AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information based on the provided document:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than defining specific quantitative performance metrics as "acceptance criteria" for a new AI/software feature in the way clinical performance studies usually do. Instead, the "acceptance criteria" are implied to be that the modifications do not negatively impact safety or effectiveness, and that the device performs comparably to the predicate devices and meets relevant safety standards.

For the new features explicitly mentioned (Automatic Stitching and Dual Energy Subtraction), the document states they add functionality without affecting patient safety or effectiveness. For the other components, the criteria are often "Same" or "Similar functionality with same imaging results" or "doesn't affect the safety or effectiveness."

To represent this in a table, we'll extract performance comparisons from the "Functional and Specification Differences" table (Table 4) and the "Justification for Differences" (Table 5).

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

The document states:

  • "Non-clinical testing included verification and validation testing, image evaluation, testing, and safety testing."
  • "Performance testing included functional testing of all motions of the system(s) with respect to the design specifications. Image performance testing was conducted and results included in the submission."
  • "Clinical testing is not applicable due to the fact that no new clinical applications were introduced to the system."

The document does NOT specify a sample size for any test set (clinical or otherwise) in terms of patient data or images used for validation of the radiographic system itself, nor does it mention data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective). It primarily relies on hardware and software equivalence, and compliance with industry standards.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications

Not applicable. The document explicitly states "Clinical testing is not applicable." Therefore, there was no clinical study conducted that would necessitate expert readers to establish ground truth for a test set. The evaluation focuses on technical performance and equivalence to predicate devices.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable. As no clinical test set requiring expert adjudication was performed, no adjudication method is mentioned.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. The document states "Clinical testing is not applicable due to the fact that no new clinical applications were introduced to the system." Therefore, there is no information on how much human readers improve with or without AI assistance. The new software features (Automatic Stitching, Dual Energy Subtraction) are presented as additional functionalities that don't affect safety or effectiveness, not as AI-assisted diagnostic tools requiring a comparative effectiveness study.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study

Not applicable. The device is a radiographic system, not an AI algorithm intended for standalone diagnostic performance. While it includes new software features (Automatic Stitching, Dual Energy Subtraction), these are integrated functionalities of the imaging system and not described as standalone diagnostic algorithms requiring independent performance evaluation without human interaction.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for the evaluation is primarily based on:

  • Compliance with technical specifications and design requirements: Functional testing, image performance testing.
  • Adherence to safety and performance standards: IEC 60601 series, EN ISO 14971, IEC 62366-1, IEC 62304, 21 CFR 1020.30, 21 CFR 1020.31.
  • Substantial equivalence to predicate devices: Demonstration that the new device has the same intended use, fundamental technological characteristics, and that any differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness.
  • Software documentation assessment: For the software components, including the new features, documentation was provided for a "Moderate Level of Concern" software as per FDA guidance.

No clinical ground truth (e.g., expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data) was used or required given the nature of this submission.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. The document describes an X-ray imaging system, not an AI/ML device that requires a training set of data. The new software features (Automatic Stitching, Dual Energy Subtraction) are described as functionalities, not adaptive algorithms that learn from data.

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

Not applicable. As there was no training set, there was no ground truth to establish for it.

Table 5 Justification for Differences

NoteDescription
Note 1Allengers DigiX FDX (Subject Device) is capable for carrying patient weight up to250kg without raising any new risk related to patient safety or effectiveness.
Note 2Patient table (Floatex ADV) modified with more travel which provide full patientcoverage which doesn't affect the safety or effectiveness of device.
Note 3Optional Wireless IR Remote (make Tech switch) has same functionality as wiredhand switch for Exposure. Wireless version doesn't raise any new safety oreffectiveness issue. This feature is in EMC compliant and meet all necessaryrequirements pertaining to hand switch design as stated in 21 CFR
Note 4Varex Rad 14 X-Ray tube is new X-Ray tube for existing device. However, the X-Ray tube used by subject device is already cleared by FDA under Stationary Digitalradiography X-Ray device under 510(K) number K183541. Having same focal spotwith different X-Ray tube loading and target diameter which provide essentially thesame imaging results, which doesn't affect the safety or effectiveness.
Note 5The subject device utilizes different X-Ray flat panel detectors; however, the flatpanel detectors used by the subject device are already previously cleared by theFDA and does not raise the level of safety concern and affect any effectiveness.The relevant 510(k) approval number are K183541, K181279 & K182517
Note 6New Detector Paxscan 4336W v4 + added in subject device. The flat paneldetector have all the technical specifications like Image area, Pixel Pitch, Activearea, resolution same to detector Paxscan 4336 W v4 (Previously cleared under510 (K) No. K183541) with light weight facility. The new additional Flat paneldetector (Varex Paxscan 4336W v4+) doesn't affect the patient safety oreffectiveness.
Note 7The Subject Device utilized different Flat panel X-Ray detector (i.e. MARS 1417V),However the flat panel detector used by subject device is updated version ofpreviously cleared FPD having 510(K) number K161730 with same imaging area,pixel pitch and same spatial resolution. The new additional Flat panel detector(MARS 1417V) doesn't affect the patient safety or effectiveness.
Note 8Monitors with 19" or more in sizes (Touch and Non touch) are utilized in subjectdevice with same imaging results which doesn't affect the patient safety oreffectiveness.
Note 9The subject device utilizes additional System software (SYNERGY DR FDX) withsame and updated functionalities like automatic Image stitching, Dual Energyfeature and update operating system. However Software Documentation for aModerate Level of Concern software per FDA's Guidance Document "guidance forthe Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices"issued on May 11, 2005 is also included as part of this submission. The newsoftware doesn't raise the level of safety concern and affect any effectiveness.
Note 10Dual-energy subtraction chest radiography improves the radiologist's ability todetect and accurately diagnose a wide variety of chest lesions. The majoradvantage of this technique is that it makes calcification more conspicuous, anessential aid in characterizing pulmonary nodules. Thus this new feature doesn'taffect the patient safety or effectiveness.
