    Intended Use

    The Disposable Semi Automatic Biopsy Instrument is intended for obtaining percutaneous or surgical histological core samples from soft tissues such as breast, kidney, liver, lung and various soft tissue masses. The device is not intended for use in bone.

    The extent of histological abnormality cannot be reliably determined from its mammographic appearance. Therefore the extent of removal of the imaged evidence of an abnormality does not predict the extent of removal of a histological abnormality (e.g. malignancy). When the sampled abnormality is not histologically benign, it is essential that the tissue margins be examined for completeness of removal using standard surgical procedures

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes the regulatory clearance (510(k)) of a medical device, the "Disposable Biopsy Refill Needle," and focuses on demonstrating its substantial equivalence to a predicate device. This type of submission relies heavily on non-clinical (bench) testing and comparison to an already cleared device, rather than extensive clinical studies for standalone or comparative effectiveness of an AI/human-in-the-loop system.

    Therefore, many of the requested elements for an AI-based device (like MRMC studies, ground truth establishment for large datasets, sample sizes for training/test sets for machine learning models, and expert qualifications for data labeling) are not applicable to this specific traditional medical device clearance.

    Here's an analysis based solely on the provided text:

    2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance

    The document primarily discusses bench testing of a physical device. It does not refer to a "test set" in the context of a machine learning model, nor does it detail specific sample sizes for each bench test performed (e.g., how many needles were tested for penetration force). The data provenance is from non-clinical bench testing conducted by Suzhou Leapmed Healthcare Corporation. No country of origin for data is specified, as it's not a data-driven AI study. All tests are inherently retrospective as they are performed before submission.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

    This question is not applicable to this type of device clearance. There is no "ground truth" in the sense of expert annotation of medical images or data for an AI algorithm. Ground truth for a physical device is established through engineering and quality control measurements against pre-defined specifications and international standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM).

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

    This is not applicable. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are used for reconciling disagreements among human readers/experts in AI model ground truth establishment or MRMC studies. For bench testing, results are quantitative or qualitative assessments against defined criteria, not subject to individual interpretation requiring adjudication.

    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

    There was no MRMC comparative effectiveness study done. The device is a physical biopsy needle, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or interventional system. The submission explicitly states: "No clinical study is included in this submission."

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

    This is not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm or AI system.

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

    For the physical device, the "ground truth" (or basis for acceptance) is derived from:

    • Engineering specifications and design requirements: For physical properties like dimensions, material strength, and performance characteristics (e.g., penetration force, stiffness).
    • International consensus standards: Such as ISO 9626 (needles), ISO 10993 (biocompatibility), ISO 11607-1 (packaging/sterilization), and ISO 7864 (bonding strength).
    • Comparative testing against a legally marketed predicate device: Demonstrating that the new device performs equivalently to a device already deemed safe and effective.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    This is not applicable. There is no training set as this is not an AI/machine learning device.

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

    This is not applicable. There is no training set.
