Leksell Gamma Knife® Icon™ is a teletherapy device intended for stereotactic irradiation of head structures ranging from very small target sizes of a few millimeters to several centimeters, e.g. metastatic tumors, arteriovenous malformations, trigeminal neuralgia, medically refractory essential tremor, meningiomas, vestibular schwannomas, postsurgical pituitary adenomas and recurrent glioblastomas.

Leksell Gamma Knife® Icon™ is a radiosurgery system for use in the stereotactic irradiation of intra-cranial structures. Surgery is achieved by delivering a prescribed dose as one or more shots of ionizing radiation to the exact site of the target.

Based on preoperative radiological examinations, the Leksell Gamma Knife® Icon™ unit provides highly accurate external irradiation of intra-cranial structures using collimated beams of ionizing radiation.

Each unit contains 192 sealed sources of Cobalt 60.

The Leksell Gamma Knife Icon system consists of several parts, physically separated into a control room and a treatment room.

• The control room contains an operator console and an office cabinet. The . treatment session is controlled and monitored by the operator from the control room. The control room also contains a Leksell GammaPlan computer.
• . The treatment room contains the Leksell Gamma Knife unit. A Leksell Gamma Knife unit consists of the radiation unit, the patient positioning system, and a set of covers. A Leksell Gamma Knife Icon unit also includes a Cone Beam CT and an Intra Fraction Motion Management (IFMM) system. The treatment room also contains a camera, patient speakers, a microphone, a treatment room monitor, and a radiation warning lamp.

The system is electrically separated into an office side and a medical side.

• . The office side consists of the equipment in the control room, as well as the following equipment in the treatment room: a camera, patient speakers, a microphone, a treatment room monitor and the radiation warning lamp. The office side is powered and controlled by the office cabinet in the control room.
• . The medical side consists of the Leksell Gamma Knife unit in the treatment room, and is electrically isolated from the office side. The medical side is powered and controlled by a medical cabinet, placed inside the rear cover of the radiation unit.

This document is a 510(k) summary for the Leksell Gamma Knife® Icon™ device. It describes the device, its intended use, and compares it to predicate devices to establish substantial equivalence. However, the provided text does not contain the detailed acceptance criteria or a specific study proving the device meets those criteria, as typically found in clinical validation reports or performance testing summaries that would include such information.

The document states: "Testing in the form of module, integration and system level verification was performed to evaluate the performance and functionality of the new and existing features aqainst requirement specification. Regression and re-test of unchanged functionalities in the developed system was done to ensure that the new and updated functionalities did not introduce any undesirable effects."

It also mentions: "Results from verification and validation testing demonstrate that conformance to applicable technical requirement specification and user needs have been met and safety & effectiveness have been achieved."

Despite these general statements about testing, there is no specific table of acceptance criteria, reported device performance, sample sizes, data provenance, ground truth establishment, or details about expert involvement for a study. The document focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices (Leksell Gamma Knife® Perfexion™ and XVI R5.0) rather than presenting a standalone validation study with detailed performance metrics against predefined acceptance criteria for the new "Icon" features.

Therefore, most of the requested information cannot be extracted from this document.

Here's what can be gathered, and what is explicitly not available:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

• Not Available: The document does not provide a table with specific acceptance criteria (e.g., accuracy thresholds, precision values, sensitivity/specificity targets) or quantitatively reported device performance metrics against these criteria. It generally states that "conformance to applicable technical requirement specification and user needs have been met."

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

• Not Available: The document mentions "module, integration and system level verification" and "regression and re-test," but does not specify the sample size of any test set (e.g., number of patients, number of images, or number of test cases). It also does not provide details on data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective).

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)

• Not Available: The document does not describe the establishment of a "ground truth" using experts for a test set. It mentions that "Design and usability validation of the system has been performed by competent and professionally qualified personnel," but this is a general statement about internal validation rather than a detailed description of expert review for a test set.

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

• Not Available: No information on adjudication methods for a test set is provided.

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

• Not Available: This document does not describe an MRMC study or any study involving human readers with or without AI assistance, nor does it provide an effect size. The device described (Leksell Gamma Knife Icon) is a teletherapy system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool that typically undergoes MRMC studies comparing human reader performance.

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

• Not Available: The document does not detail a standalone algorithm performance study. The system includes a Cone Beam CT and an Intra Fraction Motion Management (IFMM) system, but the document does not describe their performance in isolation as an algorithm.

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

• Not Available: As no specific test set or ground truth establishment is described, this information is not available.

8. The sample size for the training set

• Not Available: This document makes no mention of a "training set," which implies that the device is not an AI/ML device that requires explicit training data in the same way as, for example, an image analysis algorithm. The system is a hardware device with associated software for planning and delivery.

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

• Not Available: Since no training set is mentioned, the method for establishing its ground truth is also not applicable or available from this document.

In summary: This 510(k) summary focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices for a medical hardware system (radiosurgery system) rather than providing detailed performance metrics from a clinical validation study typically seen for AI-driven diagnostic devices. The document highlights internal verification and validation against "requirement specification" and "user needs" but without quantitative details.
