Intended Use

The Spectralis HRA+OCT is a non-contact ophthalmic diagnostic imaging device. It is intended for viewing the posterior segment of the eye, including two- and three-dimensional imaging, cross-sectional imaging, fundus photography, and fluorescence imaging (fluorescein, indocyanine green and autofluorescence), and to perform measurements of ocular anatomy and ocular lesions. The device is indicated as an aid in the detection and management of various ocular diseases including: age-related macular degeneration, macular edema, diabetic retinopathy, retinal and choroidal vascular diseases, glaucoma, and for viewing geographic atrophy as well as changes in the eye that result from neurodegenerative diseases. The Spectralis HRA+OCT includes a retinal nerve fiber layer thickness normative database, which is used to quantitatively compare the retinal nerve fiber layer in the human retina to a database of Caucasian normal subjects; the classification result is valid only for Caucasian subjects.

Device Description

The Spectralis HRA+OCT is a real-time imaging system of the posterior segment of the human eye and for aiding in the assessment and management of various diseases of the posteriorsegment, such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma. The device is a combination of optical coherence tomography (OCT) with confocal scanning laser ophthalmoscopy (cSLO). OCT imaging includes high-resolution cross-sectional imaging of ocular structures (e.g., retina, macula, optic nerve head); cSLO imaging includes high-resolution and dynamic infrared reflectance, blue reflectance, fluorescein angiography, indocvanine green angiography, and autofluorescence imaging. OCT images and cSLO images are acquired simultaneously and are viewed side-by-side on the computer screen. Images are acquired and stored using Spectralis operation software, which runs on a standard personal computer. Spectralis components include a laser scanning camera mount with headrest, operation panel, power supply box, operation software, and host computer. A MultiColor option has been added to provide additional green reflectance imaging and a "composite color" image, which provides a different view of the features of the eye. This composite color image is not the same as fundus color photo.

AI/ML Overview

The provided 510(k) summary for the Spectralis HRA+OCT device primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device and safety/performance through bench testing and a normative database study. It does not contain a typical acceptance criteria table with corresponding reported performance for a specific algorithm or AI model, nor does it describe a study specifically designed to prove a device meets such criteria in the context of AI performance.

Instead, the clinical evaluation section describes studies related to the device's measurement accuracy, repeatability, reproducibility, and the establishment of a normative database for Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer (RNFL) thickness, which is then used for classification.

Here's an attempt to extract and present the information based on the provided text, acknowledging the limitations in scope for AI-specific acceptance criteria and studies:

1. Table of "Acceptance Criteria" and Reported Device Performance

As this is a 510(k) for an imaging device with a normative database feature, the "acceptance criteria" are not framed in terms of AI performance metrics (like sensitivity, specificity, AUC). Instead, the performance is demonstrated through the characteristics of the normative database and the agreement with a predicate device.

"Acceptance Criteria" (Implicit from studies)Reported Device Performance
Accuracy of MeasurementsConfirmed accuracy of measured values compared to one another and compared to the true value, verifying performance is accurate and within stated specifications (Bench Testing).
Reproducibility and RepeatabilityCoefficients of variation of the measured endpoints were within the specified range for this device in a study with human volunteers.
Normative Database Characteristics- Age-adjusted percentiles for RNFL thickness: Demonstrated calculation and presentation of 1st and 5th percentiles for Global and specific sectors (T, TS, TI, N, NS, NI) at ages 45 and 65 years, with 95% confidence intervals. - Age adjustment: Linear regression of RNFL thickness vs. age was performed for various sectors; negative slopes showed decrease with age and were adjusted; insignificant positive slopes were not adjusted.
Agreement with Predicate Device (Stratus)A good linear correlation between RNFL thickness measurements with Spectralis and Stratus devices was found for healthy and glaucoma subjects across all measurement regions. Slopes and intercepts of regression lines were in the neighborhood of 1 and 0, respectively, though with some variation (indicating they should not be used interchangeably, which is noted as in agreement with published literature).
Performance in Disease (Qualitative)Case Reports and Case Series of eyes with various pathologies showed no artifacts, no unexpected RNFL thickness measurement results, and no unexpected classification results. RNFL thickness was found to be predictably decreased in glaucoma subjects. (This is a qualitative statement of expected behavior rather than a strict quantitative criterion).
Safety and Electrical ComplianceTested according to IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-1-4, and IEC 60825-1, meeting all requirements. Classified as a Class 1 laser product per 21 CFR §1040.10.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

