AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a Picture Archiving and Communications System (PACS) called "Acies." As such, it describes the device's intended use and claims substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than presenting a study with acceptance criteria and performance metrics for a novel AI/CAD device.

Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, and standalone performance for an AI/CAD device cannot be extracted from this document.

The document focuses on:

  • Device Identification: Company, submitter, trade name, common name, classification, product code.
  • Device Description: The Acies is software for configuring a PACS, enabling processing and presentation of medical images from various modalities, interfacing with storage/printing via DICOM. It explicitly states that lossy compressed mammographic images must not be reviewed for primary interpretation and that mammographic images require FDA-approved monitors with specific resolution. It also mentions displaying diagnostic images from FDA-approved CAD processors.
  • Indications for Use: Primarily facilitates processing and presentation of medical images on suitable display monitors, interfacing with various modality systems and storage/printing devices using DICOM.
  • Substantial Equivalence: Compares the Acies to existing predicate devices (HOLOGIC SecurView DX, K062107 and KONICAMINOLTA REGIUS Unitea / ImagePilot, K071436), claiming similar indications for use, technological characteristics, and stating that verification and validation testing showed no safety/efficacy issues.
  • Conformance to Standards: Lists several relevant standards (IEC 62304, ISO 14971, ISO/IEC 10918-1, DICOM).
  • Conclusion: Reaffirms substantial equivalence to predicate devices.
  • FDA Clearance Letter: Confirms the 510(k) clearance based on substantial equivalence.

In summary, this document does not contain the information required to answer your specific questions related to AI/CAD device performance studies. It is a regulatory submission for a PACS system, not a study report validating an AI algorithm's diagnostic performance.
