The UP600 diagnostic doppler ultrasound system is a compact and portable diagnostic ultrasound device, have integrated preprogrammed color ultrasound imaging system, capable of producing a resolution intended for clinical diagnostic imaging applications. The user interface includes a specialized control kevboard and color 15-inch LCD display. The digital architecture with progressive dynamic receive focusing allows the system to maximize the utility of all imaging transducers to enhance the diagnostic utility provided by the system. The exam dependent default setting allows the user to have minimum adjustment for imaging the in depth soft-menu control allows the advanced user to set the system for different situations. The architecture allows system integration to a variety of upgrade-able options and features.

The provided text is a 510(k) Premarket Notification Summary for the BenQ Medical Technology UP600 Diagnostic Doppler Ultrasound System. This document does not describe specific acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets those criteria in the typical format expected for AI/ML device evaluations. Instead, it focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, which is a different regulatory pathway.

Therefore, many of the requested elements (sample sizes for test/training sets, data provenance, number/qualifications of experts, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and ground truth types) are not applicable or extractable from this specific document, as it predates the widespread regulatory expectations for AI/ML device evaluations.

Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted, along with explanations for what cannot:

1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not specify quantitative acceptance criteria (e.g., specific sensitivity, specificity, or image quality metrics) or report performance against such criteria. Instead, it relies on demonstrating comparable technological characteristics and intended uses to legally marketed predicate devices. The "performance" aspect is implicitly shown by comparison to these predicate devices rather than through specific quantitative metrics presented for the UP600 itself.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

This information is not provided in the document. As a premarket notification for a general ultrasound system based on substantial equivalence, the submission primarily focuses on technical specifications, safety standards, and comparison to existing devices rather than clinical study data with specific test sets.

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)

This information is not provided in the document. No specific clinical test set requiring expert ground truth is described.

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

This information is not provided in the document. No specific clinical test set requiring adjudication is described.

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

A Multi-Reader, Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not performed, nor is it applicable for this type of device submission. The UP600 is a diagnostic ultrasound system, a hardware device, and does not incorporate AI/ML functionality that would assist human readers in image interpretation. Therefore, there is no "AI vs without AI assistance" comparison.

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

A standalone performance evaluation of an algorithm was not performed, nor is it applicable. The UP600 is a diagnostic ultrasound system, not an algorithm, and is intended for use by a qualified physician (human-in-the-loop).

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

This information is not provided in the document. No specific ground truth for performance evaluation is mentioned, as the focus is on substantial equivalence.

8. The sample size for the training set

This information is not provided in the document. This device is a hardware system, not an AI/ML algorithm that would typically have a training set.

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

This information is not provided in the document. Not applicable for this hardware device.

Summary of the Study (or lack thereof, in the context of AI/ML evaluation):

The BenQ Medical Technology UP600 Diagnostic Doppler Ultrasound System's acceptance was based on a demonstration of substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices (BenQ Medical Technology UP600 K121983, GE Healthcare Voluson i K053435, and CGMC OPUS 5000 K102989). This is the primary "study" or justification presented in the 510(k) summary.

The document highlights the following to support substantial equivalence:

• Comparable Indications for Use: The UP600 and its transducers are intended for the same clinical applications as the predicate devices.
• Similar Technological Characteristics: The UP600 shares core operational principles (applying high voltage burst to piezoelectric material, detecting reflected echoes, constructing 2D B-mode, Doppler color, and Doppler spectrum images) and many features (display modes, measurements, transducer types) with the predicate devices. Some features, like the 128-channel digital beam former, are even identical to one predicate (GE Voluson I) and an improvement over another (CGMC OPUS 5000).
• Compliance with Safety Standards: The device meets recognized national and international safety standards (NEMA UD 2, NEMA UD 3, IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, IEC 60601-2-37, IEC 10993-1).
• Equivalent Acoustic Output: The acoustic output levels are identical to the predicate devices and stated to be below applicable FDA limits ("Track 3; MI, TIS, TIC, TIB. Derated Ispta: 720mW/cm2 maximum," etc.).
• Biocompatible Patient Contact Materials: Materials used for patient contact are compliant with ISO10993-5 (a standard for biological evaluation of medical devices).

The 510(k) summary concludes that "The UP600 is substantially equivalent in safety and effectiveness to the predicate systems." This implies that by meeting the technical and safety specifications and having comparable intended uses to already cleared devices, it is deemed safe and effective without the need for extensive clinical performance studies that would typically involve test sets, expert ground truth, or AI-specific evaluations.
