AI/ML Overview

This FDA 510(k) clearance letter pertains to several MAGNETOM MRI systems with software Syngo MR XB10. The document primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices through non-clinical testing of new and modified hardware and software features, particularly those involving Artificial Intelligence (AI) such as "Deep Resolve" functionalities.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the studies that prove the devices meet them, specifically for the AI features:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance for AI Features

The document does not explicitly state "acceptance criteria" for the AI features in a numerical format that would typically be seen for a device's performance metrics (e.g., minimum sensitivity, specificity). Instead, the acceptance criteria are implicitly defined by the evaluation methods and the "Test result summary" for each Deep Resolve feature, which aim to demonstrate equivalent or improved image quality compared to conventional methods.

AI FeatureAcceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device PerformanceComments
Deep Resolve Swift Brain- Quantitative quality metrics (PSNR, SSIM, NMSE) to demonstrate network impact.- Visual inspection to ensure no undetected artifacts.- Evaluation in clinical settings with collaboration partners.- "Impact of the network has been characterized by several quality metrics such as peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index (SSIM) and normalized mean squared error (NMSE)."- "Images were inspected visually to ensure that potential artefacts are detected that are not well captured by the metrics."- "Work-in-progress packages of the network were delivered and evaluated in clinical settings with collaboration partners."The results indicate successful performance in meeting these criteria, suggesting the AI feature performs as intended without negative impact on image quality and with acceptable quantitative metrics.
Deep Resolve Boost for FL3D_VIBE and Deep Resolve Boost for SPACE- Quantitative evaluations (SSIM, PSNR, MSE) showing convergence of training and improvements over conventional parallel imaging.- Visual inspection to confirm no negative impact on image quality.- The function should allow for faster acquisition or improved image quality.- "Quantitative evaluations of structural similarity index (SSIM), peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and mean squared error (MSE) metrics showed a convergence of the training and improvements compared to conventional parallel imaging."- "An inspection of the test images did not reveal any negative impact to the image quality."- "The function has been used either to acquire images faster or to improve image quality."The results indicate successful performance, demonstrating quantitative improvements and confirming user benefit (faster acquisition or improved image quality) without negative visual impact.
Deep Resolve Sharp for FL3D_VIBE and Deep Resolve Sharp for SPACE- Quantitative quality metrics (PSNR, SSIM, perceptual loss).- Rating and evaluation of image sharpness by intensity profile comparisons.- Demonstration of increased edge sharpness and reduced Gibb's artifacts.- "The impact of the Deep Resolve Sharp network has been characterized by several quality metrics such as peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index (SSIM), and perceptual loss."- "The tests include rating and an evaluation of image sharpness by intensity profile comparisons of reconstruction with and without Deep Resolve Sharp. Both tests show increased edge sharpness and reduced Gibb's artifacts."The results directly confirm improved image sharpness and reduced artifacts, meeting the implied performance criteria.
Deep Resolve Boost for TSE- Similar metrics (PSNR, SSIM, LPIPS) to predicate (cleared) network, both outperforming conventional GRAPPA.- Statistically significant reduction of banding artifacts.- No significant changes in sharpness and detail visibility.- Radiologist evaluation confirming no difference in suitability for clinical diagnostics.- "The evaluation on the test dataset confirmed very similar metrics in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index (SSIM) and learned perceptual image patch similarity metrics (LPIPS) for the predicate and the modified network with both outperforming conventional GRAPPA as the reference."- "Visual evaluations confirmed statistically significant reduction of banding artifacts with no significant changes in sharpness and detail visibility."- "In addition, the radiologist evaluation revealed no difference in suitability for clinical diagnostics between updated and cleared predicate network."This AI feature directly demonstrates equivalent or improved performance compared to the predicate, with specific mention of "radiologist evaluation" ensuring clinical suitability.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

Since the document distinguishes between training, validation, and testing datasets, the "test set" here refers to the data used for final evaluation of the AI model's performance.

