Intended Use

The EM-4000 Specular Microscope is a non-contact ophthalmic microscope, optical pachymeter, and camera intended for examination of the corneal endothelium and for measurement of the thickness of the cornea.

Device Description

The Tomey EM-4000 Specular Microscope is a non-contact ophthalmic microscope and camera intended for corneal endothelium imaging. Its operating principle is based on the Specular optical principle. This device is used for imaging the corneal endothelium. The EM-4000 analyzes and displays data such as cell number, cell density, coefficient of variation and percent hexagonality. When photographing the corneal endothelium, the equipment performs the alignment and automatically focuses by capturing the reflected light from the patient's eye with the CCD camera. Infrared LEDs are used as the light source for the alignment. Operation with the iovstick also makes it possible to focus manually. The green LED light radiates to the cornea, and the endothelium image is captured with the CCD camera by the reflected light from the cornea. The endothelium images are stored in internal memory.

Furthermore, the EM-4000 is able to measure the central corneal thickness. The corneal endothelium is photographed first followed by measuring the central corneal thickness. The infrared LED light for measurement of corneal thickness radiates to the cornea through the objective lens for photographing the cornea, and the central corneal thickness can be calculated by measuring the distance on the optical line sensor between the reflected light from front surface and back surface of cornea.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study detailed in the provided document:

The document describes the Tomey EM-4000 Specular Microscope, a non-contact ophthalmic microscope, optical pachymeter, and camera intended for examination of the corneal endothelium and for measurement of the thickness of the cornea. The study aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device, the Konan Medical, Inc. Cellchek XL (K120264).

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria are not explicitly stated as numerical thresholds in this document for all parameters beyond pachymetry. Instead, the study aims to show "agreement, accuracy and precision" with the predicate device, demonstrating substantial equivalence. For pachymetry, a specific accuracy is mentioned.

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance (Tomey EM-4000 vs. Konan Cellchek XL)
Pachymetry Accuracy (non-clinical)± 10 microns (Confirmed in non-clinical performance summary)
Endothelial Cell Density (CD) AgreementMean difference for CD: -6.49% (SD 5.648%). 95% LOA: (-413.6, 74.2). Correlation (R): 0.9634.
Coefficient of Variation (CV) AgreementMean difference for CV: 1.65% (SD 11.304%). Correlation (R): 0.6226.
Percent Hexagonality (HEX) AgreementMean difference for % HEX: 0.70% (SD 15.091%). Correlation (R): 0.5549.
Central Corneal Thickness (CCT) AgreementMean difference for CCT: -3.11% (SD 3.995%). Correlation (R): 0.8561.
Precision (Repeatability & Reproducibility)For all variables (CD, CV, HEX, CCT), the Tomey EM-4000 showed slightly less variability compared to the Konan Cellchek XL (e.g., lower Repeatability and Reproducibility SDs, and Repeatability/Reproducibility Ratios < 1). This indicates better or equivalent precision.
Electrical SafetyComplies with ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1.
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)Complies with IEC 60601-1-2.
Optical Radiation SafetyComplies with ISO 15004-1 and ISO 15004-2.
Overall Substantial Equivalence to PredicateThe study concluded that the Tomey EM-4000 (core method) and the Konan CellChek XL (center method) were substantially equivalent for the parameters measured in terms of agreement and precision.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Test Set Sample Size:
    • Agreement portion (specular microscope variables): 67 subjects
    • Agreement portion (Central Corneal Thickness - CCT): 68 subjects
    • Precision portion: 44 subjects
  • Data Provenance: The study was a prospective clinical study. The country of origin is not explicitly stated, but the manufacturer is Tomey Corporation from Japan, and the contact person is in Andover, MA, USA, suggesting it could be a multi-site or US-based study, but this is not confirmed.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

The document mentions that the clinical study results for the device measurements using the Core Method of analysis were based upon the use of a "reading center." However, it does not specify the number of experts or their specific qualifications (e.g., "radiologist with 10 years of experience"). This information is missing from the provided text.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The document does not explicitly state an adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1). It mentions a "reading center" was used for the "Core Method of analysis." This implies that images were processed and analyzed, likely by trained readers or technicians at this center, to derive the measurements (CD, CV, %HEX). The comparison is then made between the Tomey EM-4000's results and those derived from the predicate device by this reading center. It's not clear if there was a multi-reader consensus process or a single reader approach for the predicate device's "ground truth" derived by the reading center.

