n=199 patients · 100 site(s)

endpoints: Diagnostic performance testing for distinguishing (on the case-level) between no ARIA-E and (mild, moderate or severe) ARIA-E, for distinguishing between no ARIA-H and (mild, moderate or severe) ARIA-H, and for distinguishing between severity levels for ARIA-E and ARIA-H, respectively.; Detection performance, measured as (finding-level) detection rate, false positive rate and misclassification rate (the latter only for ARIA-H) for individual findings (ARIA-E sites of involvement, ARIA-H new microhemorrhages, ARIA-H new areas of superficial siderosis).

Reader study (MRMC)

n=199 cases

endpoints: The co-primary study endpoints were the difference between assisted and unassisted detection of ARIA-E and ARIA-H (considering in turn either microhemorrhages, superficial siderosis, or both) independently, assessed with the area under the empirical receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), where the reader assessments for ARIA severity were compared against ground truth obtained via a consensus of 3 experts.; Secondary endpoints evaluated the difference in diagnostic performance of detecting mild ARIA in the subgroup of cases with no and mild ARIA, and in discriminating moderate-or-severe ARIA versus no-or-mild ARIA, for ARIA-E and ARIA-H (considering in turn either microhemorrhages, superficial siderosis, or both), independently.

standards: 21 CFR 892.2090, FDA guidance document "Clinical Performance Assessment: Considerations for Computer-Assisted Detection Devices Applied to Radiology Images and Radiology Device Data" (issued Sept 2022).
