FDA-cleared profile

Brain WMH

Quantib BV

Brain WMH automatically labels, visualizes, and volumetrically quantifies white-matter hyperintensities from T2w FLAIR brain MR and returns segmentations, overlays, and measurements as complementary information for trained professionals and quantitative reporting in the labeled population.

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.

Implementation

Questions for IT, informatics, and operations

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

Integration
The FDA package describes DICOM encapsulated PDF and secondary-capture or color-overlay outputs; exact PACS, worklist, and report-return behavior require local testing.
FDA source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-04
Deployment and data flow
On-premise
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
Not established in reviewed sources
Reviewed sources checked Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-04

The FDA decision material does not establish the complete security posture for the exact product and deployment. Obtain architecture, identity, audit, encryption, retention, support-access, vulnerability-management, and incident-response evidence.

Training and support
Only radiologists, neurologists, neuroradiologists, and other trained medical professionals. should operate or interpret this product. Local onboarding must cover the exact release, supported population, limitations, failure examples, escalation, downtime, and competency documentation.
FDA source Exact FDA submission Checked 2026-09-04
Monitoring and change control
Monitor K251527 by exact software, hardware, 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: The cleared population is patients aged 22 years and older without tumor, stroke, other pathology, treatment-induced features, or contrast enhancement as labeled. Results are complementary and require trained professional review.

Release and scope verification

Map the installed product, build, options, population, anatomy, inputs, outputs, and enabled functions to K251527 before acceptance.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-04

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

Deployment boundary

The exact installed deployment, hosting, service, security, and operational boundary remains unverified and requires site-specific confirmation.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-04

FDA-described deployment details do not establish current hosting contracts, security controls, uptime, or local qualification.

Interoperability acceptance

The FDA package describes DICOM encapsulated PDF and secondary-capture or color-overlay outputs; exact PACS, worklist, and report-return behavior require local testing.

exact submission · checked 2026-09-04

Test representative identifiers, orientation, geometry, measurements, units, routing, failure handling, and round trips locally.

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. The cleared population is patients aged 22 years and older without tumor, stroke, other pathology, treatment-induced features, or contrast enhancement as labeled. Results are complementary and require trained professional review.

Define stop-use, escalation, rollback, and revalidation triggers before production use.

Economic evaluation

Model capital and recurring cost against net staff time after review, throughput, repeat imaging or rework, infrastructure, training, service, downtime, upgrade, and replacement costs.

product family · checked 2026-09-04

No exact-product price or product-specific reimbursement was established in the reviewed public material.