  • Deep Resolve Swift Brain:

    • Test Set Sample Size: The document lists "Validation: 3,616 slices (1.5T validation); 6,048 slices (3T validation)" as part of the split. It also mentions "work-in-progress packages of the network were delivered and evaluated in clinical settings with collaboration partners," implying additional testing, but a specific numerical sample size for this external validation is not provided in detail. However, the initial splits serve as the primary "test set" for performance metrics mentioned.
    • Data Provenance: "in-house measurement," implying retrospective data collected at Siemens' facilities. The document notes that "attributes like gender, age and ethnicity are not relevant to the training data" due to network architecture, but no specific country of origin is stated beyond "in-house."
  • Deep Resolve Boost for FL3D_VIBE and Deep Resolve Boost for SPACE:

    • Test Set Sample Size: The document states 19% of 1265 measurements for validation. It also explicitly mentions "collaboration partners (testing)" indicating an external test set, but a specific numerical breakdown for this is not provided.
    • Data Provenance: "in-house measurements (training and validation) and collaboration partners (testing)." This suggests a mix of retrospective data potentially from various countries where Siemens has collaboration, though specific locations are not listed.
  • Deep Resolve Sharp for FL3D_VIBE and Deep Resolve Sharp for SPACE:

    • Test Set Sample Size: 30% of the 500 measurements are listed for validation, which serves as a test set. This equates to 150 measurements.
    • Data Provenance: "in-house measurements," implying retrospective data from Siemens' research facilities. Specific country not mentioned.
  • Deep Resolve Boost for TSE:

    • Test Set Sample Size: "Additional test dataset for banding artifact reduction: more than 2000 slices."
    • Data Provenance: "in-house measurements and collaboration partners" for training/validation. The "additional test dataset for banding artifact reduction" likely follows the same provenance. Retrospective data.

3. Number of Experts Used and Qualifications for Ground Truth

The document does not explicitly state the number of experts used to establish ground truth or their specific qualifications (e.g., "radiologist with 10 years of experience") for any of the Deep Resolve features.

However, for Deep Resolve Boost for TSE, it mentions:

  • "Visual evaluations confirmed statistically significant reduction of banding artifacts... "
  • "In addition, the radiologist evaluation revealed no difference in suitability for clinical diagnostics..."

This indicates that radiologists were involved in the evaluation of the Deep Resolve Boost for TSE feature, presumably as experts to establish the clinical suitability. The exact number and their detailed qualifications are not provided. For other features, the ground truth is primarily based on the acquired raw data or manipulated versions of it, without explicit mention of expert review in the ground truth establishment process.


4. Adjudication Method (for the test set)

The document does not specify an adjudication method like "2+1" or "3+1" for establishing ground truth or evaluating the test set for any of the AI features. The ground truth for training and validation is derived from the "acquired datasets" which are considered the ground truth due to data manipulation and augmentation from these high-quality source images. For Deep Resolve Boost for TSE, a "radiologist evaluation" is mentioned, implying expert review without detailing a specific adjudication protocol.


5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

The document does not indicate that a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done to measure the improvement of human readers with AI assistance versus without AI assistance. The evaluations focus on the standalone performance of the AI algorithms in improving image quality metrics and, in one instance (Deep Resolve Boost for TSE, radiologist evaluation), the suitability for clinical diagnostics, rather than the impact on human reader performance.


6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance

Yes, standalone (algorithm only) performance was done. The descriptions for each Deep Resolve feature focus entirely on the algorithm's performance in terms of quantitative image quality metrics (PSNR, SSIM, NMSE, MSE, LPIPS), visual inspection for artifacts, and improvements over conventional techniques. There is no mention of a "human-in-the-loop" component in the described performance evaluations for these AI features, except for the "radiologist evaluation" for Deep Resolve Boost for TSE which assessed clinical suitability of the output images, not reader performance with the AI.


7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • For Deep Resolve Swift Brain, Deep Resolve Boost for FL3D_VIBE & SPACE, and Deep Resolve Sharp for FL3D_VIBE & SPACE:

    • The ground truth used was the acquired datasets (raw MRI data). The input data for the AI models was then "retrospectively created from the ground truth by data manipulation and augmentation" (e.g., undersampling k-space, adding noise, cropping, creating sub-volumes, cropping k-space to simulate low-resolution input from high-resolution output). This means the AI models were trained to learn the mapping from manipulated (e.g., noisy, low-resolution, undersampled) inputs to the original, high-quality acquired image data.
  • For Deep Resolve Boost for TSE:

    • Similar to above, the "acquired training/validation datasets" were considered the ground truth. Input data was generated by "data manipulation and augmentation" (e.g., discarding k-space lines, lowering SNR, mirroring k-space data).

In essence, the AI models are trained to restore or enhance images to resemble the high-quality, fully acquired MRI data that serves as the reference ground truth.


