Passively triage adult frontal chest X-rays for suspected pleural effusion and/or pneumothorax by providing case-level PACS worklist output; not a standalone clinical-decision tool or a rule-out result.
Evidence status: each field states its source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established, and vendor documentation pending remain distinct outcomes.

What this tool is for
Start with the authorized purpose, then verify how it fits your service line and reading workflow.
Exact purpose
Passively triage adult frontal chest X-rays for suspected pleural effusion and/or pneumothorax by providing case-level PACS worklist output; not a standalone clinical-decision tool or a rule-out result.
Standard-of-care chest-radiograph worklist workflow; FDA testing included hospitals and private clinics, but the indication does not restrict a facility type.
Passive notification and worklist prioritization in parallel with standard of care; the device does not send a proactive alert, direct attention to a specific image portion, alter order, remove cases, or flag a condition as absent.
Case-level passive output in PACS/workstation that flags images suspicious for pleural effusion and/or pneumothorax and generates a secondary capture; unflagged cases remain in the routine reading worklist.
Targets only suspected pleural effusion and pneumothorax on adult frontal AP/PA chest radiographs. It is passive prioritization, not a proactive alert, does not rule out a condition, does not mark a specific image location, and must not be used alone for clinical decision-making. The FDA packet reports different training-set geographic percentages in its device-description and testing sections, so those percentages should not be normalized without clarification.
The FDA listing establishes the regulatory identity. It does not by itself establish local workflow fit, pricing, security, or performance in your environment.
Use these fields to structure a vendor demo, security review, and implementation estimate.
Integration
DICOM frontal chest radiographs are received through PACS and suspected cases are passively flagged in the PACS/worklist, with secondary-capture output; the FDA comparison references PACS/RIS/EPR destinations but does not establish a specific interface, version, or deployment model.
Deployment category preserved from the prior exact-submission review; hosting region, data flow, and current commercial configuration still require vendor confirmation.
ACR AI Central provides an exact-submission model card for Radify Triage; FDA labeling remains controlling for clinical use, limitations, and performance.
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 K231871 reports retrospective standalone testing using 1,229 US scans, including 270 pneumothorax and 392 pleural-effusion cases, with three board-certified ABR radiologists establishing ground truth across a hospital and private clinics. Pneumothorax performance was AUC 97.43 (95% CI 97.12-97.74), sensitivity 94.81% (93.90%-95.73%), and specificity 97.91% (97.00%-98.83%). Pleural-effusion performance was AUC 97.61 (97.36-97.86), sensitivity 94.39% (93.26%-95.51%), and specificity 96.42% (95.29%-98.00%); mean analysis-to-worklist time was 3 seconds.
No contextualized exact-version metric has completed evidence review. Regulatory-document values, when available, are shown above with their limitations.

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 K231871. 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.
Verify security and privacy controls: Exact-release security controls, data retention, hosting boundaries, and scoped assurance documentation require vendor confirmation.
Verify training: Current training prerequisites, competency checks, and support commitments for the exact configuration require vendor confirmation.
Verify pricing and total cost: No public price or quote for the exact K231871 configuration was established in this review.
Verify reimbursement and coding relevance: No exact-product payer policy, coding instruction, or payment determination was established; eligibility must be evaluated by payer, site of service, and use case.
Verify local validation and lifecycle monitoring: Current drift, quality, uptime, alert, escalation, and incident-response commitments for the exact configuration require vendor confirmation.

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.
