Transmission and reception of ECG data and other clinical data to and from a central clinical information system is optional.
The MAC 7 Resting ECG Analysis System is intended to be used under the direct supervision of a licensed healthcare practitioner, by trained operators in a hospital, medical professional's facility or wherever ECG testing is performed.
The MAC 7 Resting ECG Analysis System is a mobile electrocardiograph designed to acquire, analyze, display, and record ECG signals from surface ECG electrodes.
The device can capture 3, 6, 12 or 15 lead electrocardiograms, provide interpretive analysis, and print reports.
The device can connect to a network, either through a wired LAN connection or via wireless WiFi access points. Once on the network, the device can optionally interface with cardiology information systems such as the GEHC MUSE® system to participate in a complete electrocardiology workflow.
The device provides state-of-the-art information technology security features and a contemporary user interface. Mobility is provided via an optional trolley.
The FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the MAC 7 Resting ECG Analysis System (K251670) does not contain a specific study proving the device meets acceptance criteria. Instead, it establishes substantial equivalence to predicate devices (K203786, K173830, K210560) based on similarities in intended use, indications for use, technology, and performance, along with compliance with voluntary standards and non-clinical testing.
Therefore, the following information is extracted from the provided text to fulfill your request:
1. Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document describes the device's characteristics and compares them to predicate devices, demonstrating substantial equivalence rather than explicit acceptance criteria with numerical performance targets. The "Discussion of Differences" column often highlights that a change does not significantly affect substantial equivalence, implying that the performance remains acceptable.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document states: "Summary of Clinical Tests: The subject of this premarket submission, MAC 7 Resting ECG Analysis System, did not require clinical studies to support substantial equivalence." This indicates that no specific test set data from clinical studies was used for performance evaluation in this submission. The "acceptance" is based on the device's technical characteristics aligning with or improving upon those of legally marketed predicate devices, supported by non-clinical testing and previous clearances for core components (like the 12SL™ analysis algorithm v24).
Therefore, details on sample size, country of origin, or retrospective/prospective nature of a clinical test set are not available in this document.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of those Experts
As no clinical studies were required for this submission to support substantial equivalence, there is no information provided regarding experts establishing ground truth for a test set.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Given that no clinical studies were performed, there is no adjudication method described for a test set.
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
The document does not mention any MRMC comparative effectiveness study. The focus is on establishing substantial equivalence to existing devices, not on demonstrating improved human reader performance with AI assistance.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was Done
The document states that the "Interpretive Statements are provided by 12SL (v24) ECG Analysis Program which was previously cleared under K221321." This implies that the performance of the 12SL™ algorithm itself (a standalone interpretation algorithm) would have been assessed during its prior clearance (K221321). However, the details of that standalone performance study are not included in this K251670 submission.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
Since no new clinical studies were performed for this submission, there is no mention of the type of ground truth used for a test set. For the 12SL™ analysis algorithm (v24) which provides interpretation statements, the ground truth would have been established during its prior clearance (K221321), but those details are not provided here.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
The document does not provide information on the sample size for any training set. As noted, the approval is based on substantial equivalence and non-clinical testing rather than specific training data for a new algorithm.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
The document does not provide information on how ground truth was established for any training set.

The user interface includes a computer keyboard, specialized controls, 14-inch LCD touch screen and color 23.8-inch LCD & HDU image display.
The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter and summary for the LOGIQ Totus Ultrasound System (K253370) describes the acceptance criteria and the study for the Ultrasound Guided Fat Fraction for adult imaging (UGFF) software feature. This feature is being added to the LOGIQ Totus and is similar to a previously cleared Siemens UDFF feature.
Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document describes the performance of the UGFF feature by comparing it to MRI Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRI-PDFF) and, in a separate confirmatory study, to a predicate UDFF device. The "acceptance criteria" are implied by the reported strong correlations and limits of agreement with these reference standards.
| Acceptance Criteria (Implied) | Reported Device Performance (UGFF vs. MRI-PDFF - Primary Study, Japan) | Reported Device Performance (UGFF vs. MRI-PDFF - Confirmatory Study, US/EU) | Reported Device Performance (UGFF vs. UDFF - Confirmatory Study, EU) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strong correlation with MRI-PDFF | Correlation coefficient: 0.87 | Correlation coefficient: 0.90 | N/A (compared to UDFF instead of MRI-PDFF) |
| Acceptable agreement (Bland-Altman) with MRI-PDFF | Offset: -0.32% LOA: -6.0% to 5.4% 91.6% patients within ±8.4% | Offset: -0.1% LOA: -3.6% to 3.4% 95.0% patients within ±4.6% | N/A (compared to UDFF instead of MRI-PDFF) |
| Strong correlation with predicate UDFF device | N/A | N/A | Correlation coefficient: 0.88 |
| Acceptable agreement (Bland-Altman) with predicate UDFF device | N/A | N/A | Offset: -1.2% LOA: -5.0% to 2.6% All patients within ±4.7% |
| No statistically significant effect of demographic confounders on measurements | Confirmed for BMI, SCD, and other demographic confounders on AC, BSC, and NSR. | Not explicitly stated for confirmatory studies but implied. | Not explicitly stated for confirmatory studies but implied. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
-
Primary Study (UGFF vs. MRI-PDFF):
- Sample Size: 582 participants
- Data Provenance: External clinical study in Japan (Population: Asian). The study was retrospective or prospective is not specified, but the phrase "obtained from the liver of five hundred and eighty-two (582) participants" suggests a data collection event rather than a purely retrospective analysis of existing medical records. The study is described as an "external clinical study," further suggesting a dedicated data collection.
-
First Confirmatory Study (UGFF vs. MRI-PDFF):
- Sample Size: 15 US patients and 5 EU patients (total 20 patients)
- Data Provenance: US and EU patients. Demographic information on the 5 EU patients was unavailable. This was conducted as a "confirmatory study."
-
Second Confirmatory Study (UGFF vs. UDFF):
- Sample Size: 24 EU patients
- Data Provenance: EU patients. This was conducted as a "confirmatory study."
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications
The document does not specify the number of experts or their qualifications for establishing the ground truth.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
The document does not specify an adjudication method. For the UGFF feature, the "ground truth" was objective measurements (MRI-PDFF or a predicate device's UDFF), which typically do not require adjudication by human experts in the same way an image diagnosis might.
5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done for the UGFF feature as described. The studies focused on comparing the device's output (UGFF index) to an objective reference standard (MRI-PDFF or another device's UDFF), not on how human readers' performance improved with or without AI assistance.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
Yes, a standalone performance evaluation was done. The UGFF index, based on acoustic property measurements, is compared directly to MRI-PDFF and UDFF. This indicates the algorithm's performance independent of human interpretation or intervention in the final measurement calculation. While a technologist operates the ultrasound system, the UGFF index calculation itself is an algorithmic output.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The type of ground truth used is MRI Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRI-PDFF) measurements, which are quantitative and objective reference standards for liver fat quantification. Additionally, for one confirmatory study, the ground truth was the Ultrasound-Derived Fat Fraction (UDFF) from a Siemens Acuson S3000/S2000, functioning as a predicate device's output. These are akin to "outcomes data" or "established reference standard measurements."
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
The document states: "During the migration of the AI software feature from LOGIQ E10s (K231989), the algorithm was not retrained and there were no changes to the algorithmic flow or the AI components performing the inferencing." This implies the training set was associated with the original clearance of the Auto Renal Measure Assistant on the LOGIQ E10s (K231989) but the sample size for the training set is not provided in this document.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Similarly, since the algorithm was not retrained and the document pertains to the migration of an existing AI feature, the method for establishing the ground truth for the original training set is not provided in this document.

- Number of Experts: Not specified ("Readers to ground truth...").
- Qualifications: Not specified.
2.4. Adjudication Method (Test Set): An "arbitrator to select most accurate measurement among all readers" was used. This suggests a form of adjudication, possibly 2+1 or similar, where the arbitrator acts as the tie-breaker/final decision-maker.
2.5. MRMC Comparative Effectiveness Study: Yes, this study directly compares human performance with and without AI assistance by measuring keystrokes and accuracy.

4.2. Sample Size and Data Provenance (Test Set): This section describes the clinical studies used for validation of the UGFF index, rather than a traditional AI test set.
-
Primary Study (Development/Validation of UGFF Index):
- Subjects: 582 participants
- Country: Japan
- Retrospective/Prospective: "external clinical study in Japan" implies prospective data collection, with subsequent analysis.
