The provided text describes the Aquilion ONE Vision with FIRST 1.0 (CCRS-001A) CT system and its iterative reconstruction algorithm, FIRST 1.0. Here's an analysis of its acceptance criteria and the supporting study:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
| Acceptance Criteria (Stated Goal of FIRST 1.0) | Reported Device Performance (Summary) |
|---|---|
| Reduce exposure dose | Up to 82.2% dose reduction compared to FBP for equivalent low contrast detectability. |
| Improve high contrast spatial resolution | Improved spatial resolution over FBP. |
| Maintain and/or improve image quality | Equivalent low contrast detectability to FBP with dose reduction. Visual reduction of streak artifacts and improved image SD values in shoulders compared to AIDR 3D. Diagnostic quality images (visually confirmed by Radiologist). |
| No significant artifacts/missing anatomical structures | Visually confirmed (by Radiologist) that no significant artifacts and missing anatomical structures occur. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Quantitative Dose Reduction Evaluation: A simulated body phantom (MITA-FDA phantom with a body ellipse surrounding it) was used. This indicates a phantom study, not human data.
- Artifact Reduction: A body phantom was used for truncation and streak artifact assessment. This indicates a phantom study.
- Image Quality Check: Existing clinical data was used. The specific sample size of clinical cases is not provided. The provenance of this clinical data (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective) is not specified.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications
- For the "Image Quality Check" using existing clinical data, one American Board Certified Radiologist reviewed a representative diagnostic image set for chest, abdomen, and pelvis exams. Their specific years of experience are not provided, only that they are "American Board Certified."
- For the quantitative dose reduction and artifact reduction studies, phantoms were used, so expert ground truth establishment for patient images was not directly applicable.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- For the image quality check, with only one American Board Certified Radiologist reviewing images, there was no adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) described.
- For the phantom studies, the assessment was based on objective measurements (e.g., model observer evaluation, image SD values) and visual comparison to AIDR 3D, and thus, an adjudication method for experts was not applicable.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
- No Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was explicitly described. The document mentions a single radiologist's review of diagnostic images and phantom studies. No comparison of human reader performance with and without AI assistance is presented.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
- Yes, a standalone performance assessment was conducted for FIRST 1.0.
- Quantitative Dose Reduction Evaluation: This was performed using a "model observer evaluation" on a phantom, indicating an algorithm-only assessment of low contrast detectability.
- Image Quality Evaluation (Phantom Studies): Various CT image quality metrics (spatial resolution, CT number accuracy, contrast-to-noise ratio, noise properties, uniformity, slice sensitivity profile, low contrast detectability, standard deviation of noise) were measured using phantoms, which are objective algorithm-only assessments.
- Artifact Reduction (Phantom Studies): Objective measures like image SD values and visual comparisons (implied to be algorithm output comparison) were made.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Phantom Measurements: For quantitative dose reduction, spatial resolution, CT number accuracy, CNR, noise properties, uniformity, SSP, low contrast detectability, and artifact reduction, the ground truth was derived from objective measurements on phantoms (e.g., MITA-FDA phantom, body phantoms).
- Expert Visual Confirmation: For the "Image quality check" using clinical data, the ground truth for "diagnostic quality" and "no significant artifacts and missing anatomical structures" was established by visual confirmation from a single American Board Certified Radiologist.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- The document does not provide any information regarding the sample size used for training the FIRST 1.0 algorithm.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
- The document does not provide any information regarding how the ground truth for the training set was established.

17. TESTING
Risk analysis and verification/validation testing conducted through bench testing are included in this submission which demonstrates that the established specifications for the device have been met.
Image Quality Evaluation
CT image quality metrics were performed, utilizing phantoms, which demonstrated that the subject device is substantially equivalent to or demonstrates an improvement to the predicate device with regard to spatial resolution, CT number accuracy, contrast-to-noise ratio, noise properties, uniformity, slice sensitivity profile, low contrast detectability and standard deviation of noise. Studies were also conducted to demonstrate equivalence and/or improvements in CT number accuracy in water phantoms and artifact reduction using body phantoms.
Quantitative Dose Reduction Evaluation
The subject device demonstrated a dose reduction claim of up to 82.2% compared to filtered back projection as demonstrated by a model observer evaluation which showed that equivalent low contrast detectability to FBP (range from 0.6 - 0.686) can be achieved with 51.7% to 82.2% less dose using FIRST1.0 at Standard setting for thin (0.5 mm) reconstruction slice thickness in simulated body phantom (MITA-FDA phantom with a body ellipse surrounding it).
Artifact Reduction
For truncation artifacts, a body phantom was scanned at 25/50/150 mA and 80/160/320 rows and FIRST reconstruction was performed. It was confirmed that the image SD values in the shoulders have been improved and streak artifacts have been visually reduced, as compared with AIDR 3D. For streak artifacts, a body phantom was scanned at 25/50/150 mA and 80/160/320 rows and FIRST reconstruction was performed. It was confirmed that the image SD values in the shoulders have been improved and streak artifacts have been visually reduced, as compared with AIDR 3D. Image quality check was performed using the existing clinical data. Images obtained with FIRST were compared with those obtained with FBP and AIDR 3D. It was visually confirmed that no significant artifacts and missing anatomical structures occur in FIRST.
{6}------------------------------------------------
Representative diagnostic images, reviewed by an American Board Certified Radiologist, including chest, abdomen and pelvis exams were also obtained using the subject device which demonstrates that the device produces images of diagnostic quality and; therefore, performs as intended.
