting of device adverse events (Medical Device Reporting (MDR)), please contact the Division of Surveillance Systems at (240) 276-3464.