-
Second Confirmatory Study:
- Subjects: 15 US patients, 5 EU patients (Total 20)

4.3. Number and Qualifications of Experts for Ground Truth (Test Set):
- UGFF Study: The ground truth is established by a reference imaging modality (MRI-PDFF) and a comparison device (UDFF), not directly by human experts interpreting ultrasound images for the purpose of the study. The study involves acoustic property measurements.
4.4. Adjudication Method (Test Set): Not applicable, as the ground truth is based on MRI-PDFF and UDFF, not human interpretation requiring adjudication.
4.5. MRMC Comparative Effectiveness Study: No, this is a clinical validation against a reference standard and a comparative study against a predicate device.
4.6. Standalone Performance: Yes, the UGFF index is an algorithm-generated value based on acoustic properties, and its performance is evaluated in a standalone manner against established reference methods (MRI-PDFF) and a legally marketed predicate (UDFF).
4.7. Type of Ground Truth Used: Quantitative measurements from a reference imaging modality (MRI Proton Density Fat Fraction - MRI-PDFF %) and a comparative device (Ultrasound-Derived Fat Fraction (UDFF, Siemens)).

AIR Recon DL is a deep learning based reconstruction technique that is available for use on GE HealthCare 1.5T, 3.0T, and 7.0T MR systems. AIR Recon DL reduces noise and ringing (truncation artifacts) in MR images, which can be used to reduce scan time and improve image quality. AIR Recon DL is intended for use with all anatomies, and for patients of all ages. Depending on the anatomy of interest being imaged, contrast agents may be used.
AIR Recon DL is a software feature intended for use with GE HealthCare MR systems. It is a deep learning-based reconstruction technique that removes noise and ringing (truncation) artifacts from MR images. AIR Recon DL is an optional feature that is integrated into the MR system software and activated through purchasable software option keys. AIR Recon DL has been previously cleared for use with 2D Cartesian, 3D Cartesian, and PROPELLER imaging sequences.
The proposed device is a modified version of AIR Recon DL that includes a new deep-learning phase correction algorithm for applications that create multiple intermediate images and combine them, such as Diffusion Weighted Imaging where multiple NEX images are collected and combined. This enhancement is an optional feature that is integrated into the MR system software and activated through an additional purchasable software option key (separate from the software option keys of the predicate device).
This document describes the acceptance criteria and the studies conducted to prove the performance of the AIR Recon DL device, as presented in the FDA 510(k) clearance letter.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Nonclinical Testing:
- Phantom testing was conducted for the DLPC and PC-ARDL models. No specific sample size (number of phantom scans) is provided, but it implies a sufficient number for evaluation.
- In-Vivo Performance Testing:
- ADC Accuracy: Diffusion-weighted brain images were acquired at 1.5T with b-values = 50, 400, 800, 1200 s/mm². The number of subjects is not explicitly stated, but it's referred to as "diffusion images" and "diffusion-weighted brain images."
- Low-Contrast Detectability: Raw data from 4 diffusion-weighted brain scans were used.
- Quantitative Post Processing (Repeatability Study):
- 6 volunteers were recruited. 2 volunteers scanned on a 1.5T scanner, 4 on a 3T scanner.
- Scanned anatomical regions included brain, spine, abdomen, pelvis, and breast.
- Each sequence was repeated 4 times.
- Data Provenance: The document states "in-vivo data" and "volunteer scanning was performed simulating routine clinical workflows." This suggests prospective scanning of human subjects, likely in a controlled environment. The country of origin is not specified, but given the FDA submission, it's likely U.S. or international data meeting U.S. standards. The statement "previously acquired de-identified cases" for the Clinical Image Quality Study refers to retrospective data for that specific study, but the volunteer scanning for repeatability appears prospective.
- Clinical Image Quality Study:
- 34 datasets of previously acquired de-identified cases.
- Data Provenance: "previously acquired de-identified cases" indicates retrospective data. The country of origin is not specified.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications
- Nonclinical Testing: Ground truth established through phantom measurements and expected physical properties (e.g., signal bias, noise floor). No human experts involved in establishing ground truth here.
