  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Care setting and population
Chest CT and radiology workflow for single or serial thoracic studies.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Workflow role
User-assisted semi-automatic nodule segmentation, measurement, and longitudinal comparison; results are informational, not diagnostic, and the clinician reviews and corrects the segmentation against the original images.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Required input
Non-contrast chest CT scans with user-selected or user-segmented solid pulmonary nodules at least 6 mm; DICOM input, received as de-identified scans through a modality or PACS.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Output and human action
Quantitative nodule average, long-axis, short-axis, and effective diameters, volume, mean/minimum/maximum HU, volume-doubling time, 2D/3D segmented views, Lung-RADS calculation, Brock Score risk calculation, and Fleischner-guideline-based reporting support.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08
Limitations
The device is not intended to diagnose disease or replace physician evaluation. Image noise and artifacts may reduce performance; use is not intended for idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis or extensive granulomatous disease or scans outside compatibility. Follow-up should use consistent CT parameters, and the clinician must verify or manually correct segmentation. Calculator and guideline outputs depend on user-entered information.

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
A cloud module receives de-identified DICOM scans from a modality or PACS and returns results to the same destination. PACS mode uses a secondary-capture series with segmentation for PACS supporting GSPS output; web mode displays overlays in the Qure web application. Exact local interfaces and versions are not established.

Deployment and data flow
On-cloud
  • 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.

Monitoring and change control
Vendor documentation pending

  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-08

Current drift, quality, uptime, alert, escalation, and incident-response 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 qCT LN Quant; 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 standalone clinical performance testing included 216 solid nodules from 118 chest CT scans of 104 subjects, with ground truth established by three expert radiologists. Median absolute normalized errors were 14.3% for short-axis diameter (95% CI 13.95%-16.67%), 11.1% for long-axis diameter (9.52%-12.50%), and 20.7% for volume (17.29%-22.41%). The packet describes these as quantitative measurement results against the reference standard and does not report diagnostic sensitivity or specificity.

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 K240740. 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.
