It utilizes a deep learning algorithm to accurately estimate the renal parenchymal volume of the kidney. The output of the algorithm is a NumPy array that is used to generate a NIfTI file format, which is then used to calculate the kidney volumes. These values are then compiled into a PDF report that can be easily downloaded from our AIRA tool. The report provides the user with detailed information about their kidney size. Specifically, the report includes the volume of the left and right kidneys. In addition, volume masks are produced, that can be superimposed on the original DICOM gray scale image. An editor tool is also available, which can be used to modify the outputs where necessary and recalculate the volumes (this is optional). This information is compared to baseline measurements to detect any changes that may indicate early kidney swelling or volume loss. The tool is intended for use by medical professionals, such as radiologists, nephrologists, and urologists, who are trained in the interpretation of medical imaging data. ### Indications for Use Non-invasive processing of CT kidney images using automatic image segmentation and measurement of anatomical structures utilizing artificial intelligence/machine-learning algorithms. The system automatically calculates the renal parenchymal volume. {6} AIRA is intended for adult patients who require volumetric measurement of the kidneys for further clinical assessment. ## Summary of Indications for Use AIRA and the predicate device have the same indication for use. Both devices are intended for non-invasive processing of images using automatic image segmentation and measurement of anatomical structures utilizing artificial intelligence/machine-learning algorithms. AIRA is intended for adult patients who require volumetric measurement of the kidneys for further clinical assessment. ## Summary of Technological Characteristic AIRA and the predicate device have similar technological characteristics. Both utilize artificial intelligence/machine-learning algorithms to perform automatic image segmentation and measurement of anatomical structures. AIRA is different from the predicate in that it uses images from CT and MRI while the subject device utilizes CT images only. ## General Safety and Effectiveness Concerns The device labeling contains instructions for use and any necessary cautions and warnings to provide for safe and effective use of this device. Risk management is ensured via a risk analysis which is used to identify and mitigate potential hazards. Any potential hazards are controlled via software development, verification and validation testing. In addition, general controls of the FD&C Act, and special controls established for medical image management and processing system per 21 CFR 892.2050 are in place to further mitigate any safety and or effectiveness risks. ## Assessment of Non-Clinical Performance Data The AIRA Standalone Study was a retrospective study conducted to assess the performance of AIRA. A total of 119 computed tomography (CT) cases were retrospectively collected for use in this standalone study under the approved Aramis Protocol 66017 Data Collection Protocol. The cases were collected from 3 US sites at distinct geographic locations. The study analyses included 113 cases. The sample was enriched to have at least 25% of cases with atrophied kidneys. Ground truth volume and segmentation were established by 2 radiologists; no adjudication was required. AIRA: Version 1.0 was used to process all cases and provide segmentation and RPV for each kidney. Accuracy of AIRA was measured by the Dice {7} similarity coefficient (DSC) and the Hausdorff distance between AIRA and ground truth segmentation. The mean Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) between the AIRA mask and the larger Ground Truther mask was 0.9092 for the Right kidney (95% CI: 0.9032, 0.9148) and 0.9114 for the Left kidney (95% CI: 0.9035, 0.9179). The mean Hausdorff Distance (HD) between the AIRA mask and the larger Ground Truther mask was 9.9743 mm for the Right kidney (95% CI: 8.4073, 12.5967) and 9.9395 mm for the Left kidney (95% CI: 7.8926, 13.6073). Mean 95th Percentile HDs (HD95s) were 3.7734 mm (95% CI: 3.5544, 4.0104) and 3.9151 mm (95% CI: 3.4522, 4.6661) for the Right and Left kidneys, respectively. ### **Conclusion:** Based upon the information presented in this submission, it is concluded that AIRA is substantially equivalent to the named predicate device.
