The digitizer has the resolution capable of faithfully digitizing standard and mammographic x-ray films.

Device Description

The Imation™ Trimatic™ Digital System is intended for use as a system to convert radiographic films into a digitized format for use in a hospital or other clinical image management system. The digitized image receives patient and exam information and is then forwarded into a DICOM compliant image management system. The digitizer has the resolution capable of faithfully digitizing standard and mammographic x-rays.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a medical device, the Imation™ Trimatic™ Digital System, and its 510(k) submission for clearance. However, it does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study that specifically proves the device meets such criteria in terms of clinical performance or AI effectiveness.

The "Performance Data" section lists voluntary standards related to safety (UL, IEC), laser safety (21 CFR 1040, IEC), and electromagnetic compatibility (EN standards). It does not describe any performance metrics for image quality, diagnostic accuracy, or clinical outcomes that would be typical acceptance criteria for a medical imaging device.

Therefore, many of the requested sections regarding acceptance criteria, performance, and study design cannot be extracted from the provided text.

Here's what can be extracted and what cannot:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

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

  • Not provided. The document focuses on regulatory compliance, safety, and technical specifications, not a clinical test set.

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 provided. This information would be relevant for an AI or diagnostic performance study, which is not described.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

  • Not provided.

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 MRMC study was done or reported. This device is a digitizer, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. The document explicitly states: "Digital images generated by the Trimatic Digital System are interpreted by competent medical practitioners, offering ample opportunity for competent human intervention where warranted." This indicates no AI assistance for interpretation is part of this device.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

  • Not applicable/Not provided. The device is a digitizer; it does not perform standalone diagnostic algorithms.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

  • Not applicable/Not provided. The ground truth for the listed performance data relates to compliance with engineering and safety standards, and whether technical specifications (like resolution, bit depth) are met. It does not involve diagnostic ground truth.

8. The sample size for the training set:

  • Not applicable/Not provided. This device is a film digitizer, not an AI model requiring a training set.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

  • Not applicable/Not provided.

Device:Trade name:Imation™ Trimatic™ Digital System
Common name:PACS System
Classification name:Image Processing System LLZ
21 CFR 892.2020 Class II

Predicate device:

The Imation™ Trimatic Digital System is comprised of cleared or exempt devices with the exception of the digitizer, which is identical to the digitizer in clearance (K982785) except for minor film feeding hardware and communication software.

Description and Intended Use of Device:

The Imation™ Trimatic™ Digital System is intended for use as a system to convert radiographic films into a digitized format for use in a hospital or other clinical image management system. The digitized image receives patient and exam information and is then forwarded into a DICOM compliant image management system. The digitizer has the resolution capable of faithfully digitizing standard and mammographic x-rays.

Technological Characteristics:

The Imation™ Trimatic™ Film Digitizer uses a laser scanner to scan and digitize the film image. The digital image has 12 bit image depth and is in Dicom 3.0 format. The scan rate and spot size are adjusted depending on the film type to accurately capture either 5 or 10 line pairs per mm for standard and mammographic films, respectively.

Dear Mr. Slavens:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we 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 (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or requlations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
