Intended Use

WRDensity is a software application intended for use with compatible full field digital mammography and digital breast tomosynthesis systems. WRDensity provides an ACR BI-RADS 5th Edition breast density category to aid interpreting physicians in the assessment of breast tissue composition. WRDensity produces adjunctive information. It is not a diagnostic aid.

Device Description

WRDensity is a standalone software application that automatically analyzes "for presentation" data from digital breast x-ray systems with a deep learning algorithm to assess breast tissue composition. WRDensity primarily generates two outputs for an exam, the Breast Density Level (BDL) and the Breast Density Level Probabilities (BDLP).

The Breast Density Level is a categorical breast density assessment in accordance with the American College of Radiology (ACR) Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (BI-RADS®) Atlas 5th Edition breast density categories "A" through "D". The BDL is the primary output of WRDensity.

The Breast Density Level Probabilities are the probabilities calculated by WRDensity for each of the four density categories. The BDLP is a secondary output that provides more information about the breast density of an exam and the device's confidence level.

WRDensity takes in images via a Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) transfer from the facility's mammography imaging system, Picture Archive and Communication Server (PACS), or DICOM router. After analysis, WRDensity sends outputs to be stored in the PACS and Radiology Information System (RIS). These outputs can then be reviewed by the radiologist on the mammography workstation as a DICOM Secondary Capture Image, a DICOM Structured Report, and in the RIS. These outputs can be configured to match user preferences.

5.7 Performance Data

Safety and performance of WRDensity have been evaluated and verified in accordance with software specifications and applicable performance standards through software verification and validation testing. Additionally, software validation activities were performed in

{7}------------------------------------------------

accordance with IEC 62304:2006/AC:2015 - Medical device software - Software life cycle processes, in addition to the FDA guidance document, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices."

The validation testing evaluated the performance of WRDensity along a number of dimensions, including:

  • · Performance was assessed by comparing the Breast Density Level output to the radiologist consensus using accuracy, quadratically-weighted Cohen's kappa, and confusion matrices. Performance on the four-class task and binary task, i.e. dense (BI-RADS C+D) vs. non-dense (BI-RADS A+B) were both assessed.
  • Consistency was assessed by evaluating the agreement, in terms of percentage of . cases, between the BDL for the mediolateral oblique (MLO) and craniocaudal (CC) views of the same breast.
  • Reproducibility was assessed using the maximum root mean square error across all . images between the predicted probabilities produced from an initial processing run and those produced in a second processing run on the same testing data.

The output of WRDensity was compared against a consensus of five expert radiologists who independently assessed breast density on a test dataset that represented all compatible modalities and patient populations. The test dataset comprised 871 exams from unique patients. On the four-class task, WRDensity achieved a quadratically-weighted Cohen's kappa of 0.90, 95% confidence interval [0.88, 0.92]. A confusion matrix demonstrating the level of agreement between the BDL and the radiologist consensus for each BI-RADS breast density category can be found in Figure 1.

{8}------------------------------------------------

Image /page/8/Figure/0 description: The image is a confusion matrix showing the relationship between WRDensity and Consensus. The matrix is a 4x4 grid, with each cell showing the percentage and number of observations. The diagonal elements show the percentage of agreement between WRDensity and Consensus, with values of 82%, 90%, 85%, and 85%. The off-diagonal elements show the percentage of disagreement between WRDensity and Consensus.

On the binary task, WRDensity achieved a Cohen's kappa of 0.88, 95% confidence interval [0.85, 0.91]. The confusion matrix is presented in Figure 2.

{9}------------------------------------------------

Image /page/9/Figure/0 description: The image is a confusion matrix comparing WRDensity and Consensus. The matrix shows the percentage and number of cases for each combination of non-dense and dense classifications. For non-dense classifications, 93% (406) are correctly classified, while 7% (29) are misclassified as dense. For dense classifications, 95% (414) are correctly classified, while 5% (22) are misclassified as non-dense.
