The Imaging Sciences International Inc. Panatome Imaging system is a multifunction computer controlled Tomographic X-Ray device for taking radiographs of the head and neck region. This device has the ability to provide panoramic and pluridirectional Tomographic images. The operators manual describes the computerized operator interface for selecting and executing the various radiographic procedures.
The panoramic function of this unit produces the same standard panoramic image as numerous other units in use for past several decades.
The tomographic function is also similar to other units in use for past few decades, except it employs complex motion to produce tomographic slices as opposed to more commonly used linear motion. Slices produced by a complex tomographic motion are superior and more accurate as compared to linear slices. Complex motion has been used by a few other units in the recent past.
Tomographic imaging is commonly used for TM Joint studies, mandible & maxilla for implant planning, sinuses, etc.
The Imaging Sciences International Inc. Panatome is a free standing Tomographic X-Ray machine that may also be affixed to the wall during installation for added stability. All of the Panatome functions such as kVcp, mA, exposure time and all motor functions are computer controlled. There is a touch screen monitor that will display the various technique factors.
The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the Imaging Sciences International Inc. Panatome Tomographic X-Ray machine. This summary establishes substantial equivalence to a predicate device and includes an assessment of non-clinical performance. However, it does not contain the specific details required to complete all sections of your request regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving device performance against those criteria.
Specifically, the document focuses on:
- Device Description and Intended Use: Explains what the Panatome does and its clinical applications.
- Technological Characteristics: Details the electrical and mechanical aspects of the device.
- Substantial Equivalence Claim: States that the Panatome is substantially equivalent to the CommCAT IS 2000.
- Non-Clinical Performance Assessment: Mentions that the Panatome produced radiographs of a step wedge and a phantom that were comparable with the CommCAT IS 2000 and are adequate for their intended use. This is the extent of the performance data provided.
The document does not include:
- A table of specific acceptance criteria.
- Detailed quantitative performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, resolution, signal-to-noise ratio).
- Information on sample size, data provenance, number or qualifications of experts, adjudication methods, or ground truth for a test set.
- Any mention of a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study or a standalone algorithm-only study.
- Sample size or ground truth details for a training set.
Therefore, I can only provide information based on what is available in the text.
Here's the breakdown of what can be extracted and what is missing:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
| Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Not explicitly defined as quantitative criteria in the document. The overall implicit acceptance criterion is "substantial equivalence" to the predicate device for its intended use. | Produced radiographs of a step wedge and a phantom that were comparable with the CommCAT IS 2000 and are adequate for their intended use. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
- Test Set Sample Size: Not specified. The "non-clinical performance" refers to the device producing radiographs of "a step wedge and a phantom." It does not indicate a large-scale test set of patient data.
- Data Provenance: Not specified. It's a non-clinical evaluation using phantoms, not human data.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts
- Number of Experts: Not specified.
- Qualifications of Experts: Not specified. The evaluation states "radiographs... were comparable with the CommCAT IS 2000 and are adequate for their intended use," implying some form of expert qualitative assessment, but no details are provided.
4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Adjudication Method: Not specified.
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, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not mentioned. The device is a traditional X-ray machine, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- No, a standalone algorithm-only performance study was not mentioned. The device is a hardware X-ray machine; there is no mention of an embedded AI algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
- For the non-clinical evaluation, the "ground truth" was likely derived from the known properties of the step wedge and phantom, which serve as standardized objects used to assess imaging quality (e.g., resolution, contrast, artifact presence). Comparison was made against images from the predicate device (CommCAT IS 2000).
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. This device is a hardware X-ray machine. There is no mention of an algorithm requiring a "training set."
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable. (See #8)
Summary of what's provided related to "acceptance criteria" and "study":
The document presents a non-clinical performance assessment designed to demonstrate "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device. The "study" involved generating radiographs of a step wedge and a phantom using the Panatome and comparing them to those produced by the CommCAT IS 2000. The "acceptance criteria" appear to be a qualitative assessment that the Panatome's images were "comparable" and "adequate for their intended use" when compared to the predicate. This is a common approach for 510(k) submissions for devices asserting substantial equivalence, especially for mature technologies like X-ray machines. This type of submission generally does not require the extensive clinical trial data or detailed performance metrics that would be associated with novel diagnostic algorithms or higher-risk devices.

Substantial Equivalence Claim: The Imaging Sciences International Inc. Panatome Tomographic X-Ray machine is substantially equivalent to the Imaging Sciences International Inc. CommCAT IS 2000 Tomographic X-Rav system.
