Authorized purpose: Adjunct assessment of early ischemic brain tissue injury and extent of disease in adult ischemic-stroke diagnostic imaging workup, typically within 24 hours of last known well
Evidence status: each field states its source quality, applicability, and review date. Research pending, information not established, and vendor documentation pending remain distinct outcomes.

What does this software do?Authorized purpose: Adjunct assessment of early ischemic brain tissue injury and extent of disease in adult ischemic-stroke diagnostic imaging workup, typically within 24 hours of last known well
Which images or clinical context are in scope?Modality: CT/CTA Anatomy or clinical context: Brain/head ASPECTS regions Input: NCCT brain image data from adult patients presenting for diagnostic imaging workup; Rapid uses DICOM-compatible Rapid/PACS workflow and the ASPECTS processing pipeline
Who uses it?Intended users: Clinicians and medical imaging professionals, including neuroradiologists and other physicians; the reader study represented neurology, radiology, emergency medicine, and neurocritical care readers
What does the software produce?Output: Automatic ASPECTS score with identified and highlighted atlas regions, numerical scoring, and overlays for early ischemic change and prior stroke areas; the clinician may review/edit the result before sending the score, selected regions, and underlying values to PACS or a workstation
What is its most important limitation?Key limitation: Use only for ischemic stroke following standard of care; adjunct only and not a replacement for original-image review or clinical judgment; do not use CAD output as the primary interpretation; exclude technically inadequate motion, hemorrhagic transformation or hematoma, and very thin or absent ventricles
Clinical takeaway
Clinical role: Adjunct assessment of early ischemic brain tissue injury and extent of disease in adult ischemic-stroke diagnostic imaging workup, typically within 24 hours of last known well
Evidence takeaway
Evidence from the reviewed source record: The FDA packet reports standalone performance on 88 cases and reader-improvement analysis on 102 scans. Standalone percent agreement with the reference at both region and scan level was 82.8%. In the reader study, agreement with the reference increased from 82% to 84% excluding the expert, and average agreement increased from 80.4% to 83.3% with assistance. A supplemental confounder set changed 3 of 115 reads (2.6%).

Start with the authorized purpose, then verify how it fits your service line and reading workflow.
Exact purpose
Adjunct assessment of early ischemic brain tissue injury and extent of disease in adult ischemic-stroke diagnostic imaging workup, typically within 24 hours of last known well
Clinicians and medical imaging professionals, including neuroradiologists and other physicians; the reader study represented neurology, radiology, emergency medicine, and neurocritical care readers
Acute ischemic-stroke diagnostic imaging, including community hospitals and primary stroke centers and acute work in comprehensive centers as described in the FDA risk-benefit discussion
Concurrent CADx adjunct: presents original and annotated images, atlas ROIs, and numerical scoring for clinician review and verification; it is not the primary interpretation
NCCT brain image data from adult patients presenting for diagnostic imaging workup; Rapid uses DICOM-compatible Rapid/PACS workflow and the ASPECTS processing pipeline
Automatic ASPECTS score with identified and highlighted atlas regions, numerical scoring, and overlays for early ischemic change and prior stroke areas; the clinician may review/edit the result before sending the score, selected regions, and underlying values to PACS or a workstation
Use only for ischemic stroke following standard of care; adjunct only and not a replacement for original-image review or clinical judgment; do not use CAD output as the primary interpretation; exclude technically inadequate motion, hemorrhagic transformation or hematoma, and very thin or absent ventricles
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
Rapid can run within the Rapid Platform on a customer server or online virtual system, receives/processes image data through the PACS/Rapid workflow, and sends the final score and regional data to PACS or a workstation using DICOM-related interoperability
Deployment category preserved from the prior exact-submission review; hosting region, data flow, and current commercial configuration still require vendor confirmation.
ACR AI Central provides an exact-submission model card for Rapid ASPECTS (v3); 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. Candidate literature without exact product and version linkage is not shown as product evidence.

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 K232156. 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 K232156 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.
