Agfa's CR Mammography System with DX-M Digitizer is indicated for use in diagnostic and screening mammography. It is intended to be used wherever conventional film/ mammography screen systems are used.
The new device is defined as:
- . Agfa's DX-M digitizer.
- HM5.0 image detectors designed for mammography, and .
- . The NX user workstation with a mammography license.
The device uses detectors which are exposed to x-rays. The detectors are then scanned by the digitizer to create an electronic images are sent to a user workstation for patient identification, image previewing and adjustment, before sending them to a viewing workstation (PACS system) or printer for use by the physician. Principles of operation and technological characteristics of the new and predicate devices are the same. With optional general radiography screens and cassettes, the DX-M digitizer has the same capabilities as Agfa's DX-G.

Sample Size and Data Provenance for Test Set: The document does not specify a numerical sample size for the clinical image evaluation test set. It mentions "Anonymized images were evaluated." The data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) is not explicitly stated.
-
Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth (Test Set): The document states "An evaluation of clinical images by expert, MQSA qualified radiologists was conducted." The exact number of radiologists is not specified, nor is their specific years of experience. "MQSA qualified" indicates they meet the minimum qualification standards for interpreting mammograms in the United States.
-
Adjudication Method for Test Set: The document does not describe a specific adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1). It only states that "reviewers found all studies to be of acceptable overall clinical image quality." This implies a consensus or individual assessment without a detailed adjudication process mentioned.
-
Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study: No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not explicitly mentioned or described. The study focused on assessing the image quality of the new device by expert radiologists, not on comparing human readers' performance with and without AI assistance.
-
Standalone Performance Study: Yes, a standalone (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) study was conducted for the device's technical specifications. This is indicated by the "Laboratory imaging tests of the new device consistent with IEC 62220-1-2 has been completed" which included evaluation of sensitometric response, spatial resolution, noise analysis, dynamic range, erasure, fading, repeat exposures, AEC performance, and mammography phantoms.
-
Type of Ground Truth Used:
- For the technical laboratory tests (sensitometric response, spatial resolution, etc.), the ground truth was based on objective measurements and industry standards (IEC 62220-1-2) using phantoms.
- For the clinical image evaluation, the ground truth was based on expert consensus from MQSA qualified radiologists regarding "acceptable overall clinical image quality."
-
Sample Size for Training Set: The document does not mention a training set or its sample size. This submission is for a medical imaging digitizer, which typically doesn't involve machine learning training in the same way an AI algorithm would. Its performance is based on the physical characteristics of the imaging components and processing algorithms.
-
How Ground Truth for Training Set was Established: Not applicable, as a training set for machine learning is not described.

The DQE values range from 0.0 to 1.0, and the spatial frequency values range from 0 to 10. Both curves decrease as spatial frequency increases.
Figure 1 DOE data at ca. 100 µGy exposure level.
An evaluation of clinical images by expert, MQSA qualified radiologists was conducted. Reviewers evaluated breast positioning, exposure, image contrast, sharpness, tissue visibility at the skin line noise and overall clinical image quality. Anonymized images were evaluated to determine if they were of acceptable quality for mammographic use. Reviewers found all studies to be of acceptable overall clinical image quality.
Development of the new device did not involve patient exposures or treatment.
ে CONCLUSIONS
This 510(K) has demonstrated Substantial Equivalence as defined and understood in the Federal Food Drug and Cosmetic Act and various guidance documents issued by the Center for Devices and Radiological Health.

Dear Mr. Cuscuna:
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 class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. 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.
