Yes
The device description explicitly states that "Deep learning algorithms are applied to images" and that these "Algorithms are trained with a large database". Deep learning is a subset of machine learning and artificial intelligence.
No
The device is a diagnostic aid that helps identify suspicious regions but does not directly treat or prevent a disease.
Yes
The device identifies regions suspicious for breast cancer and assesses their likelihood of malignancy, providing scores and categories indicating the likelihood that cancer is present, which clearly aligns with the definition of a diagnostic device.
Yes
The device description explicitly states "Transpara is a software only application". While it requires a "standalone processing appliance" and interacts with other systems (workstations, PACS, RIS), the device being submitted for 510(k) is the software itself, not the hardware it runs on or interacts with.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. The description clearly states that Transpara processes images (mammograms) of the breast, not biological samples like blood, tissue, or urine.
- The intended use is as a concurrent reading aid for physicians interpreting medical images. This is a function related to medical imaging analysis, not laboratory testing of biological specimens.
- The device description focuses on image processing and AI algorithms applied to images. There is no mention of reagents, calibrators, controls, or other components typically associated with IVDs.
Therefore, Transpara falls under the category of a medical device, specifically a software medical device used in diagnostic imaging, rather than an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
No
The provided text does not explicitly state that the FDA has reviewed, approved, or cleared a Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP) for this specific device.
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Transpara software is intended for use as a concurrent reading aid for physicians interpreting screening full-field digital mammography exams and digital breast tomosynthesis exams from compatible FFDM and DBT systems, to identify regions suspicious for breast cancer and assess their likelihood of malignancy. Output of the device includes locations of calcifications groups and soft-tissue regions, with scores indicating the likelihood that cancer is present, and an exam score indicating the likelihood that cancer is present in the exam. Patient management decisions should not be made solely on the basis of analysis by Transpara.

Device Description
Transpara is a software only application designed to be used by physicians to improve interpretation of full-field digital mammography (FFMD) and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT). Deep learning algorithms are applied to images for recognition of suspicious calcifications and soft tissue lesions (including densities, masses, architectural distortions, and asymmetries). Algorithms are trained with a large database of biopsy-proven examples of breast cancer, benign abnormalities, and examples of normal tissue.
Transpara offers the following functions which may be used at any time in the reading process, to improve detection and characterization of abnormalities and enhance workflow:
- · AI findings for display in the images to highlight locations where the device detects suspicious calcifications or soft tissue lesions, along with region scores per finding on a scale ranging from 1-100, with higher scores indicating a higher level of suspicion.
- Links between corresponding regions in different views of the breast, which may be utilized to enhance user interfaces and workflow.
- An exam-based score which categorizes exams with increasing likelihood of cancer on a scale of 1-10 or in three risk categories labeled as 'low', 'intermediate' or 'elevated'.
The concurrent use indication implies that it is up to the users to decide how to use Transpara in the reading process. Transpara functions can be used before, during or after visual interpretation of an exam by a user.
Results of Transpara are computed in a standalone processing appliance which accepts mammograms in DICOM format as input, processes them, and sends the processing output to a destination using the DICOM protocol in a standardized mammography CAD DICOM format. Common destinations are medical workstations, PACS and RIS. The system can be configured using a service interface. Implementation of a user interface for end users in a medical workstation is to be provided by third parties.

Algorithms are trained with a large database of biopsy-proven examples of breast cancer, benign abnormalities, and examples of normal tissue.
Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol
Standalone performance tests were conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence with the predicate device. For these tests an independent dataset was used, which was acquired from multiple centers and had not been used for development of the algorithms. This testset contained FFDM and DBT mammograms acquired with devices from different manufacturers (FFDM: Hologic, GE, Philips, Siemens, and Fujifilm, DBT: Hologic, Siemens, GE and Fuiifilm), representative for breast imaging practices performing screening and diagnostic assessment, collected from multiple clinical centers in seven EU countries and the US. For the inclusion of the normal exams in the test set the majority of exams had a normal follow-up of at least one year.
The testset consisted of 10,207 exams, including 1,350 exams with biopsy-proven cancer.
Number of Exams | Normal | Benign | Cancer | |

