AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for a medical device called MULTIX Impact C, which is a radiographic X-ray system. It describes the device, its intended use, and claims substantial equivalence to a predicate device (MULTIX Impact K193089).

However, the document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence through comparisons of technical characteristics and adherence to standards for the device itself (X-ray system), rather than providing details about an AI algorithm's performance or a clinical study that would involve acceptance criteria for such an algorithm. The MULTIX Impact C is designed to generate diagnostic images, but there is no mention of an AI component or software that interprets images or assists human readers in a diagnostic capacity.

Therefore, many of the requested details about acceptance criteria, study design, expert involvement, and AI performance cannot be extracted from this document, as it describes a hardware-focused X-ray system rather than an AI-driven image analysis tool.

Here's a breakdown based on the information available in the provided text:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

No acceptance criteria and reported device performance directly related to an AI algorithm's diagnostic output (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, AUC) are provided. The tests described are non-clinical performance and safety tests for the X-ray system hardware and associated software.

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

Not applicable, as no AI-specific test set or data provenance is mentioned. The testing described is for the X-ray system's hardware and software functionality, not for AI diagnostic performance.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

Not applicable, as no ground truth for an AI diagnostic algorithm's performance is established or discussed. The document mentions "operators are healthcare professionals familiar with and responsible for the x-ray examinations to be performed," but this refers to the users of the X-ray system, not experts establishing ground truth for AI.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable, as no AI-specific test set or adjudication method is mentioned.

5. 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

Not applicable. This document describes an X-ray imaging system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool that would typically undergo an MRMC study.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Not applicable. The device is a radiographic X-ray system; there is no standalone algorithm performance described.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

Not applicable. Ground truth for an AI diagnostic algorithm is not discussed. The "ground truth" for the device's performance would be its conformity to engineering specifications and safety standards, as demonstrated by non-clinical testing.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable, as there is no mention of an AI model or a training set. The software mentioned (VA20) is an upgraded version to support hardware modifications and new control features, not an AI for image analysis.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable, as there is no mention of an AI model or a training set.


Summary of what is described regarding the device's "acceptance criteria" and testing:

The document indicates that the device (MULTIX Impact C X-ray system) meets its "acceptance criteria" through:

  • Non-clinical performance testing: "Non-clinical tests were conducted for the MULTIX Impact C during product development. The modifications described in this Premarket Notification are supported with verification and validation testing."

    • ISO 10993-1:2009 (Biological evaluation of medical devices – Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process)
  • Software Documentation and Testing: "Software Documentation for a Moderate Level of Concern software... The performance data demonstrates continued conformance with special controls for medical devices containing software. Non-clinical tests (integration and functional) were conducted on the MULTIX Impact C during product development." All software specifications "met the acceptance criteria."
  • Risk Analysis: "The risk analysis was completed and risk controls were implemented to mitigate identified hazards. The test results support that all the software specifications have met the acceptance criteria."
  • Substantial Equivalence: The primary "acceptance criterion" for clearance appears to be demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (MULTIX Impact K193089), which is achieved by showing similar indications for use, mechanical design, and that "non-clinical test data demonstrate that the MULTIX Impact C device performance is comparable to the predicate device."

In summary, the provided text is for the regulatory submission of an X-ray machine. It details the device's features, compliance with general safety and performance standards for X-ray equipment, and its similarity to a predicate device. It does not describe an AI diagnostic algorithm or a clinical study for such an algorithm's performance.

The risk analysis was completed and risk controls were implemented to mitigate identified hazards. The test results support that all the software specifications have met the acceptance criteria. Verification and validation testing were found acceptable to support the claim of substantial equivalence.

General Safety and Effectiveness Concerns 10.

Instructions for use are included within the device labeling and the information provided will enable the user to operate the device in a safe and effective manner. Several safety features, including visual and audible warnings, are incorporated into the system design. In addition, the MULTIX Impact C Radiography X-ray system is continually monitored and if an error occurs the system functions will be blocked and an error message will be displayed.

Risk management is ensured via a hazard analysis which is used to identify potential hazards. These potential hazards are controlled via software development, verification, and validation testing. To minimize electrical, mechanical, and radiation hazards, Siemens adheres to recognized and established industry practice, and all equipment is subject to final performance testing. Furthermore, the operators are healthcare professionals familiar with and responsible for the x-ray examinations to be performed.

11. Conclusion as to Substantial Equivalence

The MULTIX Impact C has the same indications for use as the predicate device, MULTIX Impact (K193089). The operating environment and mechanical design are similar.

Verification and validation testing demonstrate that the MULTIX Impact C performs as intended. The non-clinical test data demonstrate that the MULTIX Impact C device

{12}------------------------------------------------

performance is comparable to the predicate device that is currently marketed for the same intended use.

In summary, Siemens concludes that the MULTIX Impact C does not introduce any new potential safety risks and is substantially equivalent to, and performs as well as, the predicate device, MULTIX Impact (K193089).