8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Deep Resolve Swift Brain: 20,076 slices
  • Deep Resolve Boost for FL3D_VIBE and Deep Resolve Boost for SPACE: 81% of 1265 measurements. (This equates to approximately 1024 measurements).
  • Deep Resolve Sharp for FL3D_VIBE and Deep Resolve Sharp for SPACE: 70% of 500 measurements. (This equates to 350 measurements).
  • Deep Resolve Boost for TSE: More than 23,250 slices (93% of the total dataset).

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

For all Deep Resolve features, the ground truth for the training set was established from acquired MRI datasets (either "in-house measurements" or from "collaboration partners"). These acquired datasets are implicitly considered the "true" or "high-quality" images. The AI models are designed to process inputs that mimic suboptimal acquisition conditions (e.g., undersampled k-space, lower SNR, lower resolution) and generate outputs that match these high-quality acquired images, which serve as the ground truth for learning. The process involved:

  • Retrospective creation: Input data was created retrospectively from the acquired ground truth data.
  • Data manipulation and augmentation: This involved techniques such as:
    • Discarding k-space lines (undersampling).
    • Lowering the SNR level by adding Gaussian noise to k-space data.
    • Uniformly-random cropping of training data.
    • Creating sub-volumes of acquired data.
    • Cropping k-space to generate low-resolution inputs corresponding to high-resolution ground truth.
    • Mirroring of k-space data.

This approach demonstrates an unsupervised or self-supervised learning paradigm where the ground truth is derived directly from the complete and high-fidelity raw data, and the AI is trained to reconstruct or enhance images from degraded inputs to match this ideal ground truth.

Dear Alina Goodman:

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/cfdocs/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

Deep Resolve Swift Brain:

Test result summaryThe impact of the network has been characterized by several quality metrics such as peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index (SSIM) and normalized mean squared error (NMSE). Additionally, images were inspected visually to ensure that potential artefacts are detected that are not well captured by the metrics.After successful passing of the quality metrics tests, work-in-progress packages of the network were delivered and evaluated in clinical settings with collaboration partners.
Test setupEquipment: 3T and 1.5T MRI scanners.Protocols: representative protocols (T1, T2*, T2, T2 FLAIR).Body region: brain.Sample size: 29,740 2D slices.Sample source: in-house measurement.Note: Due to the network architecture, attributes like gender, age and ethnicity are not relevant to the training data.Dataset split:Training: 20,076 slicesValidation:1.5T Validation: 3,616 slices (1.5T validation);3T Validation: 6,048 slices (3T validation).Note: Data split maintained similar data distribution (e.g. contrast, orientation, field strength, …) in both training and validation datasets.
Patient CharacteristicsNo clinical subgroups have been defined for the datasets.
Reference standardThe acquired datasets represent the ground truth for the training and validation. Input data was retrospectively created from the ground truth by data manipulation and augmentation. This process includes further under-sampling of the data by discarding k-space lines, lowering of the SNR level by addition of Gaussian noise to k-space data and uniformly-random cropping of the training data along the readout direction.
Data independencyDatasets for training and testing were split prior to training (see Test Setup field above).

Deep Resolve Boost for FL3D_VIBE and Deep Resolve Boost for SPACE:

Test result summaryQuantitative evaluations of structural similarity index (SSIM), peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR) and mean squared error (MSE) metrics showed a convergence of the training and improvements compared to conventional parallel imaging. An inspection of the test images did not reveal any negative impact to the image quality. The function has been used either to acquire images faster or to improve image quality.
Test setupEquipment: 0.55T, 1.5T and 3T scanners

Page 25

Protocols: representative measurement protocols (T1, T2 and PD with and without fat saturation) which have been altered for training (e.g. to increase SNR, increase resolution or reduce acceleration).Body regions: broad range of body regionsUsed coils: broad range of coils to cover the dedicated body regionsSample size: 27,679 3D patches from 1265 measurementsDataset split: Training: 81% of the 1265 measurementsValidation: 19% of the 1265 measurementsNote: Data split maintained similar data distribution (e.g., contrast, orientation, field strength, …) in both training and validation datasets.Sample source: in-house measurements (training and validation) and collaboration partners (testing)
Patient CharacteristicsGender distribution:- Male: 53%- Female 47%Age: for training and validation.- 19 - 45: 14%- 46 - 65: 43%- 66 - 89: 43%Clinical subgroups: No clinical subgroups have been defined for the datasets.
Reference standardThe acquired datasets (as described above) represent the ground truth for the training and validation. Input data was retrospectively created from the ground truth by data manipulation and augmentation. This process includes further undersampling of the data by discarding k-space lines as well as creating sub-volumes of the acquired data.
Data independencyDatasets determined for training and validation were split prior to training along individual acquisitions to ensure that there is no mixture of sub-volumes stemming from the same acquisition.