Summary of Performance Studies
Standalone performance tests were conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence with the predicate device. For these tests an independent dataset was used, which was acquired from multiple centers and had not been used for development of the algorithms. This testset contained FFDM and DBT mammograms acquired with devices from different manufacturers (FFDM: Hologic, GE, Philips, Siemens, and Fujifilm, DBT: Hologic, Siemens, GE and Fuiifilm), representative for breast imaging practices performing screening and diagnostic assessment, collected from multiple clinical centers in seven EU countries and the US. For the inclusion of the normal exams in the test set the majority of exams had a normal follow-up of at least one year.
The testset consisted of 10,207 exams, including 1,350 exams with biopsy-proven cancer.
Exam based sensitivity for cancer detection in the testset was computed by taking the fraction of cancers that were correctly localized in at least one view (MLO or CC). False positive rates were computed in exams without cancer, by dividing the number of regions detected per image by the number of images.

Additional performance testing for Transpara cancer detection consisted of sub-group analyses to ensure no deviations in specific sub-groups. The sub-groups include Ethnicity, Age Groups, Lesion Size, Radiological Lesion Subtypes, Histology Subtypes, Screening vs Diagnostic (DBT), and Breast Density. The results for the analysis do not show any deviations for specific sub-groups. The performance in the sub-groups meets the algorithm requirements.
Transpara 2.1.0 comes with the introduction of Temporal Analysis. The testset for this feature consists of 5,724 exams, including 643 exams with biopsy-proven cancer. Exam based sensitivity for cancer detection in the testset with temporal analysis was computed by taking the fraction of cancers that were correctly localized in at least one view (MLO or CC). False positive rates were computed in exams without cancer, by dividing the number of regions detected per image by the number of images.

Additional performance testing for Transpara cancer detection with Temporal Analysis consisted of sub-group analyses: Prior Time Intervals, Age Groups, Single vs Multi-prior, Breast Density, Modality of Prior Type for DBT current, and Manufacturer Type. The results for the analysis do not show any deviations for specific sub-groups. The performance in the sub-groups meets the algorithm requirements.
Based on standalone testing without temporal comparison it was concluded that Transpara 2.1.0 breast cancer detection performance for FFDM and DBT mammograms of compatible devices is non-inferior and superior to the performance of the predicate device Transpara 1.7.2. With temporal comparison the performance of the device is superior to the performance without temporal comparison.

Device description 4.
Transpara is a software only application designed to be used by physicians to improve interpretation of full-field digital mammography (FFMD) and digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT). Deep learning algorithms are applied to images for recognition of suspicious calcifications and soft tissue lesions (including densities, masses, architectural distortions, and asymmetries). Algorithms are trained with a large database of biopsy-proven examples of breast cancer, benign abnormalities, and examples of normal tissue.
Transpara offers the following functions which may be used at any time in the reading process, to improve detection and characterization of abnormalities and enhance workflow:
- · Al findings for display in the images to highlight locations where the device detects suspicious calcifications or soft tissue lesions, along with region scores per finding on a scale ranging from 1-100, with higher scores indicating a higher level of suspicion.
6
- Links between corresponding regions in different views of the breast, which may be utilized to enhance user interfaces and workflow.
- An exam-based score which categorizes exams with increasing likelihood of cancer on a scale of 1-10 or in three risk categories labeled as 'low', 'intermediate' or 'elevated'.
The concurrent use indication implies that it is up to the users to decide how to use Transpara in the reading process. Transpara functions can be used before, during or after visual interpretation of an exam by a user.
Results of Transpara are computed in a standalone processing appliance which accepts mammograms in DICOM format as input, processes them, and sends the processing output to a destination using the DICOM protocol in a standardized mammography CAD DICOM format. Common destinations are medical workstations, PACS and RIS. The system can be configured using a service interface. Implementation of a user interface for end users in a medical workstation is to be provided by third parties.
Indications for use 5.
Transpara is a software medical device for use in a healthcare facility or hospital with the following indications for use:
Transpara software is intended for use as a concurrent reading aid for physicians interpreting screening full-field digital mammography exams and digital breast tomosynthesis exams from compatible FFDM and DBT systems, to identify regions suspicious for breast cancer and assess their likelihood of malignancy. Output of the device includes locations of calcifications groups and soft-tissue regions, with scores indicating the likelihood that cancer is present, and an exam score indicating the likelihood that cancer is present in the exam. Patient management decisions should not be made solely on the basis of analysis by Transpara.
Intended user population
Intended users of Transpara are physicians qualified to read screening mammography exams and digital breast tomosynthesis exams.
Intended patient population
The device is intended to be used in the population of women undergoing screening mammography or digital breast tomosynthesis.
7
Warnings and precautions
Transpara is an adjunct tool and not intended to replace a physicians' own review of a mammogram. Decisions should not be made solely based on analysis by Transpara.
6. Predicate device comparison
The indication for use of Transpara 2.1.0 is similar to that of the predicate device. Both devices are intended for concurrent use by physicians interpreting breast images to help them with localizing and characterizing abnormalities. The devices are not intended as a replacement for the review of a physician or their clinical judgement.
The overall design of Transpara 2.1.0 is the same as that of the predicate device. Both versions detect and characterize findings in radiological breast images and provide information about the presence, location, and characteristics of the findings to the user in a similar way. There are differences in the algorithmic components, which have changed to improve detection accuracy for FFDM and DBT. Furthermore, temporal comparison has been included to allow a comparison of the current exam with prior exams. In case prior exams are assessed, the suspicious regions on the current exam will be adjusted based on the comparison with prior exams.
Changes do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness of the device when used as labeled.
7. Summary of non-clinical performance data
In the design and development of Transpara 2.1.0, ScreenPoint applied the following voluntary FDA recognized standards and guidelines:

