Study Details

  1. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):

    • Test Set Sample Sizes:
      • Planar Corrections: Simulated phantoms. Specific number of phantoms not provided.
      • AUC Calculations: Simulated data. Specific number of datasets not provided.
      • CT-derived physical density maps: Clinical patient data. Specific number of patient datasets not provided.
      • Dose Calculations:
        • Simulated phantoms (I-131 and Lu-177). Specific number of phantoms not provided.
        • Clinical patient data (I-131 and Lu-177). Specific number of patient datasets not provided.
      • Voxel S Value vs. Local Deposition Model: Not explicitly stated if this was done on simulated or clinical data, but it was for "all organs tested."
    • Data Provenance:
      • The text mentions "simulated phantoms based on the NEMA IEC Body Phantom, simulated phantoms based on patient data, and clinical patient data." This indicates a mix of synthetic and real-world data.
      • The country of origin is not specified, and it's unclear if the clinical data was retrospective or prospective.
  2. 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 for establishing ground truth for the test set. The comparisons are made against "commercially available solutions," "manual AUC calculations," and "published results," rather than direct expert consensus on ground truth data.
  3. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • The document does not specify any adjudication method. The performance is assessed by comparing the device's output to other established methods or reference data.
  4. 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. The study focuses on the standalone performance of the software's dosimetry calculations against established methods, not on human reader performance with or without AI assistance.
  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • Yes, a standalone performance study was done. The entire "Performance Data" section describes the evaluation of the MIM - MRT Dosimetry software's calculations (planar corrections, AUC, density maps, dose calculations) against other solutions, manual calculations, or published results. This is an assessment of the algorithm's performance in isolation.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

    • The ground truth varied:
      • Simulated phantoms: The "ground truth" for these would be the known, pre-programmed values or properties of the phantom.
      • Manual AUC calculations: This served as a reference for the AUC accuracy.
      • Published results: Used as a reference for the accuracy of CT-derived physical density maps.
      • Commercially available solution: Used as a benchmark for dose calculations, with corrections made to align mass.
      • Local Deposition Model values: Used as a reference for the Voxel S Value method comparison.
    • There is no mention of expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data being used directly as ground truth in these specific performance tests.
  7. The sample size for the training set:

    • The document does not provide information on the sample size used for any training set. The descriptions focus on verification and validation testing, implying the software's models were already developed.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

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

Performance Data

MIM Software Inc. has conducted performance and integration testing on MIM - MRT Dosimetry software with a comparison to a commercially available solution for internal radionuclide dosimetry. Standard quality control phantoms, simulated phantoms based on the NEMA IEC Body Phantom, simulated phantoms based on patient data, and clinical patient data were used for verification testing. All tests were performed using standard clinical acquisition and reconstruction protocols.

The accuracy of planar corrections for attenuation, scatter, and background were verified in simulated phantoms. The average errors were less than 12% for all regions except for the smallest region (2.6 cm) with 21% error for Lu-177 and 17% error for I-131 where the partial volume effect lowered accuracy as expected. In all cases, the software passed its performance requirements and met specifications

The accuracy of area-under-the curve (AUC) calculations were verified for different fitting options using simulated data with differences less than 3.1% compared to manual AUC calculations which met predefined acceptance criteria when considering the presence of Poison noise in the image data.
