Yes
The summary explicitly states that the device "mentions AI and deep learning" and is named "ProFound™ AI V2.1 Software".
No
The device is a computer-assisted detection and diagnosis (CAD) software that assists physicians in identifying abnormalities, but it does not directly provide therapy or treatment.
Yes
The "Intended Use" section explicitly states that the software is "a computer-assisted detection and diagnosis (CAD) software device." The description further clarifies that it "assists interpreting physicians in identifying soft tissue densities and calcifications that may be confirmed or dismissed."
Yes
The device is described as "ProFound™ AI V2.1 Software" and its function is to process digital breast tomosynthesis images to assist interpreting physicians. The description focuses solely on the software's capabilities and performance in analyzing image data, with no mention of accompanying hardware components or hardware-specific functions beyond processing images from compatible DBT systems.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the software is used concurrently by interpreting physicians while reading digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) exams. It assists in identifying soft tissue densities and calcifications in medical images.
- Device Description: The description reinforces that the software detects and marks areas in DBT images and provides scores based on the algorithm's confidence.
- Input Modality: The input is digital breast tomosynthesis slices, which are medical images.
- Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is the breast, which is a part of the human body being imaged.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on metrics like Sensitivity, Specificity, and False Positive rates based on the analysis of medical images.
IVDs are typically used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health. This device operates on medical images acquired from the body, not on biological specimens. It's a medical image analysis software, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

Device Description
ProFound AI V2.1 detects malignant soft-tissue densities and calcifications in digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) images. ProFound AI V2.1 has the same performance with the DBT systems cleared for use with ProFound AI V2; furthermore, it provides support for additional DBT systems. The ProFound AI V.2.1 Software allows a radiologist to quickly identify suspicious soft tissue densities (masses, architectural distortions and asymmetries) and calcifications by marking the detected areas in the tomosynthesis images. When the ProFound AI V2.1 marks are displayed, the marks will appear as overlays on the 3D tomosynthesis images. For 3D tomosynthesis cases and depending on the functionality offered by the viewing/reading application, the ProFound AI V2.1 marks may also serve as a navigation tool for users because each mark can be linked to the tomosynthesis slice where the detection was identified. Each detected region is also assigned a "score" that corresponds to the ProFound AI V2.1 algorithm's confidence that the detected region is malignant (certainty of finding). Each case is also assigned a case score that corresponds to the ProFound AI V2.1 algorithm's confidence that a case is malignant. The certainty of finding scores are represented as an integer in range of 0 to 100 to indicate the CAD confidence that the detected region or case is malignant. The higher the certainty of finding or case score, the more likely the detected region or case is to be malignant.

offered by the viewing/reading application, the ProFound AI V2.1 marks may also serve as a navigation tool for users because each mark can be linked to the tomosynthesis slice where the detection was identified. Each detected region is also assigned a "score" that corresponds to the ProFound AI V2.1 algorithm's confidence that the detected region is malignant (certainty of finding). Each case is also assigned a case score that corresponds to the ProFound AI V2.1 algorithm's confidence that a case is malignant. The certainty of finding scores are represented as an integer in range of 0 to 100 to indicate the CAD confidence that the detected region or case is malignant. The higher the certainty of finding or case score, the more likely the detected region or case is to be malignant.
Technical Characteristics:
Lesion Detection
ProFound AI 2.1 Software detects soft tissue densities (masses, architectural distortions and asymmetries) and calcifications in the 3D digital breast tomosynthesis or images. The ProFound AI 2.1 algorithm uses deep learning technology to process feature computations and uses pattern recognition to identify suspicious breast lesions appearing as soft tissue densities or clusters of calcifications. Each detected region is identified or represented by marking the contour of the lesion in the 3D tomosynthesis slice or 2D digital mammography image where it was detected.
Certainty of Finding and Case Scores
Certainty of Finding scores are relative scores assigned to each detected region and a Case Score is assigned to each case regardless of the number of detected regions. Certainty of Finding and Case Scores are computed by the ProFound AI 2.1 algorithm and represent the algorithm's confidence that a specific finding or case is malignant. The scores are represented on a 0% to 100% scale. Higher scores represent a higher algorithm confidence that a finding or case is malignant. Lower scores represent a lower algorithm confidence that a finding or case is malignant. The scores are based on a population with 50% prevalence of cancer and should be interpreted as the probability of the finding or case correctly being identified as malignant in a population of 50% cancers and 50% non-cancers. The scores serve as a guide to interpreting physicians to aid in determining if a suspicious finding or case needs further work-up. These scores are not intended to be the clinically used "probability of malignancy". Certainty of Finding and Case Scores are not calibrated to the prevalence in the intended use population or to the prevalence in the pivotal reader study outlined in the Assessment of Clinical Performance Data section, and consequently, the Certainty of Finding and Case Scores are in general higher than the actual probability of malignancy in an intended use population with less than 50% prevalence. These scores
5
represent a relative level of concern or level of suspicion because they do not represent an absolute clinical probability of malignancy.

