Authorized purpose: Parallel worklist triage for suspected vertebral compression fractures in patients aged 50 years and over within the standard-of-care bone-health setting; not a diagnostic device
Evidence status: each field states its source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established, and vendor documentation pending remain distinct outcomes.

Overview status: Source-reviewed overview
What does this software do?Authorized purpose: Parallel worklist triage for suspected vertebral compression fractures in patients aged 50 years and over within the standard-of-care bone-health setting; not a diagnostic device
Which images or clinical context are in scope?Modality: CT/CTA Anatomy or clinical context: Thoracic and lumbar vertebrae T1-L5 within chest and/or abdomen CT Input: DICOM non-enhanced or contrast-enhanced CT of the chest and/or abdomen in patients aged 50 years and over, including at least three consecutive measurable vertebrae in the T1-L5 portion of the spine
Who uses it?Intended users: Hospital networks and appropriately trained medical specialists within the standard-of-care bone-health setting
What does the software produce?Output: Worklist icon/flag for suspected VCF at T1-L5 and a compressed grayscale unannotated preview marked not for diagnostic use; results are transferred to PACS or a workstation for prioritization and the full original study remains required
What is its most important limitation?Key limitation: Not intended for diagnosis; preview is informational and not diagnostic; clinician must review the full study using standard of care; the device operates in parallel and does not alter original images or remove cases from the worklist
Clinical takeaway
Clinical role: Parallel worklist triage for suspected vertebral compression fractures in patients aged 50 years and over within the standard-of-care bone-health setting; not a diagnostic device
Evidence takeaway
Evidence from the reviewed source record: Retrospective multicenter, multinational, blinded study used 474 cases, 180 positive and 294 negative, with ground truth by consensus of three US-board-certified expert radiologists. Primary endpoint ROC AUC was 0.974 (95% CI 0.962-0.986) against a 0.95 performance goal. Additional sensitivity was 95.2% (90.7%-97.9%), specificity 92.9% (89.4%-96.5%), and accuracy 93.7% (91.1%-95.7%). Mean time-to-notification was 23.4 seconds for all cases and 21.7 seconds for 158 true-positive cases

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
VCF Image Processing Application can be used with the CINA Platform cleared under K200855 or another compatible medical image communications device. DICOM services connect CT modalities or other DICOM nodes such as routers and PACS, with a Worklist client receiving notifications; exact local versions are not established
Deployment category preserved from the prior exact-submission review; hosting region, data flow, and current commercial configuration still require vendor confirmation.
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.

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 K240612. 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 K240612 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.

The refreshed discovery snapshot contains 1 PubMed and 0 ClinicalTrials.gov candidate record. Discovery metadata alone does not establish exact tested-product, version, population, and endpoint applicability, so all candidates remain quarantined and none was promoted. The current discovery snapshot contains 1 PubMed and 0 ClinicalTrials.gov candidate records; its dated, count-matched human screening remains current. Unlinked candidates remain quarantined. Native FDA recall identifiers produced 0 postmarket candidate records; 0 have been reviewed (0 published, 0 rejected) and 0 remain unreviewed.
Candidate leads were screened against the exact product and tested version. Unlinked records remain quarantined.
