DeepCatch

MEDICALIP Co., Ltd

DeepCatch analyzes whole-body CT images to segment skin, bone, muscle, visceral fat, subcutaneous fat, internal organs, and central nervous system structures, then calculates volumes, proportions, and three-dimensional models for physician confirmation.

Evidence status: each field states its source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established, and vendor documentation pending remain distinct outcomes.

Implementation

Questions for IT, informatics, and operations

Use these fields to structure a vendor demo, security review, and implementation estimate.

Integration
DICOM import and output to PACS, reporting, or downstream systems; validate identifiers, series selection, measurements, units, geometry, routing, and round trips.
  • Public source
  • Product family
  • Checked 2026-09-03

Current vendor materials are product-family evidence for K223556; confirm the exact cleared version, enabled options, deployment, and local compatibility.

Deployment and data flow
Software on a workstation, server, or supported virtual environment with release-specific licenses.
  • Public source
  • Product family
  • Checked 2026-09-03

Security and privacy
Vendor documentation pending
  • Vendor confirmation
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-03

Public materials reviewed for this exact release do not establish the complete security posture. Request data-flow, identity, audit, encryption, retention, remote-access, vulnerability-management, backup, and incident-response evidence.

Training and support
Only qualified imaging professionals and physicians trained for the represented anatomy and workflow should operate or interpret the product. Local onboarding should cover the exact release, supported population, limitations, failure examples, escalation, downtime, and competency documentation.

Monitoring and change control
Monitor by exact hardware, software, model, and algorithm version; patient population; anatomy; protocol; operator; input quality; output edits or overrides; failed studies; repeat acquisition or rework; downstream impact; downtime; incidents; recalls; and updates. Track these product-specific limits: Outputs supplement accepted interpretation methods and require review against source images; supported modality, anatomy, protocol, and version limits apply.

Release and scope verification

Map the installed model, build, options, population, anatomy, inputs, outputs, and enabled AI functions to K223556 before acceptance.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-03

Later product-family features are not evidence that this cleared release includes them.

Interoperability acceptance

DICOM import and output to PACS, reporting, or downstream systems; validate identifiers, series selection, measurements, units, geometry, routing, and round trips.

product family · checked 2026-09-03

Test representative identifiers, orientation, geometry, measurements, units, routing, failure handling, and round trips locally. Vendor statements are current product-family context; confirm the exact cleared release and installed options.

Clinical acceptance

Use a signed local test set for the supported population and workflow. Include common and difficult cases, exclusions, acquisition variation, failed or low-quality inputs, reviewer overrides, and downstream effects. Outputs supplement accepted interpretation methods and require review against source images; supported modality, anatomy, protocol, and version limits apply.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-03

Define stop-use, escalation, rollback, and revalidation triggers before production use.

Economic evaluation

Model capital and recurring cost against net staff time after review, throughput, repeat imaging or rework, room time, consumables, infrastructure, training, service, downtime, upgrade, and replacement costs.

product family · checked 2026-09-03

No exact-product price was found in the reviewed public material; vendor productivity claims are scenario inputs, not guaranteed local savings.

Lifecycle monitoring

Monitor by exact hardware, software, model, and algorithm version; patient population; anatomy; protocol; operator; input quality; output edits or overrides; failed studies; repeat acquisition or rework; downstream impact; downtime; incidents; recalls; and updates. Track these product-specific limits: Outputs supplement accepted interpretation methods and require review against source images; supported modality, anatomy, protocol, and version limits apply.

product family · checked 2026-09-03

Revalidate after material software, hardware, model, protocol, interface, or clinical-policy changes. Vendor statements are current product-family context; confirm the exact cleared release and installed options.

Evidence

Performance evidence

Metrics are shown only when they are tied to a source, endpoint, population, and tested product version. Candidate literature without exact product and version linkage is not shown as product evidence.

Evidence summary
K223556 reports deep-learning segmentation and quantitative-analysis validation for the named whole-body CT structures. The physician must confirm results; the FDA summary does not establish a universal diagnostic-performance, prognostic, or treatment-recommendation claim.

Costs and setup

Budget and ongoing governance

These are common procurement questions; unknown values remain visible until a source supports them.

No public list price for the exact cleared configuration was found. Obtain a written quote separating hardware or license basis, implementation, interfaces, infrastructure, training, service, upgrades, renewal, consumables, and exit costs.

Reimbursement and coding
No separate named-product Medicare payment was identified in the reviewed CMS coverage material. Evaluate the product within the applicable imaging, procedural, or surgical service line and verify payer, site-of-service, and coding assumptions independently.

Safety and lifecycle

Postmarket record

Recall and adverse-event records are shown only after product matching. Adverse-event reports do not establish incidence or causality.

Postmarket safety review
The 2026-09-02 openFDA device-recall snapshot contained no record matched to K223556 by exact submission identifier. This does not exclude product-family, later, or adverse-event information.
  • Public source
  • Exact FDA submission

Recovered from the prior exact-submission extraction and normalized under the current provenance rules. Exact FDA decision materials were reviewed for identity, indication, users, workflow, limitations, and submitted performance. Current vendor material is labeled product-family context where it does not establish the exact release. PubMed and ClinicalTrials.gov results are retained as candidate evidence with version applicability pending; CMS reimbursement context and exact-identifier openFDA postmarket results were also checked. Pricing, final security architecture, contracted services, enabled options, and local interoperability remain organization-specific evidence. Automated exact-name discovery found 4 PubMed and 1 ClinicalTrials.gov candidate records. Candidates require human product and version matching; zero candidates is not evidence that no studies exist. Native FDA recall identifiers produced 0 postmarket candidate records; 0 have been reviewed (0 published, 0 rejected) and 0 remain unreviewed.

Candidate leads remain unpublished until a human confirms the exact product and tested version.