Summary of Indications for Use:
The "Indications for Use" remain unchanged from the Predicate UNMODIFIED Device ProFound™ AI V2 (PowerLook® Tomo Detection V2 Software).
Summary of Technological Characteristic
The technological characteristics of Modified Device, ProFound AI V2.1 remain unchanged from Unmodified Device ProFound™ AI V2 (PowerLook® Tomo Detection V2 Software) as the predicate. Per 21 CFR 892.2090, both devices are radiological computer assisted detection and diagnostic software intended to aid in the detection, localization, and characterization of disease specific findings on acquired medical images. The outputs of both
8
devices serve as a secondary or concurrent read and not a primary read. The output is used to inform the clinical user (who themselves make the primary diagnostic and patient management decisions) and will not replace the clinical expertise and judgment of the clinical user.
General Safety and Effectiveness Concerns
The device labeling contains instructions for use and any necessary cautions and warnings to provide for safe and effective use of this device. Risk management is ensured via a risk analysis which is used to identify and mitigate potential hazards. Any potential hazards are controlled via software development, verification and validation testing. In addition, general controls of the FD&C Act, and special controls established for Radiological Computer Assisted Detection and Diagnosis Software are in place to further mitigate any safety and or effectiveness risks.
Assessment of Non-Clinical Performance Data
ProFound AI V2.1 has been verified and validated according to iCAD's design control processes. All supporting documentation has been included in this 510(k) Premarket Notification. Verification activity included unit, integration, and regression testing was performed. Validation testing included System testing was performed according to Standalone Hologic Comparison Protocol 0074-5007A, which is the same protocol used to support the 510(k) clearance of the original ProFound AI V2 device. Lastly, ProFound AI V2.1 is deployed on a DICOM platform that has been successfully tested for clinical network integration.
Standalone Performance:
ProFound AI for DBT V2.1 Siemens Standard Screening Population Dataset The ProFound AI for DBT V2.1 Siemens Standard Screening Population Standalone Study was executed to determine the performance of ProFound AI for DBT V2.1 with Siemens Standard Reconstruction DBT images for comparison with the baseline performance of ProFound AI for DBT V2.0 with Hologic DBT images. Standalone testing was performed on tomosynthesis slices only. Sensitivity was measured on Cancer cases with at least 2 views per breast. Specificity and FP rates were measured on bilateral 2-view Non-Cancer cases (2 standard views for the left breast and 2 standard views for the right breast). Sensitivity, Specificity, and false positive rate per tomosynthesis image volume were measured at the operating point. The standalone data set consisted of 694 Siemens Standard Reconstruction cases (238 cancer, 456 non-cancer) and were used to run the tests. A stratified bootstrap procedure was used to estimate performance over a screening patient population. The bootstrap procedure limits the number of cases in a particular category when computing performance measures. The purpose of the standalone study was to assess the standalone
9
performance of ProFound AI for DBT V2.1 with Siemens Standard Reconstruction DBT on a screening population.
Results from the standalone study showed that Case-Level Sensitivity, Lesion-Level Sensitivity, FP Rate in Non-Cancer Cases, and Specificity met design specifications. The detailed results are in the User Manual.

Standalone testing was performed on tomosynthesis slices only. Sensitivity was measured on Cancer cases with at least 2 views per breast. Specificity and FP rates were measured on bilateral 2-view Non-Cancer cases (2 standard views for the left breast and 2 standard views for the right breast). Sensitivity, Specificity, and false positive rate per tomosynthesis image volume were measured at the operating point. The standalone data set consisted of a total of 322 Siemens Empire Reconstruction cases (140 cancer, 182 non-cancer) and were used to run the tests. A stratified bootstrap procedure was used to estimate performance over a screening patient population. The bootstrap procedure limits the number of cases in a particular category when computing performance measures. The purpose of the standalone study was to assess the standalone performance of ProFound AI for DBT V2.1 with Siemens Empire Reconstruction DBT on a screening population.
Results from the standalone study showed that Case-Level Sensitivity, Lesion-Level Sensitivity, FP Rate in Non-Cancer Cases, and Specificity met design specifications. The detailed results are in the User Manual.
Standalone Hologic Comparison Test Results:
ProFound AI for DBT V2.1 with Siemens Standard Reconstruction DBT A comparison was made of the standalone performance of ProFound AI for DBT V2.0 with Hologic DBT images to the performance of ProFound AI for DBT V2.1 with Siemens Standard Reconstruction DBT images. For this comparison, the performance on Hologic is considered the control group and performance on Siemens Standard is the test group. The test is to determine if the difference between the control group and the test group is within the margin of non-inferiority for Sensitivity and AUC, and FPPI.
Standalone testing was performed for the control group and the test group individually. Kev performance measures were then compared by subtracting the test group performance from

the control group performance. This was done in a way to produce not just an estimate of the mean difference but also a distribution of the expected differences. In order to show statistical significance, the two-sided 95% confidence interval boundaries must be within the margin of non-inferiority.
Three measures were used to compare the performance of ProFound AI for DBT V2.1 with Siemens Standard Reconstruction DBT images to ProFound AI for DBT V2.0 with Hologic DBT. Each of the three measures produced differences that were within the margin of noninferiority. Therefore, in the areas of Sensitivity, FPPI, and AUC, ProFound AI for DBT V2.1 with Siemens Standard Reconstruction DBT system is not inferior to ProFound AI for DBT V2.0 with Hologic DBT system.