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, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done.
  • This study is comparing a new device (Tomey EM-4000) to a predicate device (Konan CellChek XL) to demonstrate substantial equivalence based on their direct measurements of corneal parameters. It is not an AI-assisted human reader study; rather, it is a direct device-to-device comparison. Therefore, there's no reported effect size on how human readers improve with AI assistance.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was Done

The study primarily evaluates the standalone performance of the Tomey EM-4000 as a diagnostic device by comparing its measurements to those obtained from a predicate device. Both devices are instruments that perform measurements directly. The document states, "The EM-4000 analyzes and displays data such as cell number, cell density, coefficient of variation and percent hexagonality." This implies autonomous algorithmic processing of the captured images without continuous human intervention during the measurement process, although human setup/operation is expected. The "Core Method of analysis" mentioned for the reading center likely refers to the standard analytical algorithms used for both devices' outputs. So, yes, it's essentially a standalone device performance comparison.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" in this study is the measurements obtained from the predicate device, the Konan CellChek XL. The objective is to demonstrate that the Tomey EM-4000 produces measurements that are in agreement with and precise relative to the established predicate device, thus establishing substantial equivalence. It is not pathology, outcomes data, or an independent expert consensus on the true biological value, but rather a comparative truth against a legally marketed device.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not provide information on a training set for the EM-4000. This is typical for a device validation study where the algorithm is presumably already developed and "trained" (if machine learning is involved) prior to clinical evaluation. The clinical study described here functions as a validation/test set to demonstrate comparative performance.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

As no training set information is provided, there is no information on how its ground truth was established.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The Tomey EM-4000 Specular Microscope is a non-contact ophthalmic microscope and camera intended for corneal endothelium imaging. Its operating principle is based on the Specular optical principle. This device is used for imaging the corneal endothelium. The EM-4000 analyzes and displays data such as cell number, cell density, coefficient of variation and percent hexagonality. When photographing the corneal endothelium, the equipment performs the alignment and automatically focuses by capturing the reflected light from the patient's eye with the CCD camera. Infrared LEDs are used as the light source for the alignment. Operation with the iovstick also makes it possible to focus manually. The green LED light radiates to the cornea, and the endothelium image is captured with the CCD camera by the reflected light from the cornea. The endothelium images are stored in internal memory.

Furthermore, the EM-4000 is able to measure the central corneal thickness. The corneal endothelium is photographed first followed by measuring the central corneal thickness. The infrared LED light for measurement of corneal thickness radiates to the cornea through the objective lens for photographing the cornea, and the central corneal thickness can be calculated by measuring the distance on the optical line sensor between the reflected light from front surface and back surface of cornea.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

The Tomey EM-4000 Specular Microscope is substantially equivalent to the Konan Medical, Inc. Cellchek XL (K120264). The Tomey EM-4000 Specular Microscope has the same intended use and indications for use, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as the previously cleared predicate device. The Tomey EM-4000 Specular Microscope and the predicate device are both non-contact ophthalmic microscopes, optical pachymeters, and cameras intended for examination of the corneal endothelium and for measurement of the thickness of the cornea.

The EM-4000 and the Konan Cellchek XL both utilize the general specular optical principle for imaging endothelial cells and performing pachymetry. The two devices use different light sources for measurement and focusing. However, compliance with ISO 15004-2 is documented. The EM-4000 uses a green LED for measurement and an infrared LED for focusing while the predicate device uses a Xe tube flash lamp for measurement and halogen lamp for focusing.

