The Q-Switched Nd: Yag laser is indicated for the treatment of: benign cutaneous lessons, such as Warts, Scars, Striae and Psoriasis; benign pigmented lesions, such as Lentigines, nevus, and the removal of black or blue tattoos.
The Q-switched laser therapy device is laser system which delivers laser at a wavelength 1064nm or 532nm and the pulse mode is single pulse. In laser handpiece, there is one optical cavity containing the Nd: YAG crystal. The laser beam is directed to the treatment zone. When the laser beam contacts human tissue, the energy in the beam is absorbed, resulting in a very rapidly, highly localized temperature increase to the target tissue. The instantaneous temperature increase (thermal effect) causes the cells change of target tissue to achieve laser treatment effect.
The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification letter from the FDA regarding a Q-Switched Nd:Yag laser device. This type of document establishes substantial equivalence to a predicate device and does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving that the device meets specific performance criteria through clinical data, especially not for AI/machine learning devices where such studies would be critical.
The document explicitly states:
- "No clinical study is included in this submission." (Page 9)
- The entire evaluation for substantial equivalence is based on "Non-Clinical Test Conclusion," showing compliance with various electrical safety, biocompatibility, and laser safety standards (ANSI/AAMI ES60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-22, IEC 60825-1, ISO 10993-5, ISO 10993-10), and Software Validation & Verification Test.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information for an acceptance criteria table, sample sizes, expert ground truth establishment, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or training set details, as this information is not present in the provided FDA 510(k) summary for this laser device.
The questions you've posed (acceptance criteria, sample size, expert ground truth, MRMC, etc.) are highly relevant for the validation of AI/ML-based medical devices or devices with a diagnostic component whose performance is assessed against human interpretation or clinical outcomes. The device in this document is a physical laser for treatment, and its FDA clearance is based on demonstrating equivalence in its technical specifications and adherence to relevant safety standards, not on diagnostic accuracy or AI performance.

Dear Ray Way:
We have reviewed your section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/ofdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
{1}------------------------------------------------
Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30, Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90, Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR 807.97).
