Intended Use

EXPERT-XL® Total Body Acquisition and Analysis Software is used with the EXPERT-XL® bone densitometer system. This software acquires and estimates BMD, Lean Tissue Mass, and Fat Tissue Mass for the Total Body and sub-regions.

The use of the EXPERT-XL® Total Body Acquisition and Analysis Software is restricted to prescription use only.

Device Description

The EXPERT-XL Total Body Acquisition and Analysis Software is an accessory software option for estimation of Bone Mineral Density (BMD in g/cm), Lean Tissue Mass (g), and Fat Tissue Mass (g) for the Total Body and sub-regions.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document describes the EXPERT-XL Total Body Acquisition and Analysis Software, an accessory option for estimating Bone Mineral Density (BMD), Lean Tissue Mass, and Fat Tissue Mass for the Total Body and sub-regions.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study information:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

The core acceptance criteria for the EXPERT-XL Total Body Acquisition and Analysis Software are based on its correlation and precision compared to the predicate DPX series products.

Acceptance Criteria (Predicate DPX Series Performance)Reported Device Performance (EXPERT-XL Software)
High correlation for Total Body BMD estimationsHighly correlated (r=0.97) with DPX series
High correlation for Lean and Fat Tissue Mass estimationsHighly correlated (r=0.95) with DPX series
Short term precision (%CV) for BMD0.4% (comparable to DPX series)
Short term precision (%CV) for Lean Tissue Mass3.1% (comparable to DPX series)
Short term precision (%CV) for Fat Tissue Mass4.8% (comparable to DPX series)
Acceptable radiation exposure5 mrem (higher than DPX series, but still low compared to maximum permissible dose)

Conclusion from document: The results are "Comparable to the DPX results with similar precision." And "No new safety and effectiveness concerns."


Study Information

The document does not detail a formal clinical study with a defined test set, ground truth, or expert involvement as might be expected for contemporary device submissions. Instead, it relies on a comparative study against a predicate device to establish substantial equivalence.

  1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):

    • The document does not specify a sample size for a test set. The evaluation is described in terms of "Scans of the Total Body on the EXPERT-XL densitometer" and comparison to "corresponding regions estimated with the DPX series of products." This suggests an internal validation against the predicate device's known performance.
    • Data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) is not mentioned.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g., radiologist with 10 years of experience):

    • Not applicable. The ground truth, in this context, is the performance of the legally marketed predicate device (DPX series). There's no mention of independent experts establishing a new "ground truth."
  3. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • Not applicable. There's no mention of an adjudication process as there isn't an independent "ground truth" establishment by multiple readers.
  4. 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:

    • No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. This device is an accessory software for a bone densitometer, performing quantitative measurements, not a diagnostic aid for human readers.
  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • Yes, this is effectively a standalone performance evaluation. The software directly calculates BMD, Lean Tissue Mass, and Fat Tissue Mass. Its performance is evaluated by comparing its output (correlation and precision) directly to the output of the predicate device.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

    • The "ground truth" for this submission is the performance of the legally marketed predicate device (Lunar DPX series). The EXPERT-XL software's outputs (BMD, lean, fat mass) were compared for correlation and precision against the equivalent outputs from the DPX series. This is a comparison against an established, cleared technology rather than a biological "ground truth" like pathology.
  7. The sample size for the training set:

    • The document does not mention a training set. This submission is for an accessory software that calculates established metrics, likely using known algorithms. It doesn't appear to involve machine learning that would require a distinct "training set."
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • Not applicable, as no training set is mentioned or implied.

DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE: 9.1

The EXPERT-XL Total Body Acquisition and Analysis Software is an accessory software option for estimation of Bone Mineral Density (BMD in g/cm), Lean Tissue Mass (g), and Fat Tissue Mass (g) for the Total Body and sub-regions.

SUMMARY OF TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS 9.2

Scans of the Total Body on the EXPERT-XL densitometer take approximately 3 minutes. The Total Body BMD estimations correlate highly (r=0.97) with corresponding regions estimated with the DPX series of products which already has 510(k) clearance. The Lean and Fat Tissue Mass estimations also correlate highly (r=0.95). The average short term precision (%CV) is 0.4% for BMD, 3.1 % for lean tissue mass, and 4.8% for fat tissue mass which is also comparable to that shown on the DPX series. The radiation exposure of 5 mrem is higher than that for the DPX series densitometers but remains low compared to the maximum permissible dose for the total body.

The results from the EXPERT-XL Total Body Acquisition and Analysis Software are The results from the EAT ENT ALL Foto Foto similar precision. No new safety and effectiveness Comparable to the DI A results RPPERT-XL Total Body software accessory.
