I apologize, but the provided text from the FDA 510(k) letter for the Markman Template System does not contain any information regarding acceptance criteria, device performance studies, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, or comparative effectiveness studies.
This document is solely an FDA clearance letter indicating that the device has been deemed "substantially equivalent" to a predicate device and can be marketed. It outlines regulatory requirements but does not delve into the technical details of device validation.
Therefore, I cannot provide a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance or answer the other specific questions you posed based on the given input.