Standalone performance tests were conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence with the predicate device. For these tests an independent dataset was used, which was acquired from multiple centers and had not been used for development of the algorithms. This testset contained FFDM and DBT mammograms acquired with devices from different manufacturers (FFDM: Hologic, GE, Philips, Siemens, and Fujifilm, DBT: Hologic, Siemens, GE and Fuiifilm), representative for breast imaging practices performing screening and diagnostic assessment, collected from multiple clinical centers in seven EU countries and the US. For the inclusion of the normal exams in the test set the majority of exams had a normal follow-up of at least one year.
The testset consisted of 10,207 exams, including 1,350 exams with biopsy-proven cancer. An overview is presented in table 1. In the dataset for 2D images, 57% of the biopsy-proven cancer findings are characterized as soft tissue lesions, while 36% present with calcifications. The median diameter of the lesions is 16.34 mm. At the exam level, 44% of biopsy-proven cancer cases involve invasive ductal carcinoma, while 19% present only with ductal carcinoma in situ. For 3D images, 61% of the biopsy-proven cancer findings in the dataset are characterized as soft tissue lesions, while 34% present with calcifications. The median diameter of the lesions is 15.57 mm. At the exam level, 48% of biopsy-proven cancer cases involve invasive ductal carcinoma, while 17% present only with ductal carcinoma in situ.

DBT | 4,477 | 3,757 | 120 | 600 |
Total | 10,207 | 8,587 | 270 | 1,350 |
Exam based sensitivity for cancer detection in the testset was computed by taking the fraction of cancers that were correctly localized in at least one view (MLO or CC). False positive rates were computed in exams without cancer, by dividing the number of regions detected per image by the number of images. The results are demonstrated in the table below.

Additional performance testing for Transpara cancer detection consisted of the sets described in table 3. For each sub-analysis the AUC as well as the sensitivities at the most important operating points (70% specificity, 80% specificity, 97% specificity) was compared. The goal of these sub-analysis was to ensure that Transpara does not show any deviations in specific sub-groups.

Conclusions 8.
The data presented in this 510(k) includes all required information to support the review by FDA. Standalone performance tests with FFDM and DBT demonstrate that Transpara 2.1.0 achieves non-inferior and superior detection performance compared to the predicate device.
ScreenPoint has applied a risk management process in accordance with FDA recognized standards to identify, evaluate, and mitigate all known hazards related to Transpara 2.1.0. These hazards may occur when accuracy of diagnosis is potentially affected, causing either false-positives or false-negatives. All identified risks are effectively mitigated and it can be concluded that the residual risk is outweighed by the benefits.
As described above, the subject device, Transpara 2.1.0, and the predicate device have the same intended use. While there are differences in technological characteristics, these differences were evaluated with performance testing as described and the technological differences do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. Therefore, the results of the testing demonstrate that the subject device, Transpara 2.1.0, is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