Description Of The Device: The Imaging Sciences International Inc. Panatome is a free standing Tomographic X-Ray machine that may also be affixed to the wall during installation for added stability. All of the Panatome functions such as kVcp, mA, exposure time and all motor functions are computer controlled. There is a touch screen monitor that will display the various technique factors.
Intended Use Of The Device: The Imaging Sciences International Inc. Panatome Imaging system is a multifunction computer controlled Tomographic X-Ray device for taking radiographs of the head and neck region. This device has the ability to provide panoramic and pluridirectional Tomographic images. The operators manual describes the computerized operator interface for selecting and executing the various radiographic procedures.
The panoramic function of this unit produces the same standard panoramic image as numerous other units in use for past several decades.
The tomographic function is also similar to other units in use for past few decades, except it employs complex motion to produce tomographic slices as opposed to more commonly used linear motion. Slices produced by a complex tomographic motion are superior and more accurate as compared to linear slices. Complex motion has been used by a few other units in the recent past.
Tomographic imaging is commonly used for TM Joint studies, mandible & maxilla for implant planning, sinuses, etc.
Technological Characteristics Of The Device: The XR-910 technology is based on the Keystone X-Ray Intrex VSK, 510 (k) Number K931486.
The basic power supply consists of a full wave bridge rectifier, so connected that it may be operated on either 120 VAC or 220 VAC. 50 - 60 Hz power lines. This accomplished by changing jumpers in the power supply.
નું
{2}------------------------------------------------
At the output of the bridge rectifier, two very high capacity 250V filter capacitors smooth the rectified power, which is then presented to a voltage requlator, consisting of five transistors, amplifiers and a reference diode. This regulator regulates the voltage applied to a four diode transistor inverter chopper.
Another low voltage power supply, with its step down transformer, bridge rectifier, and associated filters, supply power to another regulator and a logic board, so connected as to control the technique factors and the "on - off" exposure of the X-Ray System.
The inverter is supplied by a 20 KHz signal that is developed on the logic board. This 20KHz alternately turns on and off the inverter to chop the DC power that has been generated in the power supply.
The 20KHz square wave is now transformed into 200 volt positive and negative pulses, this signal is then sent to the tubehead. In the tubehead the signal is supplied to a power output transformer, which raises the 200 volts to 6,000 volts. This 6,000 volts is now applied to a plus and minus multiplier PC boards. With its associated diodes and capacitors, the multiplier boards raise the 6,000 volt square wave to plus 35,000 and minus 35.000 volts. An X-Ray tube is placed between the two multiplier board outputs creating a potential across the X-Ray of 70,000 volts. The 20 KHz. 200 volt square wave may be adjusted upward and downward to create a kVp range from 50 kVp to 90 kVp in 1 kVp increments.
The filament of the X-Ray tube is also heated by the 20 KHz signal taken directly from the oscillator on the logic board. A rheostat is placed in series with the filament transformer. so it may be shunted out for fast heating of the filament, and switched back in during the exposure.
A voltage divider in the multiplier circuit of the tubehead allows the monitoring of the kVp. A current sample obtained from the primary of the power transformer allows the mA to be proportionately monitored within a 10% accuracy.
Two timers are included on the Timer PC board. One of the timers delays the exposure turn on until the filament has reached sufficient operating temperature. The second timer times the length of the desired exposure. The exposure time is can be programmed from 0.01 to 4.0 seconds in increments of 0.01 seconds. The clock for these timers operates at 1,000 KHz. and is divided down on the logic PC board.
{3}------------------------------------------------
In operation when, the exposure switch push button is depressed, the delay timer starts counting down a preprogrammed time that allows the filament to heat up to its proper temperature. When the delay timer has timed out the countdown of the exposure timer starts. At the end of the exposure, the exposure timer signals the inverter logic to cease operation, thereby shutting down both the high voltage anode and filament supplies, terminating the exposure.
Assessment of Non-Clinical Performance: During the evaluation, the Panatome produced radiographs of a step wedge and a phantom that were comparable with the CommCAT IS 2000 and are adequate for their intended use.
Conclusions of Non-Clinical Performance: The performance of the Imaging Sciences International Inc. Panatome during the non-clinical evaluation would indicate that the system is substantially equivalent mechanically, electrically and radiographically to the Imaging Sciences International Inc. CommCAT IS 2000.
