Non-invasive processing of adult ultrasound for cardiac measurements including LVEF, wall thickness, and IVC diameter, plus lung and cardiac image-quality feedback in patients with suspected disease.
Evidence status: each field shows source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established in reviewed sources, and vendor documentation pending are distinct outcomes.
Clinical fit
What this tool is for
Start with the authorized purpose, then verify how it fits your service line and reading workflow.
Exact purpose
Non-invasive processing of adult ultrasound for cardiac measurements including LVEF, wall thickness, and IVC diameter, plus lung and cardiac image-quality feedback in patients with suspected disease.
FDA source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-08
Qualified healthcare professionals trained to conduct echocardiography and lung ultrasound scans; certified healthcare professionals interpret the data and remain responsible for scan quality and diagnosis.
FDA source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-08
Real-time acquisition-quality feedback and measurement support; the algorithm/API modules are intended as accessories integrated by a programmer into a legally marketed ultrasound imaging device, while clinicians remain responsible for interpretation and management.
FDA source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-08
Single- and multi-frame DICOM ultrasound images from scanners within the specified compatibility range, including apical four-chamber and parasternal long-axis cardiac views and lung scans.
FDA source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-08
Lung A-line and B-line presence or count and per-frame or per-clip quality scores; cardiac LVEF, interventricular-septum and posterior-wall thickness from the PLAX view, IVC minimum diameter on inspiration, IVC maximum diameter on expiration, and cardiac quality scores.

The device is for adults and patient-management decisions must not rely solely on its analysis. Certified healthcare professionals must review the data and ensure scan quality and diagnostic appropriateness. The packet establishes module-specific validation, not a single performance result for every possible ultrasound use.

ACR exact-submission catalog context
ACR AI Central provides an exact-submission model card for AI Platform 2.0 (AIP002); 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.
Evidence summary
FDA validation evaluated left-ventricular wall thickness and IVC measurements in 100 subjects each against the average of three experts: ICC 0.93 for IVSd (95% CI 0.89-0.96), 0.94 for PWd (0.89-0.97), 0.93 for IVC minimum diameter (0.90-0.95), and 0.94 for IVC maximum diameter (0.90-0.96). Quality AI used 184 patients, 226 clips, and 29,732 frames, with ICC 0.94 for frames (95% CI 0.94-0.95) and clips (0.92-0.95). In real-time testing, 396 scans were performed by 26 users, including 18 novices with two hours of training; 98.3% and 98.0% were conditional agreement proportions against expert quality ratings.

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.
