aPROMISE

EXINI Diagnostics AB

Authorized purpose: aPROMISE is a cloud-based platform for healthcare professionals and researchers to accept, transfer, store, display, manipulate, quantify, and report PSMA PET/CT examinations using the PROMISE framework.

Evidence status: each field states its source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established, and vendor documentation pending remain distinct outcomes.

Product overview

Start with the essentials

Authorized purpose: aPROMISE is a cloud-based platform for healthcare professionals and researchers to accept, transfer, store, display, manipulate, quantify, and report PSMA PET/CT examinations using the PROMISE framework.

Overview status: Source-reviewed overview

Clinical takeaway

Clinical role: aPROMISE is a cloud-based platform for healthcare professionals and researchers to accept, transfer, store, display, manipulate, quantify, and report PSMA PET/CT examinations using the PROMISE framework.

Evidence takeaway

Evidence from the reviewed source record: K211655 reports phantom validation, predicate comparison, analytical performance, and a clinical study comparing platform-supported PSMA PET/CT quantification with clinician assessment. The FDA summary does not provide one universal sensitivity or specificity value; exact tracer, acquisition, and version applicability must be checked before using candidate publications as performance evidence.

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
aPROMISE is a cloud-based platform for healthcare professionals and researchers to accept, transfer, store, display, manipulate, quantify, and report PSMA PET/CT examinations using the PROMISE framework.
  • FDA source

  • Checked 2026-09-19

Clinical-use display mirrors the exact FDA-supported purpose reconciled from the decision-summary packet.

Intended users
Healthcare professionals and researchers.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-19

This is the exact intended-user class in the indication statement; the current qualified-specialist role list is not stated.

Care setting and population

Required input
PSMA PET/CT image data in the form of DICOM files.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-19

The direct packet input statement replaces the current radiopharmaceutical-metadata addition.

Output and human action
The review page displays studies in a 4-panel view showing PET, CT, PET/CT fusion and maximum intensity projection (MIP) simultaneously. Selected or drawn hotspots are subject to automatic quantitative analysis. Signed reports are saved in the device and can be exported as a JPG or DICOM file.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-19

The exact packet supports PET/CT visualization, hotspot analysis, quantitative analysis, and signed-report export; it does not state the current disease-burden wording.

Limitations
Both aPROMISE and the predicate aBSI rely on the user to make the final selection of regions of interest that are considered as lesions. To create a report the signing user is required to confirm quality control, and electronically sign the report preview.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-19

These are the packet's direct user-confirmation and report-quality-control boundaries; tracer, acquisition, reconstruction, and literature limitations are not stated in this packet.

Implementation

Questions for IT, informatics, and operations

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

Integration
K211655 describes DICOM transfer, a four-panel PET/CT/fusion/MIP display, ROI quantification, user quality control, electronic report confirmation, and archival workflow. Current EXINI or PYlarify material is product-family context and does not prove the exact deployed cloud configuration.
  • Public source
  • Product family
  • Checked 2026-09-03

Current vendor materials are product-family evidence for K211655; confirm the exact cleared version, enabled options, deployment, and local compatibility.

Deployment and data flow
Cloud-based web platform as described in K211655; confirm hosting region, tenant isolation, identity, retention, and current product build with the vendor.
  • Public source
  • Product family
  • Checked 2026-09-03

Current vendor materials are product-family evidence for K211655; confirm the exact cleared version, enabled options, deployment, and local compatibility.

Security and privacy
Vendor documentation pending
  • Vendor confirmation
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-03

Public materials reviewed for this exact release do not establish the complete security posture. Request data-flow, identity, audit, encryption, retention, remote-access, vulnerability-management, backup, and incident-response evidence.

Training and support
Only qualified nuclear medicine physicians, radiologists, and trained imaging analysts should operate or interpret the product. Local onboarding should cover the exact release, supported population, limitations, failure examples, escalation, downtime, and competency documentation.
  • FDA source
  • Exact FDA submission
  • Checked 2026-09-03
Monitoring and change control
Monitor by exact hardware, software, model, and algorithm version; patient population; anatomy; protocol; operator; input quality; output edits or overrides; failed studies; repeat acquisition or rework; downstream impact; downtime; incidents; recalls; and updates. Track these product-specific limits: Quantification depends on tracer, acquisition, reconstruction, segmentation, image quality, and user quality-control steps; candidate literature and current family materials do not establish exact-version performance unless explicitly linked to the submission.

Later product-family features are not evidence that this cleared release includes them.

Interoperability acceptance

K211655 describes DICOM transfer, a four-panel PET/CT/fusion/MIP display, ROI quantification, user quality control, electronic report confirmation, and archival workflow. Current EXINI or PYlarify material is product-family context and does not prove the exact deployed cloud configuration.

Test representative identifiers, orientation, geometry, measurements, units, routing, failure handling, and round trips locally. Vendor statements are current product-family context; confirm the exact cleared release and installed options.

Clinical acceptance

Use a signed local test set for the supported population and workflow. Include common and difficult cases, exclusions, acquisition variation, failed or low-quality inputs, reviewer overrides, and downstream effects. Quantification depends on tracer, acquisition, reconstruction, segmentation, image quality, and user quality-control steps; candidate literature and current family materials do not establish exact-version performance unless explicitly linked to the submission.
