Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study details for the Prostate Volume Assist (PVA) AI feature, based on the provided text:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Acceptance Criteria (Stated Goal) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Segmentation algorithm performance (standard metric of similarity for testing) | "The test passed." (No specific metric value provided) |
Initial caliper placement for 9018 transducer (compared to manual placement) | Expected deviation: 11% +/- 6% |
Initial caliper placement for 9048 transducer (compared to manual placement) | Expected deviation: 7% +/- 15% |
Workflow improvement (overall goal of PVA) | Verified by visual evaluations by clinical experts validation testing, comparing initial algorithm placement to manual placement. The purpose was to compare PVA volume calculation with clinical personnel's volume measurement. |
2. Sample Size and Data Provenance
- Test Set (Clinical Validation):
- Healthy Images: 975
- Diseased Images: 1461 (includes images from the Holland dataset specifically used for testing)
- Total Test Images: 2436
- Data Provenance: Czech Republic, Holland.
- Retrospective/Prospective: The text does not explicitly state retrospective or prospective, but as it's referred to as "data acquired in Amsterdam, Holland" and "data from curved and linear arrays," it implies retrospective use of existing data for a test set. The use of a "Holland dataset that are only used as Test images" further supports a retrospective approach.
3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth Establishment
- Number of Experts: Not explicitly stated as a single number, but referred to as "clinical personnel" who had "an average of about 15 years' experience in ultrasound." This suggests multiple experts.
- Qualifications: Clinical personnel with "an average of about 15 years' experience in ultrasound." (Specific roles like radiologist or sonographer are not mentioned, but the context implies experienced ultrasound practitioners).
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Adjudication Method: Not explicitly stated as a formal adjudication process like 2+1 or 3+1. However, the "human caliper setters scored the images individually," and the comparison was made between the "automatic initial placement" and "manual placement by clinical personnel." This indicates a direct comparison to individual expert measurements, rather than a consensus-driven ground truth process for each image.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
- Was an MRMC study done? A formal MRMC study, as typically understood for comparative effectiveness of AI vs. human readers, was not explicitly detailed. The study focused on comparing the AI's initial caliper placement and volume calculation against manual placement by clinical personnel, framed as a "workflow improvement."
- Effect Size of Human Reader Improvement: Not applicable, as the study design was not an MRMC to measure human reader improvement with AI assistance. The AI's performance (initial caliper placement deviation) was measured against human manual placement.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study
- Was a standalone study done? Yes, the "segmentation part of the algorithm is tested using a standard metric of similarity," which represents a standalone performance test. The numerical result for this specific metric is not provided beyond "The test passed."
- The comparison of "automatic initial placement" to "manual placement by clinical personnel" also evaluates the standalone performance of the AI's caliper placement, even though it's compared against human input.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
- Ground Truth Type: Expert consensus for the training data (implied, see point 9) and individual expert manual measurements for the test data ("The validator used 2 distance measurements (using 4 calipers) on the transverse image and one distance measurement (using 2 calipers) on the sagittal image."). The purpose was to compare the prostate volume calculation of PVA with volume measurement performed by clinical personnel. So the ground truth for volume measurement is based on clinical personnel's manual calculations.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
- Healthy Images: 505
- Diseased Images: 13447
- Synthesized Data: 4104
- Total Training Images: 18056
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
- The document implies that the ground truth for the training set was established through expert annotation/labeling, as it refers to the test volumes being "completely distinct from the ones used during training process" and mentions that the algorithm uses both "segmentation and caliper placement." The process of generating synthesized data also suggests a controlled method for creating labeled examples, but the specifics of human involvement in training data ground truth are not detailed beyond inferring that it must have been expert-derived to train an algorithm providing "initial caliper placement."

Study Details for Prostate Volume Assist (PVA)
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Test Images Total: 975 (Healthy) + 1461 (Diseased) = 2436 images.
- Data Provenance:
- Czech Republic (for 9018 transducer data)
- Amsterdam, Holland (for 9048 transducer data)
- Retrospective/Prospective: Not explicitly stated, but the description "Data from a clinical end-user test in the Czech Republic" and "data acquired in Amsterdam, Holland" suggests retrospective use of collected data for the test set.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- Number of Experts: Not specified as a precise number (e.g., "3 experts"). It states "clinical experts validation testing" and "The human caliper setters scored the images individually."