Deep Resolve Sharp for FL3D_VIBE and Deep Resolve Sharp for SPACE

Test result summaryThe impact of the Deep Resolve Sharp network has been characterized by several quality metrics such as peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index (SSIM), and perceptual loss. The tests include rating and an evaluation of image sharpness by intensity profile comparisons of reconstruction with and without Deep Resolve Sharp. Both tests show increased edge sharpness and reduced Gibb's artifacts.
Test setupEquipment: 0.55T, 1.5T and 3T MRI scannersProtocols: representative measurement protocols (T1, T2 and PD with and without fat saturation) which have been altered (e.g. to increase SNR, increase resolution or reduce acceleration)Body regions: broad range of different body regions.Used coils: broad range of coils to cover the dedicated body regionsSample size: approx. 13,000 high resolution 3D patches from 500 measurements.Dataset split: Training: 70% of the 500 measurements.

Page 26

Validation: 30% of the 500 measurementsNote: Data split maintained similar data distribution (e.g., contrast, orientation, field strength, …) in both training and validation datasets.Sample source: in-house measurements
Patient CharacteristicsGender distribution:- Male: 66.6%- Female 33.4%Age: for training and validation.- 19 - 45: 8.4%- 46 - 65: 40.2%- 66 - 89: 51.4%Clinical subgroups: No clinical subgroups have been defined for the datasets.
Reference standardThe acquired datasets represent the ground truth for the training and validation. Input data was retrospectively created from the ground truth by data manipulation. k-space data has been cropped such that only the center part of the data was used as input. With this method corresponding low-resolution data as input and high-resolution data as output / ground truth were created for training and validation.
Data independencyThe high-resolution datasets were split to 70% training and 30% validation datasets before training to ensure independence of them. The input and output variables of the network have been derived from the same dataset so that no confounders exist for the training methodology.

Deep Resolve Boost for TSE

Test result summaryThe evaluation on the test dataset confirmed very similar metrics in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio (PSNR), structural similarity index (SSIM) and learned perceptual image patch similarity metrics (LPIPS) for the predicate and the modified network with both outperforming conventional GRAPPA as the reference. Visual evaluations confirmed statistically significant reduction of banding artifacts with no significant changes in sharpness and detail visibility. In addition, the radiologist evaluation revealed no difference in suitability for clinical diagnostics between updated and cleared predicate network.The function as on the predicate devices was modified to the subject devices but the training and testing from the predicate devices still fits.
Test setupEquipment: 0.55T, 1.5T and 3T MRI scannersProtocols: representative protocols (T1, T2 and PD with and without fat saturation)Body regions: broad range of different body regionsUsed coils: broad range of coils to cover the dedicated body regionsTesting of the Deep Resolve Boost network has been described in the reference and predicate device submissions. Additional tests have been performed to evaluate the banding artifact reduction capabilities of the updated network.Dataset split: Training: more than 23250 slices (93%)

Page 27

Validation: more than 1750 slices (7%)Additional test dataset for banding artifact reduction: more than 2000 slicesFor training and validation of the network, the identical data was used as for the initial device submission (K213693).Note: Data split maintained similar data distribution (e.g., contrast, orientation, field strength, …) in both training and validation datasets.Sample source: in-house measurements and collaboration partners
Patient CharacteristicsDue to reasons of data privacy, gender, age and ethnicity during data collection have not been recorded. Due to the network architecture, attributes like gender, age and ethnicity are not relevant to the training data.No clinical subgroups have been defined for the collected dataset
Reference standardThe acquired training/validation datasets (identical to the initial submission K213693) represent the ground truth for the training and validation. Input data was retrospectively created from the ground truth by data manipulation and augmentation. This process includes further undersampling of the data by discarding k-space lines, lowering of the SNR level by addition of noise and mirroring of k-space data.
Data independencyTraining and validation datasets were kept independent from each other during training and validation. The acquired datasets (one dataset consists of a group of multiple slices) were split into 93% training and 7% validation data prior to the training. A similar distribution was maintained for training and validation data. The test dataset for banding artifact reduction was acquired after the release of the predicate network and is therefore independent of the training/validation data.

The results from each set of tests demonstrate that the device performs as intended and is thus substantially equivalent to the predicate device to which it has been compared.
