Intended Use

The XRoad 4343 F MED, when used with a radiographic imaging system, is indicated for use in generating radiographic images of human anatomy for diagnostic X-ray procedures, wherever conventional screen-film (SF), digital radiography (DR), or computed radiography (CR) systems may be used. It is not intended for mammographic use.

Device Description

The XRpad 4343 F MED is a lightweight, cassette-sized, flat panel X-ray detector for digital radiography. The X-ray detector consists of an amorphous silicon flat panel with a directly deposited CsI:T1 scintillator and dedicated read-out, scan, and control electronics, all packaged in a carbon-fiber and aluminum enclosure. The outside dimensions of the detector are 460 mm × 15 mm, which fits into a standard X-ray cassette Bucky. The active area is 430 mm × 430mm at a pixel pitch of 100um. The detector can be integrated into a fixed room X-ray system to enable digital radiography.

AI/ML Overview

The PerkinElmer XRpad 4343 F MED Flat Panel Detector is a digital radiography device. The acceptance criteria and supporting study details are as follows:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The provided document does not explicitly list quantitative acceptance criteria in a dedicated table format with corresponding reported performance for the XRpad 4343 F MED. Instead, it relies on demonstrating equivalence to a predicate device (XRpad 4336 MED, K140551) through comparable non-clinical performance values and the applicability of the predicate's clinical data.

However, key comparative performance characteristics are presented:

MTF (Modulation Transfer Function)Comparable to predicate deviceComparable to predicate device

Differences noted for the proposed device (not framed as acceptance criteria but as distinguishing features from the predicate):

  • Pixel matrix: 3556 × 4320 pixels (Predicate) vs. 4318 × 4320 pixels (Proposed)
  • Active area: 355 mm × 430 mm (Predicate) vs. 430 mm × 430 mm (Proposed)
  • External dimensions: 384 mm × 460 mm × 15 mm (Predicate) vs. 460 mm × 460 mm × 15 mm (Proposed)
  • Weight: Approximately 4 kg (Predicate) vs. Approximately 5 kg (Proposed)
  • Communication interface: Gb Ethernet or 802.11n WiFi (Predicate) vs. Gb Ethernet, No wireless capability (Proposed)
  • Power: External power supply or battery (Predicate) vs. External power supply (Proposed)
  • Battery capacity: 53Wh (Predicate) vs. No battery option (Proposed)

The foundational acceptance criterion is "Substantial Equivalence" to the predicate device, demonstrated by showing that the proposed device has comparable performance and operational standards, produces images of equivalent diagnostic quality, and that potential hazards have been studied and controlled.

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

  • The document states that a new clinical study was not required for the XRpad 4343 F MED device.
  • Instead, the predicate device, XRpad 4336 MED, was cleared using clinical data derived from testing to support K122495 (XRD 1622 AP3 MED).
  • The document implies that the "clinical study data submitted in K122495" served as the basis for the clinical evaluation, but it does not provide details on the sample size or data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective nature) for K122495. It only states that this data was deemed "applicable" to the XRpad 4336 MED and, through non-clinical testing, also applicable to the XRpad 4343 F MED.

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

  • The document does not provide information on the number of experts or their qualifications, as it refers to a prior 510(k) submission (K122495) for clinical data.

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

  • The document does not provide information on the adjudication method, as it refers to a prior 510(k) submission (K122495) for clinical data.

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 comparative effectiveness study was done or reported in this 510(k) summary for the XRpad 4343 F MED, nor does it involve AI assistance. This device is a flat panel x-ray detector, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool. The document relies on demonstrating non-inferiority/equivalence to a predicate physical device.

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

  • This question is not applicable as the XRpad 4343 F MED is a hardware device (flat panel detector) for capturing radiographic images, not a standalone algorithm.

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

  • The document does not explicitly state the type of ground truth used for the clinical data referenced from K122495.
  • However, given the nature of radiographic imaging devices, it is highly probable that the ground truth for the clinical data in K122495 would have been established through expert radiological interpretation and potentially confirmed by pathology or clinical outcomes, but this is not confirmed in the provided text.

8. The sample size for the training set:

  • The document does not mention any training set for the XRpad 4343 F MED, as it is a hardware device and not an algorithm requiring a training set in the AI/machine learning sense.

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

  • This question is not applicable as no training set (in the context of algorithms) is mentioned or used for this device.

Summary of Studies:

The proposed new device and the XRpad predicate device utilize similar technology and materials, are similar in design and construction, and have the same intended use. The construction and physical characteristics of the PerkinElmer XRpad 4343 F MED compared to the predicate PerkinElmer XRpad 4336 MED are similar. The difference is related to the increase in dimensions and does not impact image quality.

The PerkinElmer XRpad 4343 F MED flat panel detector has successfully completed internal non-clinical testing, complies with standards and regulations such as UL and IEC. A new clinical study was not required for the XRpad 4343 MED device. The predicate device, XRpad 4336 MED, was cleared using clinical data derived from testing to support K122495 (XRD 1622 AP3 MED) and applicable to the predicate device. The XRpad 4343 MED device differences do not invalidate the applicability of the clinical study data submitted in K122495. Through non-clinical testing, we have demonstrated the clinical data collected with the (XRD 1622 AP3 MED) in K122495 is also applicable to the XRpad 4343 MED device as it was applicable for the XRpad 4336 MED device.

Summary of Design Control and Risk Management:

The XRpad 4343 F MED flat panel X-ray detector is a modification of the XRpad 4336 MED (K140551). The 43 cm × 43 cm XRpad 4343 F MED, as compared to the 43 cm × 36 cm XRpad 4336 MED, is larger in one dimension, is heavier, and does not have a battery, or wireless capability.

The risks and hazardous impacts of the device modification were analyzed by FMEA methodology. The specific risk control and protective measures to mitigate the risks from the modification were reviewed and implemented as part of product design. The overall assessment concluded that all identified risks and hazardous conditions were successfully mitigated and accepted.

Summary of Non-Clinical Data:

To demonstrate the equivalence of the PerkinElmer XRpad 4343 F MED to the predicate device, PerkinElmer has performed internal non-clinical testing and demonstrated compliance with accepted standards and regulations such as UL and IEC following the non-clinical considerations outlined in the Guidance for the Submission of 510(k)'s for Solid State X-ray Imaging Devices, August, 1999. The non-clinical testing was conducted and demonstrated the main physical values of the XRpad 4343 F MED such as DQE and MTF are comparable to the predicate device. The non-clinical performance testing conducted and resulting data demonstrate substantial equivalence.

{7}------------------------------------------------

Substantial Equivalency:

The proposed device and predicate device (XRpad 4336 MED flat panel detector) both utilize similar technology and materials, are similar in design and construction, and have been shown to produce images of equivalent diagnostic quality. Both devices are intended for use in generating radiographic images of human anatomy for diagnostic Xray procedures, wherever conventional screen-film (SF), digital radiography (DR), or computed radiography (CR) systems may be used. The devices are not intended for mammographic use. Both devices produce digital images which can be transmitted to imaging software of the X-ray unit.

Conclusion:

Similar to the predicate device, the XRpad 4343 F MED has comparable performance and operational standards. Potential hazards have been studied and controlled by a Risk Management Plan. The non-clinical software verification and validation test results demonstrate that the PerkinElmer XRpad 4343 F MED complies with international and FDA recognized consensus standards and meets the acceptance criteria and is adequate for its intended use.

Based on the information supplied in this 510(k) PerkinElmer concludes, the XRpad 4343 F MED is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed device. XRpad 4336 MED (K140551) in terms of safety and effectiveness.
