Intended Use

DeltaView is intended to generate a secondary residual image based on a current and prior chest x-ray image of the same patient, resulting in improved detection of lung nodules that have changed between the two examinations. The DeltaView image provides adjunctive information and is not a substitute for the original PA/AP image. This device is intended to be used by trained professionals, such as physicians and radiologists, on patients with risk of having lung nodules, and is not intended to be used on pediatric patients.

Device Description

DeltaView is a dedicated post-processing application which registers current and prior chest exams to provide an image that shows areas of change.

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study details for the DeltaView™ device based on the provided text:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria (Study Objective)Reported Device Performance
Radiologist's results when using DeltaView images are superior to results when using standard prior and current AP/PA x-ray image pairs alone.Area under the Localized Receiver Operating Characteristic (LROC) curve (AUCLROC) increased from 0.477 (Unaided) to 0.536 (with DeltaView) (12.4% increase).
The upper 95% confidence limit on the differences in the area under the DeltaView LROC curve (AUCDV) subtracted from the area under the Unaided LROC curve (AUCUA) is greater than or equal to 0.0.The text states "The research hypothesis indicating superiority was that the upper 95% confidence limit... is greater than or equal to 0.0," and the reported AUCLROC increase supports this.

Study Details

  1. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • The document does not explicitly state the sample size (number of cases or images) used for the test set.
    • The document does not specify the data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective).
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • The document does not specify the number of experts or their qualifications for establishing ground truth.
  3. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • The document does not specify an adjudication method for the test set.
  4. 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:

    • Yes, an MRMC reader study was done.
    • Effect size: The area under the LROC curve (AUCLROC) "increased from 0.477 to 0.536 (12.4%)" when radiologists were aided by DeltaView compared to unaided interpretation. This indicates a 12.4% improvement in the AUCLROC.
  5. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:

    • The document does not state that a standalone (algorithm-only) performance study was conducted. The study described focuses on human-in-the-loop performance with the device as an adjunct.

    • The type of ground truth used is not explicitly stated. However, the study evaluated "the detection of actionable lung nodules," implying that a determination of the presence or change of such nodules constituted the ground truth.
  7. The sample size for the training set:

    • The document does not provide information on the sample size used for the training set.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

Comparison to Predicate Device:

DeltaView is substantially equivalent to the cited predicate device. Differences in the design and performance from the cited predicate device do not affect either the safety or effectiveness of Delta View for its intended use.

Conclusion: DeltaView is a mathematical model of the current medical practice of manually comparing radiographic images. Radiologists routinely compare prior and current chest x-rays from the same patient, when available, to ascertain whether pathological change has occurred. The comparison requires the radiologist to associate regions of interest and neutralize the acquisition effects. Delta View facilitates the comparison process through the automated formation of a difference image, by registering and subtracting a difference of normalized, bone suppressed image pairs. DeltaView achieves this using a variety of advanced image processing and pattern recognition methods. Just as the cited predicate device removes obstructions from a chest X-ray image in order to enhance the radiologist's detection of suspicious structures, so DeltaView obscures the unchanged portions of patient images taken over time in order to enhance the radiologist's detection of suspicious, changed structures. Furthermore, DeltaView uses the same bone suppression mechanism as the predicate device as part of its residual image algorithm. There are no new issues of safety and effectiveness raised by the incorporation of the predicate device's bone suppression in this new device. Reader Study Results: In a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) reader study, radiologists interpreted pairs of images in order to compare the radiologists' ability to detect valid change when they were aided by the DeltaView image. Localized receiver operating characteristic curves (in terms of the trade-off between sensitivity and specificity when the decision criteria change) were used to evaluate radiologists' diagnostic performance in the detection of actionable lung nodules on chest radiographs with and without the usage of DeltaView. The results indicated that DeltaView should be

{2}------------------------------------------------

a useful adjunct for the interpretation of chest radiographs when looking for a change in a lung nodule.

The objective of the study was to demonstrate that a radiologist's results when using DeltaView images are superior to the radiologist's results when using standard prior and current AP/PA x-ray image pairs alone. Localized Receiver Operating Characteristic (LROC) Analysis and analyses for Sensitivity, Specificity, and Positive and Negative Predictive Value were performed. The research hypothesis indicating superiority was that the upper 95% confidence limit on the differences in the area under the DeltaView LROC curve (AUCDV) subtracted from the area under the Unaided LROC curve (AUCUA) is greater than or equal to 0.0.

There were significant changes when the DeltaView difference image was used. The area under the LROC curve (AUCLROC) increased from 0.477 to 0.536 (12.4%) (p = 2.9E-05)

Substantial Equivalence: The reader study described above used similar methods and achieved similar results to the reader study that was reviewed by FDA when clearing the predicate device (K092363). In both cases, an image processing application generates a secondary image for the radiologist to view, and in both cases, the use of this secondary image resulted in a statistically significant improvement in the radiologist's ability to detect actionable lung nodules.

It should also be noted that Delta View automates the current clinical reading practice of manually comparing a current radiographic image with a prior image from the same patient.
