Intended Use

The Philips MicroDose L30 is indicated for generating mammographic images that can be used for screening and diagnosis of breast cancer. The Philips MicroDose L30 is intended to be used in the same clinical applications as traditional film/screen systems.

Device Story

Full-field digital mammography system; utilizes photon counting technology with crystalline silicon strip detectors; incorporates multi-slit scanning technique to reject scattered radiation. System components include x-ray tube (tungsten target, aluminum filtration), high voltage generator, compression paddles, and acquisition workstation. Operated by clinicians in clinical settings. Provides three exposure modes: manual, automatic (based on breast thickness), and SmartAEC (continuous adjustment based on transmission). Captures x-ray photons, converts to electrical signals, and generates digital images for PACS transfer. Enables dose-efficient imaging; supports screening and diagnostic workflows. Benefits include reduced radiation dose compared to traditional systems while maintaining image quality.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical evidence includes published studies on national mammography screening programs demonstrating consistent dose reduction compared to other FFDM and film-screen systems. Non-clinical bench testing (Sensitometric response, spatial resolution, noise analysis, DQE, dynamic range, AEC performance, phantom testing, radiation dose) confirmed performance equivalent or superior to predicate.

Technological Characteristics

Photon counting technology using crystalline silicon strip detectors; multi-slit scanning; tungsten target x-ray tube with aluminum filtration. System includes gantry and acquisition workstation. Operates via manual, automatic, or SmartAEC exposure modes. Testing performed per IEC standards.

Indications for Use

Indicated for screening and diagnosis of breast cancer in patients requiring mammographic imaging. Intended for use in clinical applications equivalent to traditional film/screen systems.

DEVICE IDENTIFICATION Device trade name Device common name Classification name Classification product code Device class Regulation code Philips MicroDose L30 Full-Field Digital Mammography X-ray System Full-Field Digital Mammography X-ray System MUE = 21 CFR 892.1715 ## C. DEVICE DESCRIPTION The Philips MicroDose L30 is a full-field digital mammography system comprised of an image acquisition system, a gantry and an acquisition workstation computer equipped with a keyboard, a keypad, a mouse, and a monitor. The image acquisition system includes a digital detector of photon counting technology, x-ray tube (with tungsten target and aluminum filtration), high voltage generator, compression paddle(s), and multi-slit collimator. The acquisition is the user interface for preparing and initiating image acquisition, image processing, and image transfer to the desired destination (e.g. PACS) for diagnosis and archiving. The Philips MicroDose L30 detector is based on photon counting technology and consists of a large number of crystalline silicon strip detectors. The technology enables high detection efficiency of photons and efficient rejection of electronic noise. The Philips MicroDose 130 uses a multi-slit scanning technique that prevents image degradation caused by scattered radiation by removing photons scattered in the breast and not directed towards the detector. These factors combine into a dose efficient system. The Philips MicroDose 130 provides three exposure modes; manual, automatic (parameters predefined based on compressed breast thickness), and SmartAEC continuously adjusts the exposure based on measured transmission from the leading detector edge. {1}------------------------------------------------ #### D. INDICATIONS FOR USE The Philips MicroDose L30 is indicated for generating mammographic images that can be used for screening and diagnosis of breast cancer. The Philips MicroDose L30 is intended to be used in the same clinical applications as traditional film/screen systems. #### E. PREDICATE DEVICE | | Predicate device | |-------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------| | Device Classification<br>Name | Full Field Digital, System, X-ray,<br>Mammographic | | 510(k) Number | K110025 | | Device Name | Sectra MicroDose Mammography | | Model | L30 | | Applicant | Sectra Imtec AB | | Product Code | MUE | | Advisory Committee | Radiology | ### E TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS As described in K110025, the Philips MicroDose L30 System employs photon counting technology; x-ray photons are captured in the detector and ultimately converted to an electrical signal, forming a digital image. All system components, hardware, and system features of the subject device are identical to the predicate MicroDose System. This 510(k) premarket notification is to obtain FDA clearance for the quantitative reduced dose claim for the MicroDose system based on the supporting clinical data. There is no change in the indications for use of the MicroDose system. The principle of operations of the MicroDose system is not affected, since there is no change to the device including image acquisition, X-ray generation, user interface, etc. As described in the original 510(k), K110025, performance data from non-clinical testing of the Sectra MicroDose Mammography L30 covering Sensitometric response, Spatial resolution, Noise analysis. Signal-to-noise-ratio transfer - DQE. Dynamic range, Automatic exposure control performance, Phantom testing, Patient radiation dose was compared with data from the predicate devices. This comparison showed that the Sectra MicroDose Mammography L30 device performed as well as or better than the predicate devices in all relevant areas. The testing was performed in accordance with generally accepted test methods, e.g. using IEC standards, published factors for dose calculations etc. In addition, clinical evidence including published studies on various national mammography screening programs demonstrated consistent levels of dose reduction with the use of the MicroDose system compared to other FFDM and film screen systems. #### G. CONCLUSION The Philips MicroDose L30 described in this submission is substantially equivalent to the predicate device in indication for use, principle of operation, technology and materials. Performance data demonstrate that the devices are substantially equivalent. {2}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/2/Picture/0 description: The image is a black and white logo for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
