The Leksell Stereotactic System is a system intended for localization (spatial reference) for cranial surgery using X-Ray, or CT and MRI image data.
The Leksell Stereotactic System is a stereotaxic instrument and accessories which functions on the center-of-the-arc principle. The basic components of the system are a cartcsian coordinate frame and a semi-circular arc. The system has been developed as a modular design with dedicated components and a range of optional accessories. Accessories are available for stereotactic micro-surgery and functional interventions, target localization, diagnostic and therapeutic procedures, and Gamma Knife surgery.
The provided text describes a 510(k) submission for the Elekta Leksell Stereotactic System, where the device is demonstrated to be substantially equivalent to predicate devices. The submission focuses on product characteristics and performance relative to existing, cleared devices, rather than a standalone clinical study with specific acceptance criteria in the manner of a novel AI/software medical device.
Therefore, much of the requested information (such as specific performance metrics, sample sizes, expert qualifications, and ground truth methodologies often associated with AI/ML evaluations) is not present in this type of traditional medical device submission.
Here's an analysis based on the provided text, highlighting what can be extracted and what information is not available:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
| Acceptance Criteria (Implied) | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Accuracy and Repeatability in performing its intended function. | "The Leksell Stereotactic System has been demonstrated to perform as intended with accuracy and repeatability." |
| Material Compatibility with MR scanners of low frequencies. | "The system have been shown to be compatible when used in MR scanners of low frequencies." |
| Technological Equivalence to predicate devices. | "[Fundamental technical characteristics are] similar to those of the predicate devices and are listed on the comparison charts provided in this 510(k) submission." |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Not Available. The document states "Complete results of performance testing of the Leksell Stereotactic System have been included the 510(k) submission," but the specific details of the test set, including sample size or data provenance, are not provided in this summary. This generally pertains to engineering bench testing rather than clinical study data for this type of device.
3. 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/Not Available. For a stereotactic system, "ground truth" would typically refer to physical measurements or engineering precision rather than expert human interpretation of medical images to establish a diagnosis or finding. The document does not describe the use of human experts in this manner.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not Applicable/Not Available. Adjudication methods are typically used in studies involving human interpretation or subjective assessments. The performance testing for this device would likely involve objective physical measurements and engineering specifications, where adjudication is not typically relevant.
5. 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. This is not an AI/software device. It is a physical stereotactic system. Therefore, an MRMC study and effects on human readers with/without AI assistance are not relevant to this submission.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm. Its performance is inherent to its mechanical and functional design, often evaluated in a standalone bench-testing environment.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- Implied: For a stereotactic system, the "ground truth" would be established through precision engineering measurements and physical accuracy standards. This would involve comparing the system's calculated coordinates and physical targeting capabilities against known, independently verified reference points or specifications. However, the specific methodology is not detailed.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not Applicable. This device is not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not Applicable. This device is not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.