{5}------------------------------------------------

Both devices measure cell number, cell density, coefficient of variation and percent hexagonality. The clinical performance data demonstrates the substantial equivalence of the EM-4000 to the Konan predicate device. Both the EM-4000 and the Konan Cellchek XL include an optical pachymeter with an accuracy of + 10 microns. Bench testing comparing the EM-4000 pachymetry functionality to the predicate device is provided. The non-clinical and clinical performance data demonstrated the substantial equivalence of the pachymetry measurements. For the measurements assessed, the Tomey EM-4000 Specular Microscope and predicate device results were found to be substantially equivalent.

NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The performance testing conducted using the EM-4000 verified that the device operates as intended. The pachymetry functionality was evaluated and the measurement accuracy of + 10 microns was confirmed.

Additionally, the EM-4000 was subjected to electrical safety testing in accordance with ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing in accordance with IEC 60601-1-2, and optical radiation safety testing in accordance with ISO 15004-1 and ISO 15004-2.

CLINICAL PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

A prospective clinical study was conducted to assess the agreement, accuracy and precision of the EM-4000 by comparing results across three machines/operators to those obtained with the predicate device, the Konan Cellchek XL. Three populations were studied: young (18-28 years of age) and adult (29-80 vears of age) healthy subjects and pathologic adult eves (29-80 vears of age).

There were 70 subjects enrolled in the study: 25 in the non-pathologic voung eye population, 23 in the non-pathologic adult eye population, and 22 in the pathologic adult eye population. Of those, 67 were included in the effectiveness population for the agreement portion of the study for the specular microscope variables. For the central corneal thickness (CCT) variable, 68 subjects were included in the effectiveness population.

Of the 70 enrolled subjects, 44 were included in the population for the precision portion of the study: 14 in the non-pathologic young eye population, 15 in the non-pathologic adult eye population, and 15 in the pathologic adult eye population.

The agreement and variability of the analysis methods was obtained using a sample that included virtually no eyes with predicate device measurements of

{6}------------------------------------------------

Percent Hexagonality <45, Coefficient of Variation >0.40, or Cell Density <1900. Agreement and variability of the analysis methods is not known for eyes with parameters beyond these values.

The clinical study results for the device measurements using the Core Method of analysis were based upon the use of a reading center

Endothelial Cell Density

For the Core Method, the mean difference for endothelial cell density (CD) was -6.49%. . The mean differences for endothelial cell density are illustrated on the Bland Altman plot (Figure 1). Plots of the device differences by the CellChek XL value are presented (Figure 2). The Deming regression lines showed an associated correlation value of 0.9634 (Figure 3). Table 1 provides a summary of the agreement data for all subjects with the Core Method.

Abbreviations: SD = standard deviation

N represents the total number of subjects in each eye population in the precision and agreement cohort. If any variance component was negative, it was reported as 0. The repeatability limit is 2.8 times the repeatability standard deviation, which is the square root of the residual within subject variance component. The reproducibility limit is 2.8 times the reproducibility standard deviation, which is the square root of the variance components of operator+device, operator+device x subject interaction, and residual within subject.

Overall, within eye/subject variability results were reasonably similar for both machines for the parameters measured, as seen in Table 2. The precision of the two devices was assessed with repeatability and reproducibility measures: the first within a given subject and the second

within and among configurations. With regard to overall precision, using the core method, the largest component of variation was the subject to subject variation. The EM-4000 machine was slightly less variable than the CellChek XL machine for all variables: CD, CV, %HEX and CCT.

In summary, for the parameters measured the agreement and precision results of the Tomey EM-4000 core method and the Konan CellChek XL center method were found to be substantially equivalent.

CONCLUSIONS

The Tomey EM-4000 has the same intended use and indications for use, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as the previously cleared predicate. The differences between the subject device and the predicate device have been assessed in a human clinical trial which found agreement, accuracy and precision between the two devices. Therefore, the Tomey EM-4000 and the predicate device were determined to be substantially equivalent.
