Yes
The device description explicitly uses the term "automated intelligent microscope cell locating device" and mentions "color and pattern recognition techniques," which are common components of AI/ML systems used in image analysis. While it doesn't use the specific terms "AI" or "ML," the description of its function strongly suggests the use of intelligent algorithms for cell identification.

No
The device is used for diagnostic purposes, specifically for identifying an enzyme in blood cells to differentiate types of leukemia. It does not provide any treatment or therapy.

Yes

The device aids in differentiating Granulocytic leukemia from reactions resembling true leukemia, which is a diagnostic purpose. It identifies an enzyme to distinguish between diseases.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of software and includes hardware components such as a keyboard, color monitors, microscope, printer, and an automatic slide handling and scanning mechanism.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states the device is for the "histological identification of the enzyme leucocyte alkaline phosphatase in neutrophilic granulocytes to differentiate: Granulocytic leukemia; and Reactions that resemble true leukemia". This is a diagnostic purpose, aiming to identify a specific biological marker (enzyme activity) in a biological sample (cells) to aid in the diagnosis of a disease (leukemia) or related conditions.
  • Device Description: The device analyzes "cells stained with alkaline phosphatase reagent system FAST VIOLET B SALT". This involves the use of a reagent to prepare a biological sample for analysis, which is a hallmark of in vitro diagnostics.
  • Input Imaging Modality: The input is "Microscopic examination of prepared cells". This involves analyzing biological material outside of the body.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies describe clinical trials where the device was used to measure "neurophilic alkaline phosphatase (NAP) measurements" in "patient samples". This further confirms the device's use in analyzing biological samples from patients for diagnostic purposes.
  • Predicate Devices: The predicate devices include a "Sigma Diagnostics' alkaline phosphatase reagent system FAST VIOLET B SALT catalog No. 85-0", which is a reagent system used in IVD procedures. This suggests the device operates within the context of established IVD methods.

Based on the intended use, the analysis of biological samples outside the body using reagents, and the context of clinical trials for diagnostic purposes, this device clearly fits the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

No
The letter does not mention that the FDA has reviewed and approved or cleared a Predetermined Change Control Plan (PCCP) for this specific device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

Automated scanning microscopy work station for histological identification of the enzyme leucocyte alkaline phosphatase in neutrophilic granulocytes to differentiate: Granulocytic leukemia; a malignant disease characterized by excessive overgrowth of granulocytes in bone marrow, and Reactions that resemble true leukemia, such as those occurring in severe infections.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

Clinical trials were used to obtain data to compare the analytical performance, accuracy, and precision of the MDx 2000 candidate device to that of the predicate devices. The clinical trials were conducted in accordance with a written MicroVision Medical Systems, Inc. protocol and were conducted on a model MDx 2000 device (three different devices; not the same device) at three different sites.

The following characteristics of the clinical trials conducted were carefully selected to help ensure the conducted were carefaring and statistically valid:

  • The number of clinical sites
  • The quantity of patient samples per site
  • The quantity of stained smears examined
  • The number of times a smear stained slide was examined
  • The number of qualified medical technologists examining the slides
  • The design of the double blind study
  • The number of times the same "control" slide(s) was run on each of the three devices to determine was full on caon on for each "control" slide
  • The number of times the same "control" slide(s) was run on each of the three devices to establish was full on out on of the neutrophil alkaline phosphatase (NAP)
  • Running the "control" slide(s) on each device at the beginning and the end of each daily run on each of the candidate devices to evaluate the consistency of the devices

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Clinical trials were conducted at 3 clinical sites with 125 patients tested. The MDx 2000 Digital Analyzer candidate device was found to provide neurophilic alkaline phosphatase (NAP) measurements that had similar precision within site. Use of the candidate device provided more between-site consistency in reported results than that for the comparative Sigma NAP kit manual method, and eliminated the considerable between-technologist variability that occurred at each of the study sites. The accuracy of the MDx 2000 Digital Analyzer candidate device data was assessed by method comparison linear regression against the manual method. At two study sites, the results were directly comparable with little clinical bias between the two methods. At one of the study sites, there was considerable negative bias of the candidate device against the manual method, but this was consistent and characterizable, and is assumed to be removable by adjustment (calibration) of the local reference range. The candidate device was proved comparable to the candidate devices at the other sites by cross-validation with control slides.

to 4+ on the basis of quantity and intensity of precipitated dye within the cytoplasm of the cells. The sum of the reading of 100 observed cells was regarded as the "score" for a given blood smear. The ratings were based on the number, size, and intensity of staining of the granules.

Conclusion:

The value of assessing leukocyte alkaline phosphatase activity as an aid in the diagnosis of certain hematologic diseases is now well established. Such assessment is particularly valuable in distinguishing chronic granulocytic leukemia from leukemoid reactions and from other myeloproliferative diseases as well as in distinguishing polycythemia vera from secondary polycythemia.

Cytochemical technics are suitable staining methods and have been used in many laboratories as routine procedures. By means of these staining methods and in conjunction with a "scoring" procedure, it is possible to obtain a numerical representation of the degree of enzyme activity of leukocytes on a given blood smear and thus to compare enzyme activity disease states with the normal.

Assessment of bias (accuracy) and imprecision as generally described in the National Committee for Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS) documents EP9-A and EP5-T

Bias of the MD, 2000 candidate device compared with the predicate devices was based on the use of linear regression comparison of the averages of the devices versus the average manual count.

  • Statistical assessment of the estimated bias using the appropriate t-test.
    • Analysis of variance of the data to estimate the variance contributions of the technologists, slides, replication, and other variables.

21 CFR 807.92(b)(3): The conclusion drawn from the non-clinical and/or clinical tests that demonstrate the MDx 2000 candidate device is as safe, is as effective, and performs as well or better than the predicate devices:

The MD, 2000 Digital Analyzer candidate device was found to provide neurophilic alkaline phosphatase (NAP) measurements that had similar precision within site over 125 patients tested at 3 clinical sites. Use of the candidate device provided more between-site consistency in reported results than that for the comparative Sigma NAP kit manual method, and eliminated the considerable between-technologist variability that occurred at each of the study sites.