- Qualifications of Experts: "The clinical personnel had an average of about 15 years' experience in ultrasound."
-
Adjudication method for the test set:
- The document implies individual scoring by "human caliper setters" rather than an explicit adjudication method like 2+1 or 3+1. "The human caliper setters scored the images individually." The comparison is then made against these individual manual placements.
-
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 comparative effectiveness study involving human readers improving with AI assistance was directly described. The study focused on validating the algorithm's performance against manual placement, indicating a standalone performance assessment of the AI. The PVA feature is described as "a workflow improvement to an existing prostate volume measurement and calculation tool" and "allows a faster and more efficient workflow," but specific effect sizes for human reader improvement with AI assistance (e.g., reduction in reading time, increase in accuracy) are not provided.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Yes, a standalone performance assessment of the algorithm was done. The acceptance criteria and reported device performance directly evaluate "the automatic initial caliper placement" and "the prostate volume calculation of PVA" against manual placement, implying the algorithm's performance without human input for the initial placement. The final verification involved visual evaluation by clinical experts comparing the initial algorithmic placement to manual placement.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- Expert Manual Measurement: The ground truth for volume estimation was established by "manually placed calipers" by "clinical personnel" with extensive experience.
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Training Images Total: 505 (Healthy) + 13447 (Diseased) + 4104 (Synthesized data) = 18056 images.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- The document does not explicitly detail the method for establishing ground truth for the training set. It only mentions the types of images (healthy, diseased, synthesized) used for training. However, given that the validation uses expert manual measurements as ground truth, it is highly probable that the training data also utilized expert annotations or measurements, potentially with additional synthesized data to augment the dataset.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document does not specify a "test set" in terms of patient data or images for evaluating the clinical performance of the device itself. The primary method for demonstrating substantial equivalence relies on bench testing against recognized standards for diagnostic ultrasound systems and transducers.
The data provenance for the non-clinical performance data is therefore from bench testing conducted by BK Medical ApS. The country of origin of this data would be Denmark, where BK Medical ApS is located. The nature of the data is retrospective in the sense that it refers to established standard tests.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications
The concept of "experts" establishing ground truth in the context of this submission is not applicable in the typical sense of evaluating AI models. Since clinical studies or evaluations using a test set of patient data were not deemed necessary for this 510(k) submission, there are no details provided about experts establishing ground truth for such a test set.
4. Adjudication Method
As there was no "test set" of clinical cases requiring expert interpretation and adjudication for this 510(k) submission, no adjudication method is mentioned or relevant.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
No. The document explicitly states: "Clinical Studies: Not applicable - clinical studies were not required to support substantial equivalence to the predicate device." Therefore, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not performed, and no effect size for human readers improving with or without AI assistance is provided.
6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop) Performance Was Done
No. The device is an ultrasound system with various imaging modes and functions; it is not described as an AI algorithm in the context of this submission. Its performance is evaluated as a diagnostic tool used by "qualified and trained healthcare professionals."
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
For the purpose of this 510(k) submission, the "ground truth" for the device's performance is established by its conformance to recognized industry standards (IEC, NEMA, AAMI/ANSI/ISO) for diagnostic ultrasound systems and transducers. This includes:
- Engineering specifications and technical performance metrics related to image quality, acoustic output, electrical safety, EMC, and software functionality.
- Established safety and effectiveness profiles of the predicate device (BK2300 Ultrasound Scanner System – K161960).
There is no mention of pathology, expert consensus on clinical cases, or outcomes data being used as ground truth for this submission, as clinical studies were not required.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
This question is not applicable. The device is a diagnostic ultrasound system, not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set of data in the sense typically understood for machine learning models.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
This question is not applicable, as there is no mention of a training set or AI/ML components for which ground truth would need to be established in this 510(k) summary. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate ultrasound device through engineering and performance testing.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document does not explicitly describe a "test set" in the context of a clinical performance study using patient data for specific diagnostic claims for AI. For an ultrasound system, "testing" primarily refers to technical verification and validation, and acoustic output measurements.
- The section on Acoustic Output Reporting states it's "made according to the standards required by 'Information for Manufacturers Seeking Clearance of Diagnostic Ultrasound Systems and Transducers, FDA, CDRH, September 9, 2008'". These standards define measurement procedures and reporting requirements, but not a patient-based test set size.