  • Reproducibility and Repeatability: "human volunteers" - specific number not provided.
  • Normative Database (Acts as a reference/test for classification): 201 subjects of Caucasian origin.
    • Provenance: Enrolled in a patient registry (implied prospective data collection for the purpose of the database). All subjects were described as "normal" based on specific criteria.
    • Limitations noted: Sample size (201), particularly small for extreme age groups (<20 years, >70 years), Caucasian ethnicity only, and inclusion of refractive errors from +5 to -7 diopters.
  • Agreement Study with Predicate:
    • Healthy subjects: n=101
    • Glaucoma patients: n=183
    • Provenance: Not explicitly stated as retrospective or prospective, but implies direct examination for the study.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

  • Normative Database: "Screening for entry into the study included patient history and physical examination to determine if eyes were 'normal' by two ophthalmologists." No specific years of experience are provided, but "ophthalmologist" implies a qualified medical doctor specializing in ophthalmology.
  • Agreement Study with Predicate: No explicit mention of experts establishing ground truth; the study compared measurements between two devices. The classification of "glaucoma patients" would imply diagnosis by medical professionals.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

  • Normative Database: For determining "normality," two ophthalmologists made the determination. It's unclear if there was an adjudication process if their opinions differed ("2+0" if they agreed, no explicit mention of dispute resolution).
  • Other studies: Adjudication methods are not mentioned.

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

  • No MRMC study of human readers with vs. without AI assistance was reported. This device predates the widespread use of AI in medical imaging interpretation as we know it today. The "normative database" itself is a classification tool provided by the device, not an AI interpreting images for a human. It provides a color-coded classification based on measured RNFL thickness compared to the database.

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

  • Yes, in spirit, the normative database is a standalone "algorithm" for classification. The device automatically measures RNFL thickness and then classifies it against the stored normative database (e.g., as within or outside the 1st or 5th percentile). The performance of this classification is implicitly demonstrated by the database's construction, reproducibility of measurements, and the statement that RNFL thickness was "predictably decreased in glaucoma subjects." However, it is not presented with traditional standalone diagnostic performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, AUC).

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

  • Normative Database: Ground truth for "normality" was established by expert consensus/clinical examination by two ophthalmologists.
  • Agreement Study with Predicate: The "ground truth" for comparison was the measurements from an established predicate device (Stratus OCT). For classifying subjects as "healthy" or "glaucoma," the ground truth would have been clinical diagnosis.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • The document describes the normative database as being built from 201 subjects. This serves as the reference data against which subsequent patient measurements are compared for classification. In a machine learning context, this database acts effectively as the "training" or "reference" set for the classification rules (i.e., percentiles for normality).

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

  • For the normative database (which serves as the "training set" for the classification logic), the ground truth for "normality" was established by two ophthalmologists. Subjects were included if they had "no history of glaucoma, normal intraocular pressure, normal visual field, normal appearance of optic disc, etc." based on patient history and physical examination.

HRA+OCT includes a retinal nerve fiber layer thickness normative database, which is used to quantitatively compare the retinal nerve fiber layer in the human retina to a database of Caucasian normal subjects; the classification result is valid only for Caucasian subjects.

Substantial Equivalence Analysis

The Spectralis HRA+OCT has the same intended use and basic technological characteristics as the Heidelberg HRA2/OCT (K063191). The device has been updated to include new optical layout and components, new electronic components, new mechanical design, and new software including the addition of a normative database for RNFL thickness. These differences do not adversely affect safety or effectiveness, as verified with clinical and bench testing. Predicate devices incorporating similar technology features to the upgraded Spectralis device include: the STATUS OCT with Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer Normative Database (K030433) for the similarity in having a normative database, and the IRI Integrated Retinal Imager (K062295) for the autofluorescence intended use.

Performance - Bench Testing

The Spectralis HRA+OCT has been tested according to IEC 60601-1. IEC 60601-1-2. and IFC 60601-1-4 and was found to meet all requirements. The system is a laser product of Class 1 according to 21 CFR §1040.10 and complies with IEC 60825-1.

