Intended Use

DAFS is a software-only medical device intended for use by trained healthcare professionals for the automated segmentation, visualization, and quantitative analysis of anatomical structures in computed tomography (CT) images. The software processes DICOM Part 10 formatted CT image data to identify, segment anatomical structures, including body composition tissues and internal organs and annotate DICOM slices by anatomical landmarks. The device provides quantitative measurements of these structures, including area, volume, and intensity values, and displays 2D and 3D visual representations. The software provides tools for visualization, review, and manual editing of segmentation and slice annotation results and associated measurements. DAFS is intended for use as an adjunct to clinical assessment. The device does not provide diagnostic interpretation, and all results must be reviewed and confirmed by a qualified healthcare professional.

The independent validation dataset consisted of CT scans from 124 adult subjects not used during algorithm training. Subject-level separation between training and testing datasets was ensured by verifying unique PatientID, SeriesInstanceUID and AcquisitionNumber DICOM identifiers. The internal testing consisted of 60 females (48.4%) and 64 males (51.6%). The age distribution included 4.8% of subjects under 40 years, 37.1% between 40-59 years, 53.2% between 60-79 years, and 4.8% aged 80 years or older. The majority of cases (90.3%) were between 40 and 79 years of age, representing the primary adult CT imaging population. These datasets originated primarily from U.S.-based clinical research studies supported by the National Cancer Institute. Race and/or ethnicity metadata were available for 78 subjects (62.9%) of the testing dataset, while the remaining 46 scans did not include race or ethnicity information in the source datasets. Among the cases with available metadata, the reported categories included White (n=54), Hispanic or Latino (n=9), Black (n=6), Not Hispanic or Latino (n=6), and Asian (n=3). Race and ethnicity metadata were reported according to the conventions used by the original source datasets. The test dataset included CT scans acquired on systems from Siemens, GE Medical Systems, Philips, Toshiba and United Imaging Healthcare consisting of more than ten unique scanner models. Slice thickness varied as follows: $\leq 1.0\mathrm{mm}$ (15.3%), 1.25-2.5 mm (25.8%) and 2.5 mm (58.9%). Both contrast enhanced and non-contrast CT were included. Disease information was available for 121 of 124 CT scans (97.6%) in the independent testing dataset. Cases included a range of malignant and non-malignant conditions. The largest disease categories were lung cancer (n=34), genitourinary cancers including kidney, prostate, and bladder (n=23), gastrointestinal/colorectal cancers (n=18), other primary cancers (n=17), and gynecological cancers (n=14). A total of 15 scans represented non-malignant or indeterminate findings, including healthy cases and benign or indeterminate nodules or polyps. Three scans had unavailable disease metadata. Reference standard annotations were generated through manual segmentation and vertebral landmark annotation performed by trained anatomy specialists using standardized anatomical protocols. All annotations underwent a structured quality assurance process that included co-rater review and approval by experienced anatomy team leads, followed by final review by a board-certified Nuclear Medicine physician to ensure anatomical accuracy and consistency. These expert-reviewed annotations served as the ground truth reference standard for evaluation of the automated vertebral annotation and tissue segmentation algorithms. The performance of the DAFS algorithms was evaluated by comparing automated outputs against expert-generated reference standard annotations. Vertebral annotation accuracy was assessed by measuring slice-level positional differences between automated landmarks and the reference standard. Results demonstrated a median slice error of 0 slices across vertebral levels, with the majority of annotations within one slice of the reference standard. Segmentation performance was evaluated using the Dice Similarity Coefficient (DSC) across the anatomical structures supported by the device. Overall, the algorithms demonstrated high agreement with the reference standard, with most major anatomical structures achieving mean Dice scores greater than 0.90. The DAFS algorithms were developed using a collection of multi-institutional CT imaging datasets representing a range of anatomical presentations, imaging protocols, scanner manufacturers, and fields of view. The training data included CT studies acquired for a variety of clinical indications and imaging conditions to support algorithm generalizability. DAFS is designed as a human-in-the-loop system. All generated segmentations and vertebral annotations are required to be reviewed and, if necessary, adjusted by a qualified healthcare professional prior to clinical use.
