IQ-UIP

Imbio, Inc.

Passive referral notification of chest-CT findings suggestive of radiological usual interstitial pneumonia to specialists associated with interstitial-lung-disease centers; not diagnosis.

Clinical details

What this tool is for

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

Exact purpose
Passive referral notification of chest-CT findings suggestive of radiological usual interstitial pneumonia to specialists associated with interstitial-lung-disease centers; not diagnosis.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Intended users
Clinicians qualified in the care of lung disease, specifically ILD-center specialists experienced in evaluating chest CTs for ILD
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Care setting and population
Interstitial-lung-disease center referral workflow using chest CT images from the associated hospital network
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Workflow role
Passive triage/referral notification on a dedicated worklist separate from and parallel to standard-of-care image interpretation
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Required input
Non-contrast, volumetric chest CT images from adults; the technological comparison describes adults older than 22 and input images originating within the hospital network associated with the ILD center.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Output and human action
Identification of positive findings suggestive of radiological UIP and a summary report with a clinical-guideline reference on a dedicated worklist; the device does not alter the original image and does not communicate images to patients.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Limitations
The output is informational and not a diagnostic device. Notified clinicians must view the full image series, use additional patient information and professional judgment, and make final clinical determinations. The intended context is adult non-contrast chest CT from the associated hospital network; exact commercial interface details are not established.

Regulatory identity

FDA record and catalog context

The FDA listing establishes the regulatory identity. It does not by itself establish local workflow fit, pricing, security, or performance in your environment.

Implementation

Questions for IT, informatics, and operations

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

Integration
Dedicated IQ-UIP worklist application separate from standard-of-care workflow, with input images originating within the hospital network associated with the ILD center; the exact subject packet does not establish a specific PACS/RIS/EHR interface or DICOM transport detail.

Deployment and data flow
On-premise
  • Public source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-08-13

Deployment category preserved from the prior exact-submission review; hosting region, data flow, and current commercial configuration still require vendor confirmation.

Security and privacy
Vendor documentation pending
  • Vendor confirmation
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08

Exact-release security controls, data retention, hosting boundaries, and scoped assurance documentation require vendor confirmation.

Training and support
Vendor documentation pending
  • Vendor confirmation
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08

Current training prerequisites, competency checks, and support commitments for the exact configuration require vendor confirmation.

Input or output interoperability

DICOM is explicitly referenced in the described input, output, or workflow.

The model card does not establish every supported DICOM object, transfer method, or local interface.

ACR exact-submission catalog context

ACR AI Central provides an exact-submission model card for IQ-UIP; FDA labeling remains controlling for clinical use, limitations, and performance.

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 packet: standalone performance assessment of 804 individual patient images with radiological UIP+ prevalence of 193/804 (24.0%); five independent U.S.-board-certified radiologists with at least five years of ILD chest-CT experience established ground truth. Primary endpoints were AUC ROC 96.6% (95.4%-97.7%) and PPV 77.9% (73.3%-82.8%); secondary specificity was 91.5% (89.2%-93.7%) and sensitivity 90.2% (86.2%-94.3%).

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 K242467. 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.
