COVID-19
The entire global population has been impacted, in one way or another, by the COVID-19 virus. The AI-Rad Companion, our Siemens Healthineers AI driven solution, offers our customers the opportunity to have access to different postprocessing software for the analysis of lung examinations.
AI-Rad Companion Research Chest X-ray Pneumonia Analysis4
This prototype is designed to automatically identify and quantify airspace opacities of the lung, enabling simple to use analysis of chest X-rays for research purposes only (not for clinical use). AI-Rad Companion Research Chest X-ray Pneumonia Analysis will perform automated lung opacity analysis on Chest X-ray (AP or PA viewing direction), highlighting identified regions. Other radiographical findings, such as pneumothorax, pulmonary lesions, atelectasis, consolidation and pleural effusion are included as well.
AI-Rad Companion Chest X-ray2
Chest imaging, X-ray in particular, plays an important role in patient management during the COVID-19 pandemic5. Patient management and clinical decisions depend on clinical outcomes and imaging reports. The new member of the AI-Rad Companion family, the AI-Rad Companion Chest X-ray, automatically processes upright chest X-ray images (PA direction). Next to pneumothorax, pleural effusion and nodule detection, the AI-Rad Companion Chest X-ray is able to indicate consolidations and atelectasis. The latter may be signs of pneumonia caused by the COVID-19 virus.
AI-Rad Companion Brain MR, Chest CT, Prostate MR and Organs RT are not yet commercially available in all countries and their future availability cannot be ensured.
AI-Rad Companion Chest X-ray is currently under development; it is not for sale in the United States and other countries. CE mark is available.
The pulmonary density functionality is not commercially available in all countries, and its future availability cannot be ensured. As soon as this functionality is available and cleared for your country it will become entitled to your institution.
The Pulmonary Density feature is new in VA12A without FDA Clearance. According to FDA policy “Enforcement Policy for Imaging Systems During the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Public Health Emergency” issued in April 2020, the manufacturer is allowed to market this feature without FDA-clearance. This policy is intended to remain in effect only for the duration of the public health emergency related to COVID-19 declared by the HHS, including any renewals made by the HHS Secretary in accordance with section 319(a)(2) of the Public Health Services Act (42 U.S.C. 247d(a)(2)). Pulmonary Density results are not indicated for the diagnosis of COVID-19. Only in vitro diagnostic testing is currently the definitive method to diagnose COVID-19.
For research purpose only. Not for clinical use. This prototype is still under development and not yet commercially available. Its future availability cannot be ensured.
