Intended Use

8MP Color LCD Displays C811W, C811WT, PA27 and PA27T are intended for in vitro diagnostic use to display digital images of histopathology slides acquired from IVD-labeled whole-slide imaging scanners and viewed using IVD-labeled digital pathology image viewing software that have been validated for use with this device. They are an aid to the pathologist to review and interpret digital images of histopathology slides for primary diagnosis. It is the responsibility of the pathologist to employ appropriate procedures and safeguards to assure the validity of the interpretation of images using 8MP Color LCD Displays C811W, C811WT, PA27 and PA27T. The displays are not intended for use with digital images from frozen section, cytology, or non-formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (non-FFPE) hematopathology specimens.

Device Description

The C811WT. PA27T. C811W. PA27 are 8MP Color LCD Displays, specifically intended for review and interpretation of surgical pathology slides from IVD-labeled whole-slide imaging scanners that have been validated for use with the display.

The displays are equipped with a 27-inch color LCD panel with a fine pixel pitch. They use the latest generation of LED backlight panels. The built-in brightness stabilization control circuits make sure the brightness of these displays is stable in their life, so the products meet the demands of high precision medical imaging.

For C811WT. PA27T. C811W. PA27. the only difference is the capacitive touch screen.

C811WT, PA27T have the same capacitive touch screen. C811W, PA27 don't have a capacitive touch screen.

The difference between C811WT and PA27T is only different customers which results in the two models. The difference between C811W and PA27 is only different customers which results in the two models.

§ 864.3700 Whole slide imaging system.

(a)
Identification. The whole slide imaging system is an automated digital slide creation, viewing, and management system intended as an aid to the pathologist to review and interpret digital images of surgical pathology slides. The system generates digital images that would otherwise be appropriate for manual visualization by conventional light microscopy.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:(1) Premarket notification submissions must include the following information:
(i) The indications for use must specify the tissue specimen that is intended to be used with the whole slide imaging system and the components of the system.
(ii) A detailed description of the device and bench testing results at the component level, including for the following, as appropriate:
(A) Slide feeder;
(B) Light source;
(C) Imaging optics;
(D) Mechanical scanner movement;
(E) Digital imaging sensor;
(F) Image processing software;
(G) Image composition techniques;
(H) Image file formats;
(I) Image review manipulation software;
(J) Computer environment; and
(K) Display system.
(iii) Detailed bench testing and results at the system level, including for the following, as appropriate:
(A) Color reproducibility;
(B) Spatial resolution;
(C) Focusing test;
(D) Whole slide tissue coverage;
(E) Stitching error; and
(F) Turnaround time.
(iv) Detailed information demonstrating the performance characteristics of the device, including, as appropriate:
(A) Precision to evaluate intra-system and inter-system precision using a comprehensive set of clinical specimens with defined, clinically relevant histologic features from various organ systems and diseases. Multiple whole slide imaging systems, multiple sites, and multiple readers must be included.
(B) Reproducibility data to evaluate inter-site variability using a comprehensive set of clinical specimens with defined, clinically relevant histologic features from various organ systems and diseases. Multiple whole slide imaging systems, multiple sites, and multiple readers must be included.
(C) Data from a clinical study to demonstrate that viewing, reviewing, and diagnosing digital images of surgical pathology slides prepared from tissue slides using the whole slide imaging system is non-inferior to using an optical microscope. The study should evaluate the difference in major discordance rates between manual digital (MD) and manual optical (MO) modalities when compared to the reference (
e.g., main sign-out diagnosis).(D) A detailed human factor engineering process must be used to evaluate the whole slide imaging system user interface(s).
(2) Labeling compliant with 21 CFR 809.10(b) must include the following:
(i) The intended use statement must include the information described in paragraph (b)(1)(i) of this section, as applicable, and a statement that reads, “It is the responsibility of a qualified pathologist to employ appropriate procedures and safeguards to assure the validity of the interpretation of images obtained using this device.”
(ii) A description of the technical studies and the summary of results, including those that relate to paragraphs (b)(1)(ii) and (iii) of this section, as appropriate.
(iii) A description of the performance studies and the summary of results, including those that relate to paragraph (b)(1)(iv) of this section, as appropriate.
(iv) A limiting statement that specifies that pathologists should exercise professional judgment in each clinical situation and examine the glass slides by conventional microscopy if there is doubt about the ability to accurately render an interpretation using this device alone.
