AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a Diode Laser Hair Removal device. It does not contain information about the acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria in the context of an AI-powered device. This summary is focused on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, which is a different regulatory pathway than demonstrating the performance of a novel AI/ML-based device.

Specifically, the document states: "No clinical study is included in this submission." This means there is no study described that would involve test sets, ground truth, expert adjudication, or MRMC studies that are typically associated with evaluating AI-powered devices.

However, I can extract the information provided about the device's performance based on non-clinical testing for substantial equivalence:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

The document doesn't explicitly state "acceptance criteria" in the sense of predefined thresholds for a novel AI device's performance. Instead, it presents a comparison to a predicate device to demonstrate "substantial equivalence." The "acceptance criteria" here are implicitly that the proposed device performs comparably or within acceptable deviations from the predicate device based on non-clinical tests and safety standards.
