The intended uses of the Biopsy Digit are mammographic procedures requiring stereotactic guidance, such as fine needle aspiration, needle biopsy and guide wire placement. The intended uses are identical to those of the predicate device.
The Biopsy-Digit device uses two stereo images taken by a digital solid state camera to determine the location of a lesion in three dimensions. Once the coordinates of the lesion are determined by the Biopsy-Digit they are used to position a needle holder such that when the physician inserts the needle or guide-wire, the tip will be precisely positioned at the pre-determined coordinates.
The provided text does not contain specific acceptance criteria or a detailed study proving the device meets them. It describes the device's function, intended use, and substantial equivalence to a predicate device, but lacks the quantitative performance data needed to populate the requested table and answer several questions about a performance study.
Therefore, many of the requested fields will state "Not available in the provided text."
Here's a breakdown based on the available information:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
| Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Not available | Not available |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Sample Size (Test Set): Not available in the provided text.
- Data Provenance: Not available in the provided text.
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)
- Number of Experts: Not available in the provided text.
- Qualifications of Experts: Not available in the provided text.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Adjudication Method: Not available in the provided text. The document focuses on the mechanical and functional equivalence of the device, not on diagnostic performance where adjudication would be 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
- MRMC Study: Not available in the provided text. The device is a stereotactic guidance system, not an AI-powered image analysis tool that would typically be evaluated in an MRMC study for reader improvement.
- Effect Size: Not applicable, as no MRMC study is mentioned.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Standalone Performance Study: Not available in the provided text. The device is described as a system that facilitates a physician's procedure, implying human-in-the-loop operation, rather than a standalone AI algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- Type of Ground Truth: Not available in the provided text. The submission focuses on the mechanical accuracy of the device in determining lesion location and guiding a needle, rather than a diagnostic outcome where "ground truth" (e.g., pathology) would typically be established for diagnostic accuracy.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Sample Size (Training Set): Not applicable. The device described appears to be a mechanical device based on "human binocular vision" principles, rather than a machine learning model that requires a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Ground Truth Establishment (Training Set): Not applicable, as the device does not appear to be a machine learning model requiring a training set.

Device Description 3.
3.1. Function
The Biopsy-Digit device uses two stereo images taken by a digital solid state camera to determine the location of a lesion in three dimensions. Once the coordinates of the lesion are determined by the Biopsy-Digit they are used to position a needle holder such that when the physician inserts the needle or guide-wire, the tip will be precisely positioned at the pre-determined coordinates.
{1}------------------------------------------------
3.2. Scientific Concepts:
The Biopsy-Digit works on the same principle as human binocular vision. Two images of the same object are taken with the x-ray source in two different positions. Objects between the source and film plane appear at a different location as the source is moved from position A to B as shown in the figure below. Since the geometry of the system is fixed, given the apparent position of the object in the two views, shown as C and D in the figure, the true position of the object can be calculated.
Image /page/1/Figure/3 description: The image shows a diagram of a source emitting rays to points A and B. Above the source, there is a film plane labeled with points C and D. A point is located between the source and the film plane, with dashed lines connecting it to the source and the film plane. The diagram illustrates the relationship between the source, the points A and B, and the film plane.
Physical And Performance Characteristics: 3.3.
Mammography has been demonstrated to be the best imaging choice for screening of women for breast cancer by many studies and is currently recommended as a routine procedure for women over 50 vears of age. Mammography, however, has been shown to have a high rate of false positive examinations. Stereotactic needle localization has been shown to be a minimally invasive procedure for obtaining the tissue samples needed determining the lesion type for a positive mammography examination. The procedure removes much less tissue than and produces much less scar tissue than conventional surgical biopsy.
4. Device Intended Use:
- 4.1. The intended uses of the Biopsy Digit are mammographic procedures requiring stereotactic guidance, such as fine needle aspiration, needle biopsy and quide wire placement. The intended uses are identical to those of the predicate device.
{2}------------------------------------------------
Device Technological Characteristics: 5.
- The characteristics of the Biopsy-Digit system compare 5.1. substantially with the Fischer Mammovision predicate device, in both materials used, technology applied, and functional methodology. Differences of note do not affect safety and effectiveness of the device, intended use, or application methods. The device operates in a manner substantially equivalent to other cleared devices in this category, and performs as well as the predicate Mammovision.
5.2. Biocompatibility
The components of the Biopsy-Digit that come in direct contact with the patient (paddles, supports, holders, Digital camera) are of the same materials as the the Biopsy-M (Premarket notification K982049)
