1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The provided document details the design specifications and testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than explicit acceptance criteria and performance against those criteria in a tabular format typical for AI/CADe devices. However, we can infer the acceptance criteria and reported performance from the provided specifications and claims. The primary acceptance criterion is substantial equivalence to the predicate device, the piXarray 100 Digital Specimen Radiography (DSR) System, focusing on technological characteristics and safety.

Acceptance Criterion (Implied)Reported Device Performance (BioVision DSR System)
Safety:
Conformance to 21 CFR 1020.40 (Cabinet X-ray systems)Conforms to 21 CFR 1020.40.
Radiation emission not exceeding 0.5 milliroentgen in one hour at 5cm outside external surfaceRadiation emitted does not exceed 0.5 milliroentgen in one hour at 5cm outside the external surface.
Robust quality system for design and manufacturingDeveloped in a device design and manufacturing environment with a robust quality system, including detailed design inputs/outputs, V&V, risk assessment/management for software.
Functionality/Performance (against predicate):
Same Indications for UseSame Indications for Use as the piXarray 100 DSR system.
Similar Technological CharacteristicsSimilar technological characteristics as the piXarray 100 DSR system (e.g., X-ray technology, power source, digital imaging, computer interface, hardware, OS). Differences identified (X-ray coverage, imaging area, energy range, resolution, footprint) are deemed not significant or evolutionary.
Software functionality, safety features, user interface, operation, and documentation accurately portray intended useDeveloped, designed, tested, and validated to perform in this manner. Software controls subjected to significant verification and validation testing, including alpha validation of all functionality and hazard addressing.
Performs as well as the predicate devicePerformance testing and validation studies substantiate that the BioVision DSR System performs as well as the predicate.

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

The document does not specify a test set in the context of clinical data, as the device is not an AI/CADe device that performs automated analysis on patient images. The testing conducted was primarily related to hardware and software validation, and safety compliance.

  • Sample Size for Test Set: Not applicable in the context of clinical image analysis. The "test set" for hardware and software validation is not quantified in terms of number of cases or images.
  • Data Provenance: Not applicable for clinical data. The validation activities mentioned are internal and related to device design and function. The document mentions "a few devices, labeled 'Research Use Only,' are being placed to further document the submitter's performance claims and attempt to identify any unknown hazards," which suggests some limited, prospective, real-world deployment for further internal evaluation, but not as a formal clinical test set for regulatory submission.

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

This information is not provided as the submission does not detail a study involving expert-established ground truth on a clinical test set. The device is a digital X-ray imaging system, not an AI/CADe algorithm making diagnostic assessments.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not provided as there is no mention of a formal clinical test set requiring adjudication in the context of image interpretation or diagnostic accuracy.

5. 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

There was no MRMC comparative effectiveness study performed. Since this device is a digital specimen radiography system and not an AI/CADe or diagnostic aid intended to assist human readers, such a study is not relevant to its regulatory submission.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

A "standalone" performance study in the context of an algorithm's diagnostic accuracy was not performed. This device is a digital X-ray imaging system that produces images for human interpretation, not an algorithm that outputs a diagnostic result independently. The software in question (Bioptics Vision) handles image acquisition, display, analysis, and manipulation, not independent diagnostic assessment.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The concept of "ground truth" as it applies to clinical diagnostic accuracy (e.g., pathology, outcomes data) is not relevant for this submission. The ground truth for the device's performance relates to its ability to accurately acquire and display X-ray images, adhere to safety standards (e.g., radiation leakage), and perform its stated functions in line with design specifications. The acceptance of the device's functionality is based on its ability to produce images that allow medical professionals to "rapidly verify that the correct tissue has been excised."

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This information is not applicable. The BioVision Digital Specimen Radiography (DSR) System is a hardware device with controlling software, not an AI/ML algorithm that is "trained" on a dataset. The software performs image acquisition and processing based on deterministic algorithms, not learned patterns from a training set.

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

This information is not applicable for the same reasons stated in point 8.