- The document also notes that "All transducers in this submission have previous been cleared," simplifying the current submission to changes to the system rather than the transducers themselves.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable in the context of a clinical test set for AI, as this submission focuses on the safety and functional equivalence of an ultrasound system, not AI performance.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of those Experts
Not applicable. This FDA 510(k) submission is for a general diagnostic ultrasound system (bk2300) and its various transducers. It does not describe an AI/CADe (Computer-Aided Detection/Diagnosis) system that requires expert-established ground truth on a clinical test set. The "performance" claims are about physical parameters and safety limits, not diagnostic accuracy in interpreting images.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. As there is no clinical test set for diagnostic performance evaluation or AI, no adjudication method would have been used.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and Effect Size
Not applicable. This submission is for an ultrasound imaging system, not an AI or CADe product. MRMC studies are typically used for evaluating the effectiveness of AI/CADe systems in improving human reader performance.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
Not applicable. This is not an AI algorithm being submitted for standalone performance evaluation. It is a diagnostic ultrasound system.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The "ground truth" for the device's performance claims (e.g., acoustic output, electrical safety, biocompatibility, measurement capabilities) is established through adherence to recognized national and international standards (e.g., IEC, ISO, AIUM/NEMA standards) and technical specifications. It's not clinical "ground truth" derived from expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data in the context of diagnostic accuracy for AI.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This submission does not describe an AI system, therefore, there is no training set for an algorithm.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable. As there is no AI algorithm or training set, this information is not relevant to this submission.
Summary of the Study Proving Device Meets Acceptance Criteria:
The study proving the device meets the acceptance criteria is primarily a non-clinical technical verification and validation study. This involves:
- Acoustic Output Measurements: The system controlling acoustic output (same as predicate Pro Focus 2202) was verified to ensure that the device's acoustic output remains below regulatory limits (Ispta ≤ 720 mW/cm² and MI ≤ 1.9, TI ≤ 6.0). This is done through standard phantom and hydrophone measurements as per AIUM/NEMA UD-2 and UD-3.
- Safety Testing: The device was tested by a recognized Certified Body to confirm compliance with a comprehensive set of safety standards, including IEC 60601-1 (general safety), IEC 60601-1-2 (EMC), IEC 60601-2-37 (ultrasonic equipment specific safety), ISO 14971 (risk management), IEC 62304 (software lifecycle), and IEC 62359 (field characterization). These tests ensure thermal, mechanical, and electrical safety, as well as software integrity.
- Biocompatibility Testing: Patient contact materials were assessed for biocompatibility according to EN ISO 10993-1.
- Clinical Measurements and Calculations: The accuracy of clinical measurements and calculations is stated to be "described and accuracies are provided in the User Information," indicating that these were verified against established performance benchmarks, although specific metrics are not in the 510(k) summary itself.
- Technological Equivalence Comparison: The core of the 510(k) submission relies on demonstrating that the bk2300 system, including its new optional RF wireless function and the addition of Elastography (for some transducers compared to the oldest reference device, though it's present in the direct predicate), has "the same major technological characteristics" and intended use as the previously cleared predicate device (bk2300, K143298) or the reference device (ProFocus 2202, K132346). This comparison inherently "proves" that the device meets acceptance criteria by establishing its substantial equivalence to a device already deemed safe and effective by the FDA.
In essence, the "study" is a collection of engineering and regulatory compliance tests rather than a clinical trial assessing diagnostic performance.

Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding acceptance criteria and supporting studies for the BK Medical Ultrasound Scanner System bk2300:
Based on the provided FDA 510(k) summary (K152052), there is no specific table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance defined in terms of diagnostic accuracy metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy) for a particular clinical application (e.g., detecting a disease) as would be typical for an AI/CADe device.
Instead, this submission is for a general-purpose ultrasound scanner system. The "acceptance criteria" discussed are primarily related to engineering performance, safety, and substantial equivalence to a predicate device as required for a 510(k) clearance, rather than a clinical study evaluating diagnostic performance against specific benchmarks.
Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the document:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
As noted above, the document does not present "acceptance criteria" in the context of diagnostic performance metrics for a specific clinical task. The "performance" described is largely about meeting safety standards and functional capabilities.
