What this tool is for

Start with the authorized purpose, then verify how it fits your service line and reading workflow.

Exact purpose
Triage and notification of suspected intracranial hemorrhage on non-contrast head CT in adults and transitional adolescents aged 18 years and older, to assist prioritization while full images remain subject to standard-of-care interpretation.

Workflow role
Notification-only triage in parallel with standard-of-care interpretation; suspected cases are prioritized without altering images, removing cases from the reading queue, or replacing full-image review.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Required input
DICOM non-contrast head CT images for adults or transitional adolescents aged 18 years and older; the device receives images automatically from registered or whitelisted PACS connections and does not query PACS to retrieve images.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Output and human action
Notification of suspected positive ICH cases with compressed preview images for information and notification only; no segmentation, intermediate analysis, or image marking is provided. Notifications may be sent through PACS, workstation, email, mobile SMS, and push notification.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Limitations
The compressed preview is not for diagnostic use and the software is not a diagnostic device. Notified specialists must review the full original NCCT under standard of care; original images are not modified and cases are not removed or deprioritized. The FDA indication is NCCT head ICH triage, not CTA or autonomous diagnosis.

Implementation

Questions for IT, informatics, and operations

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

Integration
The packet specifies PACS registration using IP, port, AE title, and TLS authentication, DICOM receipt through an allowlisted PACS connection, a dedicated server/worklist, and notification channels including PACS, workstation, email, SMS, and push. Specific current deployment details and interface versions are not established.

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
FDA K233247 reports a retrospective multicenter study of 600 NCCT images from three US hospitals, with 46.2% ICH-positive and 53.8% negative cases. Ground truth used two US board-certified neuroradiologists with third-reader adjudication. Primary sensitivity was 86.3% (95% CI 81.9-90.3) and specificity was 87.6% (95% CI 83.9-91.0); secondary results included NPV 88.1%, PPV 85.6%, AUC 0.945, and time-to-notification 60.3 +/- 39.3 seconds (range 9-161 seconds).

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 exact-identifier FDA recall query returned no native recall record for K233247. This limited result does not establish absence of recalls or other safety information and does not cover later versions, family records, MAUDE reports, corrections, or field notices.

Exact-submission ACR model-card fields were normalized under the current provenance rules; vendor and independent-study confirmation remain distinct. Exact FDA scope controls clinical claims. ACR provides bounded exact-submission catalog context. Candidate literature metadata remains a discovery queue until full-text identity, endpoint, population, and version review is completed. Automated exact-name discovery found 0 PubMed and 0 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.
