Intended Use
X-ray Bone Densitometer designed to estimate the bone mineral density of patients when medically indicated by their physicians. - Provides an estimate of bone mineral density at various anatomical sites (Spine, Femur, Forearm). These values can then be compared to an adult reference population at the sole discretion of the physician. - Provides an assessment of relative risk based on the patient's T-score value using the categories of fracture risk defined by the World Health Organization (WHO). - Provides an assessment of 10-year fracture risk using WHO FRAX model. - Provides a standardized bone density report using data from the densitometer and physician-generated assessments based on the patient's demographics, which can assist the physician in communicating scan results to the patient and the patient's referring physician.
Device Description
The Aria X-ray Bone Densitometer is designed to be a value product version of the predicate device, the Prodigy (K982267 and K161682). Like its predicate Prodigy device, the proposed Aria device is composed of a scanner and a computer that runs the software. The scanner comprises the x-ray source and detector, the patient scan table, the mechanical drive system, and the lowest level portions of the control system. The scanner is in communication with the computer, which is a standard PC. The computer runs the enCORE software, and thus controls the scanner, acquires scan data from the scanner, stores and analyzes the data, and interacts with the human operator. Aria X-ray Bone Densitometer functions with the same software as the one that is FDA cleared under GE Lunar DXA Bone Densitometers with enCORE version 17 (K161682).

No
The summary does not mention AI or ML, and the device description and performance studies focus on standard bone densitometry techniques and comparisons to predicate devices.

No
The device is used for diagnostic purposes (estimating bone mineral density, assessing fracture risk) and does not directly provide therapy or treatment.

Yes

Explanation: The device is described as an "X-ray Bone Densitometer designed to estimate the bone mineral density of patients" and provides "an assessment of relative risk" and "10-year fracture risk," all of which are diagnostic functions. It also generates reports to "assist the physician in communicating scan results."

No

The device description explicitly states that the Aria X-ray Bone Densitometer is composed of a scanner and a computer that runs the software. The scanner includes hardware components like the x-ray source, detector, patient scan table, and mechanical drive system. Therefore, it is not a software-only device.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to examine specimens outside of the body.
  • Device Function: The Aria X-ray Bone Densitometer uses X-rays to estimate bone mineral density within the patient's body. It is a medical imaging device that performs a diagnostic procedure directly on the patient.
  • Intended Use: The intended use describes estimating bone mineral density of patients when medically indicated by their physicians. This is a diagnostic assessment performed on the living patient.
  • Device Description: The description details a scanner with an x-ray source and detector, a patient scan table, and a computer for data acquisition and analysis. This is consistent with an in-vivo imaging system, not an in-vitro testing device.

Therefore, the Aria X-ray Bone Densitometer is a medical device used for in-vivo diagnostic imaging, not an in-vitro diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Bench Testing: Precision and Accuracy
During product development, precision and accuracy tests are performed over a wide range of phantoms to cover the variation in human subjects. Repeat measurements on a phantom are performed to verify precision using standard statistical analysis of the data. Similarly, a set of phantoms with different BMD and tissue composition properties is measured to verify accuracy by showing an excellent correlation to previously released Prodigy product. The method used consist of verifying BMD precision and accuracy for various scan sites by measuring phantom set and calculate mean, standard deviation, %CV, and correlation to expected values to ensure clinical performance requirements are met. The acceptance criteria used are as follows for all sites (AP Spine BMD, Femur BMD and Forearm BMD): Precision 0.95. The results of the bench testing provided in the submission demonstrate that Aria can accurately and precisely estimate bone density.
Design verification and validation testing was performed to confirm that the safety and effectiveness of the device has not been affected. The test plans and results have been executed with acceptable results.

The subject of this premarket submission, Aria, did not require
clinical studies to support substantial equivalence. |
| Determination of
Substantial
Equivalence: (Cont.) | Bench Testing: Precision and Accuracy
During product development, precision and accuracy tests are
performed over a wide range of phantoms to cover the variation in
human subjects. Repeat measurements on a phantom are
performed to verify precision using standard statistical analysis of
the data. Similarly, a set of phantoms with different BMD and
tissue composition properties is measured to verify accuracy by
showing an excellent correlation to previously released Prodigy
product. The method used consist of verifying BMD precision and
accuracy for various scan sites by measuring phantom set and
calculate mean, standard deviation, %CV, and correlation to
expected values to ensure clinical performance requirements are
met. The acceptance criteria used are as follows for all sites (AP
Spine BMD, Femur BMD and Forearm BMD):
Precision 0.95 The results of the bench testing provided in the submission
demonstrate that Aria can accurately and precisely estimate bone
density.
Design verification and validation testing was performed to
confirm that the safety and effectiveness of the device has not
been affected. The test plans and results have been executed with
acceptable results. |
| Conclusion: | The proposed Aria device intended use / indications for use are a
subset of the predicate Prodigy device intended use / indications
for use.
The differences in the hardware do not result in any new potential
safety risks.
Aria has the same technological characteristics, and performs as
well as the predicate Prodigy device currently legally marketed on
the US market.
After analyzing design verification and validation testing it is the
conclusion of GE Healthcare that Aria is as safe, as effective, and
its performance is substantially equivalent to the predicate Prodigy
device. |
