The PRORAD ATLAS X-Ray system includes the ULTRAPORTABLE and ULTRAPORTABLE PLUS, which are portable diagnostic X-ray systems with fixed 70kV and 2mA tube current. These systems are intended to produce anatomical X-rays of the body extremities in both pediatric and adult patients. The PRORAD ATLAS X-Ray system was designed, developed, and manufactured by Prognosys Medical Systems Private Limited. The model numbers are listed below.
| Model Number | Model Name | Model Description |
|---|---|---|
| A86-ATL-0001 | PRORAD ATLAS ULTRAPORTABLE | These are ultraportable X-ray systems designed to generate diagnostic, high-quality X-ray images |
| A87-ATL-0001 | The PRORAD ATLAS ULTRAPORTABLE PLUS |
The PRORAD ATLAS X-ray system is a sophisticated, battery-powered X-ray generator offered in two versions: PRORAD ATLAS ULTRAPORTABLE and ULTRAPORTABLE PLUS. The main distinction between these models lies in their exposure time ranges and target anatomical areas. The ULTRAPORTABLE model provides exposure times ranging from 0.01 to 1.30 seconds, while the ULTRAPORTABLE PLUS model offers an extended exposure range of 0.01 to 2.5 seconds. Both models share identical internal components, software, algorithms, and operational features and are intended for imaging body extremities. The system includes a high-voltage tank with an X-ray tube mounted on an adjustable tripod stand, allowing users to adjust the height to the specific imaging area. Exposure parameters are configured through the X-ray generator's graphical user interface (GUI). After setting the parameters and positioning the patient on the detector, the X-ray is activated via an exposure switch. The detector captures the radiation, converts it into a digital signal, and transmits the data wirelessly to a computer equipped with compatible software. The images are processed and displayed on the computer for diagnostic review. The PRORAD ATLAS system is compatible with several 510(k)-cleared detectors and their associated software, listed below in Table 1. Prognosys includes one detector and its pre-configured software in the package, depending on availability. Fully battery-operated, the system does not support direct power connection but can seamlessly integrate with multiple detectors and compatible software as part of the package.
The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and supporting documentation for the PRORAD ATLAS ULTRAPORTABLE X-Ray Systems do not include acceptance criteria or a detailed study that proves the device meets specific performance criteria beyond general safety and effectiveness.
The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Remex KA6, K212144) rather than presenting a performance study with defined acceptance criteria. The "Summary of non-clinical testing" lists a series of international standards (IEC, ISO) and FDA guidance documents that were followed for design control, risk management, verification, and validation. The "Summary of clinical testing" mentions that clinical images were collected and reviewed by a qualified radiologist, confirming they are "clinically acceptable." However, specific quantitative acceptance criteria for image quality, diagnostic accuracy, or other performance metrics, along with the study design and results against those criteria, are not detailed in this document.
Therefore, I cannot provide a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance, nor can I provide information about sample size, expert details, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or training set specifics, as this information is not present in the provided text.
Based on the available text, here's what can be extracted:
- Overall Conclusion: The device is deemed "safe and effective when the device is used as labelled and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device."
Here's a breakdown of why the requested information cannot be fully provided based on the input:
-
A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This information is not explicitly stated in the document. The document confirms that "Validation of PRORAD ATLAS X-Ray System has demonstrated that the system enables optimal and quality imaging of anatomical structures" and that clinical images are "clinically acceptable," but no specific quantitative criteria or performance metrics are given.
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: The document states that "Clinical images of body extremities were collected from patients of varying ages, weights, and BMIs." However, the exact sample size and the provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective nature) of this clinical image test set are not specified.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: The document mentions that images were "reviewed by a qualified radiologist." It does not specify the number of radiologists or their specific qualifications (e.g., years of experience, board certification).
-
Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: No adjudication method for the clinical image review is described.
-
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: An MRMC study is not mentioned. The device described is an X-ray system, not an AI software to assist human readers.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: This is not applicable as the device is an X-ray system, not an algorithm, and it's intended to be used by trained medical professionals.
-
The type of ground truth used: The ground truth for the clinical images appears to be "clinical acceptability" as determined by a "qualified radiologist." This aligns with "expert consensus" in a general sense, but no more objective ground truth (e.g., pathology, outcomes data) is mentioned for the image quality assessment.
-
The sample size for the training set: The document does not mention a training set, as it describes an X-ray hardware system, not an AI-driven software that requires a training set.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable, as no training set is mentioned.