- In-Vivo Performance Testing:
- ADC Accuracy: "Average ADC values were measured from regions of interest in the lateral ventricles." This implies expert selection of ROIs, but the number of experts is not specified. The ground truth for ADC is the expected isotropic Gaussian diffusion in these regions.
- Low-Contrast Detectability: "The contrast ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio for each of the inserts were measured." This is a quantitative measure, not explicitly relying on expert consensus for ground truth on detectability, but rather on the known properties of the inserted synthetic objects.
- Quantitative Post Processing:
- ADC Repeatability: Ground truth for repeatability is based on quantitative measurements and statistical analysis (coefficient of variability). ROI placement would typically be done by an expert, but the number is not specified.
- Phase Correction Effectiveness: Ground truth is based on the theoretical expectation of signal distribution in real/imaginary channels after ideal phase correction.
- Clinical Image Quality Study:
- One (1) U.S. Board Certified Radiologist was used.
- Qualifications: "U.S. Board Certified Radiologist." No explicit number of years of experience is stated, but Board Certification indicates a high level of expertise.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Nonclinical/Phantom Testing: No explicit adjudication method described beyond passing defined acceptance criteria for quantitative metrics.
- In-Vivo Performance Testing: Quantitative measurements (ADC values, contrast ratios, CNR) were used. Paired t-tests were conducted, which is a statistical comparison method, not an adjudication process as typically defined for expert readings.
- Quantitative Post Processing: Quantitative measurements and statistical analysis (coefficient of variability, comparison of real/imaginary channels).
- Clinical Image Quality Study: A single U.S. Board Certified Radiologist made the assessment. There is no stated adjudication method described, implying a single-reader assessment for clinical image quality.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
- An MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not explicitly described as a formal study design in the provided text.
- The "Clinical Image Quality Study" involved only one radiologist, so it does not qualify as an MRMC study.
- There is no reported effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs. without AI assistance. The study rather focused on the AI-reconstructed images' standalone diagnostic quality.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study
- Yes, performance was evaluated in a standalone manner.
- Nonclinical Testing: Phantom studies directly evaluate the algorithm's output against known physical properties and defined metrics.
- In-Vivo Performance Testing: ADC accuracy and low-contrast detectability were measured directly from the reconstructed images, which is a standalone evaluation of the algorithm's quantitative output.
- Quantitative Post Processing: Repeatability and effectiveness of phase correction in real/imaginary channels are algorithm-centric evaluations.
- Even the clinical image quality study, while involving a human reader, assessed the standalone output of the algorithm (AIR Recon DL with Phase Correction) for diagnostic quality.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
- Expert Consensus: Not explicitly stated as the primary ground truth for quantitative metrics, but one radiologist's assessment served as the primary clinical ground truth.
- Pathology: Not used as ground truth in the provided study descriptions. While some datasets "included pathological features such as prostate cancer... hepatocellular carcinoma," the assessment by the radiologist was on "diagnostic quality" of the images, not a comparison against pathology reports for definitive disease identification.
- Outcomes Data: Not used as ground truth.
- Other:
- Physical Properties/Known Standards: For phantom testing (e.g., signal bias, noise floor, SNR, sharpness), and for theoretical expectations of ADC values in specific regions (lateral ventricles).
- Known Synthetic Inserts: For low-contrast detectability.
- Theoretical Expectations: For phase correction effectiveness (signal in real, noise in imaginary).
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
- The document does not provide any specific sample size for the training set used for the deep learning models (DLPC and PC-ARDL). It only states that the models are "deep learning-based."
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
- The document does not provide any information on how the ground truth for the training set was established. It only describes the testing of the final, trained models.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
| Functionality | Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance (CL2 probe group) |
|---|---|---|
| SonoLystIR | 0.80 | 0.93 |
| SonoLystX | 0.80 | 0.84 |
| SonoLystLive | 0.70 | 0.84 |
Additional Performance Data (Mean values across transabdominal and transvaginal scans):
| Functionality | Mean (%) |
|---|---|
| SonoLyst IR | 94.1 |
| SonoLyst X | 92.4 |
| SonoLyst Live | 82.5 |
2. Sample Sizes Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
-
SonoLyst 1st Trim IR: 7970 images
-
SonoLyst 1st Trim X: 4931 images
-
SonoLyst 1st Trim Live: 9111 images
-
SonoBiometry CRL: 243 images
-
Specific to Probegroup CL2 (which includes C1-6-D Probe): Data was collected from 396 patients.
