Intended Use
Contour ProtégéAI is an accessory to MIM software. It includes processing components to allow the contouring of anatomical structures using machine-learning-based algorithms automatically. Appropriate image visualization software must be used to review and, if necessary, edit results automatically generated by Contour ProtégéAI. Contour ProtégéAI is not intended to detect or contour lesions.
Device Story
Contour ProtégéAI is an accessory to MIM software that automates anatomical structure contouring on CT and MR images. It utilizes neural network models to segment structures; outputs are intended for review and editing by clinicians using visualization software. The device operates on Windows, Mac, or Linux workstations, or via MIMcloud for remote data management. It supports radiation therapy workflows, including adaptive therapy and treatment planning. By automating manual contouring, it aims to improve efficiency in quantitative analysis and patient follow-up. It is not intended for lesion detection or contouring.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance evaluated on 739 independent images from 12 institutions. Models trained on 4,061 images from 31 sites. Primary endpoint was Dice coefficient comparison against MIM Maestro atlas-based segmentation. Results demonstrated equivalence (lower 95th percentile confidence bound of Contour ProtégéAI performance > 0.1 Dice lower than mean reference performance) across multiple anatomical structures (e.g., Bladder 0.94, Liver 0.93, Prostate 0.82).
Technological Characteristics
Software-based medical image processing system. Utilizes neural network models for automated segmentation. Operates on Windows, Mac, and Linux platforms. Supports cloud-based (MIMcloud) or local workstation deployment. Compatible with ACR/NEMA DICOM 3.0 standards. No hardware components.
Indications for Use
Indicated for trained medical professionals to assist in automated processing of digital medical images (CT and MR, ACR/NEMA DICOM 3.0 compliant). Supports creation of contours via machine-learning for quantitative analysis, adaptive therapy, transfer to radiation therapy planning systems, and archiving. Segments normal structures in CT anatomical locations and normal structures of prostate, seminal vesicles, and urethra in T2-weighted MR images.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.

Dear Lynn Hanigan:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

## Discussion
Changes within this submission include new CT 3.0.0 neural network models with additional contours. These changes differ when comparing to Contour ProtégéAl 510(k)210632. Non-inferiority testing was used to compare the proposed Contour ProtégéAl device to Atlases created from the MIM Maestro reference device.
## Testing and Performance Data
For the proposed Contour ProtégéAl device, the new 3.0.0 CT neural network models were trained on a pool of training data that did not include any patients from the same institution as the test subjects. This training data included 4.061 images gathered from 31 clinical sites, from Australia, France, Hong Kong, and the USA. Models were trained using images of adults at various ages. No ethnicities or genders were excluded from training, with the exception of the training pool for the prostate model, for which only subjects with male anatomy were used. The models were then evaluated on the test subjects from a pool of 739 independent images gathered from 12 institutions.
The ground-truth segmentations used for both training and validation were generated by a trained user (typically, a dosimetrist or radiologist) that are then reviewed and approved by a supervising physician (typically, a radiation oncologist or a radiologist) and sent back for re-segmentation and re-review as necessary. The Dice coefficient was then calculated for each structure, and aggregated over all patients. All patients were imaged on an indexed couch in treatment position ("simulation CT"). Series that were non-axial, had slices thinner than 0.5mm, or had non-Fan Beam or mV acquisitions were excluded.
With the MM Maestro atlas segmentation reference device, multiple Atlases were created over the test subjects. Each Atlas contained images of the same anatomical field of view from the same institution. Each structure appeared in one Atlas. For each patient in an Atlas, the Atlas was used to segment the structures in that patient. The test patient itself was excluded from this Atlas (leave-one-out analysis).
The mean and standard deviation Dice coefficients, along with the lower 95th percentile confidence bound, were calculated for both the proposed Contour ProtégéAl device and the MIM Maestro atlas seqmentation reference device for each structure of each neural network model. Contour ProtégéAl results were equivalent or had better performance than the MM Maestro atlas segmentation reference device. Equivalence is defined such that the lower 95th percentile confidence bound of the Contour ProtégéAl segmentation is greater than 0.1 Dice lower than the mean MIM atlas segmentation reference device performance.

Image /page/12/Picture/0 description: The image is a logo for MIM Software. The logo consists of a red square with rounded corners and a white circle in the lower left corner, partially covered by a gray square with rounded corners. To the right of the graphic is the text "MIM" in large, bold, black letters, with the word "SOFTWARE" in smaller black letters below.

Image /page/13/Picture/0 description: The image is a logo for MIM Software. The logo consists of two overlapping rounded squares, one gray and one red, with a white circle in the red square. To the right of the squares is the text "MIM" in a bold, sans-serif font, with the word "SOFTWARE" below it in a smaller font. The logo is simple and modern, and the colors are eye-catching.

Image /page/14/Picture/0 description: The image is a logo for MIM Software. The logo consists of two overlapping rounded squares, one gray and one red, with a white circle where they overlap. To the right of the squares is the text "MIM" in large, bold, black letters, with the word "SOFTWARE" in smaller black letters below it. The logo is simple and modern, with a clean design.
Mean ± Std Dice coefficient (lower 95th percentile confidence bound based on normal distribution in parentheses) * Equivalence demonstrated at p=0.05 significance level between Contour ProtégéAI and MIM Atlas † Comparisons for both atlas and Contour ProtégéAI calculated only on axial slices that contained the ground truth.
## Conclusion
Based on the Discussion and Testing and Performance Data above, the proposed device is determined to be as safe and effective as its predicate device, Contour ProtégéAl 510 K210632. In addition, the proposed device performs as well as the reference device, MIM 4.1 SEASTAR K071964.