Accuracy testing was performed to determine the accuracy of measurements in the OCT images. as well as in the reflectance and angiography images. Results of this study confirmed accuracy of measured values compared to one another and compared to the true value, verifying that the performance of the Spectralis device is accurate and within stated specifications.

Performance - Clinical Evaluation

Reproducibility and Repeatability

A study in human volunteers was conducted to ensure Repeatability and Reproducibility of Spectralis HRA+OCT device measurements. All possible measures were evaluated for the Spectralis HRA+OCT. For reproducibility and repeatability, the coefficients of variation of the measured endpoints were within the specified range for this device.

Normative Database

The normative database includes 201 subjects of Caucasian origin enrolled in a patient registry. Demographically, the subjects included: 111 male, 90 female, mean (SD) age 48.2 ± 14.5 years, age range 18 to 78 years. Included subjects had no history of glaucoma. normal intraocular pressure, normal visual field, normal appearance of optic disc, etc. Screening for entry into the study included patient history and physical examination to determine if eyes were "normal" by. two ophthalmologists.

If subjects had a normal examination and no medical history of ocular pathology, images were acquired and measurements were then made using the Spectralis HRA+OCT device per Instructions for Use to measure RNFL thickness. Results were compiled to form a normative database of RNFL thickness. The database is limited by a sample size of 201 subjects (1 case in the <20 years age group, 13 cases in the>70 years age group), Caucasian ethnicity, and inclusion

Spectralis HRA+OCT 510(k) Summary

of subjects with refractive errors in the range from +5 diopters to -7 diopters.

Normative database limitations described above should be considered when examining subjects whose characteristics differ from those included in the database. RNFL thickness measurements made with the Spectralis HRA +OCT are compared to the normative database. For that purpose, an age-adjustment of the normal database is performed and percentile limits of the normal distribution are computed as follows.

For each subject in the normative database, RNFL thickness at each point along the circle scan, mean RNFL thickness along the whole circle scan (global), and mean RNFL thickness within certain sectors of the circle scan (temporal, temporal-superior, temporal-inferior, nasal, nasalsuperior, nasal-inferior) were measured. From these measurements, the age-adjusted percentiles of the database sample of 201 healthy Caucasians were determined. These age-adjusted percentiles form the basis for highlighting a result as being within or outside the normal limits (greater than the 5" or less than the 1st percentile of the database sample). The meaning of the nth percentile is that n percent of normal Caucasian subjects from the database sample have a RNFL thickness of less than or equal to this value.

Age-adjustment of the normal data is based on the linear regression of RNFL thickness vs. age of the normal subjects. Global RNFL thickness and RNFL thickness in the sectors temporal, temporal-superior, temporal-inferior, and nasal-inferior showed negative slopes (decrease of RNFL thickness) with age in the normal data and are adjusted. RNFL thicknesses in the sectors nasal and nasal-superior showed insignificant positive slopes with age in the normal data and are not adjusted.

As an example for the effect of age, the following tables show the values of the 1st and 5th percentile of RNFL thickness global and in the six sectors for ages 45 and 65 years. All values are in microns; the numbers in brackets represent the 95% confidence intervals of the respective percentiles.

Agreement Study with Predicate

An agreement study was conducted to compare RNFL classification results from Spectralis HRA+OCT to results from Stratus in normal and glaucoma eyes. Healthy subjects (n=101) and glaucoma patients (n=183) were examined using Spectralis and Stratus. Results of this analysis indicate that there is a good linear correlation between RNFL thickness measurements with the Spectralis and Stratus devices for healthy and for glaucoma subjects and in all measurement regions. The slopes and intercepts of the regression lines are in the neighborhood of 1 and 0, respectively, although they vary in the different measurement regions. Because of these differences, Spectralis and Stratus RNFL thickness measurement results should not be used interchangeably. (This is in agreement with the published literature.)

Studies in Eyes with Disease

Case Reports and Case Series of eyes from patients with various pathologies were examined with Spectralis HRA+OCT and these images show that no artifacts were found and there were no unexpected RNFL thickness measurement results or unexpected classification results. RNFL thickness was found to be predictably decreased in glaucoma subjects.