-
Data Provenance: Data was collected from multiple geographical sites including the UK, Austria, India, and USA. The data was collected using different systems (GE Voluson V730, P8, S6/S8, E6, E8, E10, Expert 22, Philips Epiq 7G).
-
Retrospective/Prospective: The document does not explicitly state whether the test data was retrospective or prospective. However, the mention of "data acquired with transabdominal vs transvaginal probes" and "patients within the dataset includes pregnancies between 11 and 14 weeks of gestation, with no known fetal abnormalities at the time of imaging" suggests that the images were pre-existing or collected specifically for this evaluation, implying a retrospective or a pre-defined prospective collection for the study.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications
- Initial Curation: A single sonographer curated (sorted and graded) the images initially.
- Review Panel for Graded Images: Where the system's grading differed from the initial ground truth, the images were reviewed by a 5-sonographer review panel to determine the grading accuracy of the system.
- Qualifications: The document identifies them as "sonographers." Specific years of experience or expertise in fetal ultrasound are not provided, other than their role in image curation and review.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Initial Sorting and Grading: Images were initially curated (sorted and graded) by a single sonographer.
- Reclassification during Sorting: The SonoLyst IR/X First Trimester process resulted in some images being reclassified during sorting based on the majority view of the panel (after the step where the system had sorted them).
- Grading Accuracy Review: For graded images where the initial single sonographer's ground truth differed from the system, a 5-sonographer review panel was used to determine the accuracy. This suggests an adjudication process where the panel formed a consensus or majority opinion to establish the final ground truth when discrepancies arose. The exact method (e.g., simple majority, weighted vote) is not specified beyond "majority view of the panel."
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and Effect Size
- The document does not indicate that a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done to evaluate how much human readers improve with AI vs. without AI assistance. The testing focused on the standalone performance of the AI algorithm against a ground truth established by sonographers.
- The verification of SonoLystLive 1st Trim Trimester features was based on the "average agreement between a sonographer panel and the output of the algorithm regarding Traffic light quality," which involves human readers assessing traffic light quality in relation to the algorithm's output, but it's not a study designed to measure human improvement with AI assistance.
6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done
- Yes, a standalone performance evaluation was conducted. The performance metrics (SonoLystIR, SonoLystX, SonoLystLive, SonoBiometry CRL success rate) are reported as the accuracy of the algorithm comparing its output directly against the established ground truth. This is a measure of the algorithm's ability to perform its specified functions independently.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- The ground truth was established through expert consensus/review by sonographers.
- Initial curation by a single sonographer.
- Review and reclassification during sorting based on the "majority view of the panel."
- A 5-sonographer review panel was used to determine grading accuracy for discrepancies.
- The ground truth also adhered to standardized imaging protocols based on internationally recognized guidelines (AIUM Practice Parameter, AIUM Detailed Protocol, ISUOG Practice Guidelines, ISUOG Detailed Protocol, and the study by Yimei Liao et al.) which informed the quality and consistency of the expert review.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- 122,711 labelled source images from 35,861 patients were used for training.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
- The document states that "Data used for both training and validation has been collected across multiple geographical sites using different systems to represent the variations in target population."
- While the specific method for establishing ground truth for the training set is not explicitly detailed in the same way as the test set, it can be inferred that similar expert labeling and curation processes would have been applied given the emphasis on "labelled source images." The document focuses on the test set truthing process as part of verification, implying that the training data would have undergone a robust labeling process to ensure quality for machine learning.

- Data Provenance (Confirmatory Study 2): Retrospective, EU.
3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth
- Auto Abdominal Color Assistant 2.0: Not explicitly stated, but implies multiple "readers" to ground truth anatomical visibility. No specific qualifications are mentioned beyond "readers."
- Auto Aorta Measure Assistant: Not explicitly stated, but implies multiple "readers" for measurements and an "arbitrator" to select the most accurate measurement. No specific qualifications are mentioned beyond "readers" and "arbitrator."
- Auto Common Bile Duct (CBD) Measure Assistant: Not explicitly stated, but implies multiple "readers" for measurements and an "arbitrator" to select the most accurate measurement. No specific qualifications are mentioned beyond "readers" and "arbitrator."
