Intended Use

The Biopsy Digit-AM is intended to be used for mammographic procedures requiring stereotactic guidance, such as fine needle aspiration, needle biopsy, and guide wire placement.

Device Story

Device uses digital solid-state camera to capture two stereo X-ray images of breast tissue from different angles; binocular vision principle calculates 3D coordinates of lesions. Physician uses calculated coordinates to position needle holder for precise needle or guide-wire insertion. Used in clinical settings for minimally invasive tissue sampling; reduces tissue removal and scarring compared to surgical biopsy. Benefits patient by providing accurate, less invasive diagnostic localization for suspicious lesions identified via mammography.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on technological characteristics and functional comparison to the predicate device.

Technological Characteristics

Mammographic X-ray system utilizing digital solid-state camera for stereotactic imaging. Patient-contact components (paddles, supports, holders) utilize same materials as predicate. Operates via fixed-geometry binocular vision principle to calculate 3D lesion coordinates.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients undergoing mammographic procedures requiring stereotactic guidance, including fine needle aspiration, needle biopsy, and guide-wire placement.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A mammographic x-ray system is a device intended to be used to produce radiographs of the breast. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, component parts, and accessories.

Device Description ## 3.1. Function The BIOPSY DIGIT-AM device uses two stereo images taken by a digital solid state camera to determine the location of a lesion in three dimensions. Once the coordinates of the lesion are determined by the BIOPSY DIGIT-AM they are used to position a needle holder such that when the physician inserts the needle or guide-wire, the tip will be precisely positioned at the pre-determined coordinates. # 3.2. Scientific Concepts: The BIOPSY DIGIT-AM works on the same principle as human binocular vision. Two images of the same object are taken with the x-ray source in two different SEP 1 1 2006 {1}------------------------------------------------ # 510(k) Summary K62039 positions. Objects between the source and film plane appear at a different location as the source is moved from position A to B as shown in the figure below. Since the geometry of the system is fixed and knew, given the apparent position of the object in the two views, shown as C and D in the figure, the true position of the object can be calculated. Image /page/1/Figure/3 description: The image shows a diagram of an X-ray imaging system. The diagram includes an X-ray source labeled "X-ray Source" with points A and B indicating the source's extent. An object is positioned between the source and the image detector plane, and the image detector plane is labeled "Image detector plane" with points C and D indicating the plane's extent. # 3.3. Physical and Performance Characteristics: Mammography has been demonstrated to be the best imaging choice for screening of women for breast cancer by many studies and is currently recommended as a routine procedure for women over 50 years of age. Mammography, however, has been shown to have a high rate of false positive examinations. Stereotactic needle localization has been shown to be a minimally invasive procedure for obtaining the tissue sample needed determining the lesion type for a positive mammography examination. The procedure removes much less tissue and produces much less scar tissue than conventional surgical biopsy. ## Device Intended Use 4. - 4.1. The intended uses of the BIOPSY DIGIT-AM are identical to the intended uses of the BIOPSY DIGIT predicate device (Premarket notification K990192), ## Device Technological Characteristics 5. - 5.1. The characteristics of the BIOPSY DIGIT-AM system compare substantially with the BIOPSY DIGIT, in both materials used, technology applied, and functional methodology. Differences of note do not affect safety and effectiveness of the device, intended use, or application methods. The device operates in a manner substantially equivalent to other cleared devices in this category, and performs as well as the predicate BIOPSY DIGIT. {2}------------------------------------------------ K062039 - The components of the BIOPSY DIGIT-AM that come in direct contact with 5.2. the patient (paddles, supports, holders, digital camera) are of the same materials as the BIOPSY DIGIT predicate device (Premarket notification K990192). {3}------------------------------------------------ Food and Drug Administration 9200 Corporate Blvd. Rockville MD 20850 Giotto USA c/o Ms. Allison Scott Consultant The Anson Group, LLC 11460 N.