- Ultrasound Guided Fat Fraction (UGFF): Ground truth for the primary study was MRI Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRI-PDFF %). No human experts were involved in establishing the ground truth for UGFF, as it relies on MRI-PDFF as the reference. The correlation between UGFF and UDFF also used UDFF as a reference, not human experts.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Auto Abdominal Color Assistant 2.0: Not explicitly mentioned, however, the process described as "Readers to ground truth the 'anatomy' visible in static B-Mode image. (Before running AI)" and then comparing to AI predictions does not suggest an adjudication process for the ground truth generation itself beyond initial reader input. Confusion matrices were generated later.
- Auto Aorta Measure Assistant: An "Arbitrator" was used to "select most accurate measurement among all readers" for the initial ground truth, which was then compared to AI baseline. This implies a 1 (arbitrator) + N (readers) adjudication method for measurement accuracy. For keystroke comparison, readers measured with and without AI.
- Auto Common Bile Duct (CBD) Measure Assistant: An "Arbitrator" was used to "select most accurate measurement among all readers" for the initial ground truth, which was then compared to AI baseline. This implies a 1 (arbitrator) + N (readers) adjudication method for measurement accuracy. For keystroke comparison, readers measured with and without AI.
- Ultrasound Guided Fat Fraction (UGFF): Ground truth was established by MRI-PDFF or comparison to UDFF. No human adjudication method was described for these.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
- Auto Aorta Measure Assistant: Yes, a comparative study was performed by comparing keystroke counts with and without AI assistance for human readers.
- Effect Size:
- Long View Aorta AP Measurement: Average reduction from $4.132 \pm 0.291$ keystrokes (without AI) to $1.236 \pm 0.340$ keystrokes (with AI).
- Short View Aorta AP and Trans Measurement: Average reduction from $7.05 \pm 0.158$ keystrokes (without AI) to $2.307 \pm 1.0678$ keystrokes (with AI).
- Effect Size:
- Auto Common Bile Duct (CBD) Measure Assistant: Yes, a comparative study was performed by comparing keystroke counts with and without AI assistance for human readers.
- Effect Size: Average reduction of $1.62 \pm 0.375$ keystrokes (mean and standard deviation) from manual to AI-assisted measurements.
- Other features (Auto Abdominal Color Assistant 2.0, UGFF): The documentation does not describe a MRMC study for improved human reader performance with AI assistance for these features.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study
- Auto Abdominal Color Assistant 2.0: Yes, the model's accuracy (detection accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, DICE score) was evaluated in a standalone manner against the human-annotated ground truth.
- Ultrasound Guided Fat Fraction (UGFF): Yes, the correlation and agreement of the UGFF algorithm's values were tested directly against an established reference standard (MRI-PDFF) and another device's derived fat fraction (UDFF).
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
- Auto Abdominal Color Assistant 2.0: Expert consensus/annotations on B-Mode images, followed by comparison to AI predictions.
- Auto Aorta Measure Assistant: Expert consensus on measurements (human readers with arbitrator selection) and keystroke counts from these manual measurements and AI-assisted measurements.
- Auto Common Bile Duct (CBD) Measure Assistant: Expert consensus on measurements (human readers with arbitrator selection) and keystroke counts from these manual measurements and AI-assisted measurements.
- Ultrasound Guided Fat Fraction (UGFF): Established clinical reference standard: MRI Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRI-PDFF %). For one confirmatory study, another cleared device's derived fat fraction (UDFF) was used as a comparative reference.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
- The document states that "The exams used for test/training validation purpose are separated from the ones used during training process" but does not provide the sample size for the training set itself for any of the AI features.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
- The document implies that the ground truth for training data would have been established similarly to the test data ground truth (e.g., expert annotation for Auto Abdominal Color Assistant, expert measurements for Auto Aorta/CBD Measure Assistants). However, the specific methodology for the training set's ground truth establishment (e.g., number of experts, adjudication, qualifications) is not detailed in the provided text. It only explicitly states that "Before the process of data annotation, all information displayed on the device is removed and performed on information extracted purely from Ultrasound B-mode images" for annotation. Independence of test and training data by exam site origin or overall separation is mentioned, but not the process for creating the training set ground truth.
