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: Adjunctive assignment of a BI-RADS 5th Edition breast-density category for interpreting-physician review of mammography.
Overview status: Source-reviewed overview
What does this software do?Authorized purpose: Adjunctive assignment of a BI-RADS 5th Edition breast-density category for interpreting-physician review of mammography.
Which images or clinical context are in scope?Modality: Mammography/DBT Anatomy or clinical context: Breast tissue composition Input: A single x-ray mammogram study with acceptable 2D image DICOM files from FFDM and/or 2D synthetic images, used with compatible FFDM and DBT systems; labeled patients are females aged 35 or older undergoing mammography.
Who uses it?Intended users: Interpreting physicians qualified to read mammography exams
What does the software produce?Output: One study-level breast-density category from A through D under BI-RADS 5th Edition guidelines, delivered as a DICOM Structured Report containing the case-level category and a DICOM Secondary Capture summary report viewable on a mammography workstation.
What is its most important limitation?Key limitation: The device is adjunctive and not a diagnostic aid or replacement for physician review; decisions must not rely solely on its analysis. Use is labeled for compatible FFDM/DBT systems and female patients aged 35 or older.
Clinical takeaway
Clinical role: Adjunctive assignment of a BI-RADS 5th Edition breast-density category for interpreting-physician review of mammography.
Evidence takeaway
Evidence from the reviewed source record: FDA packet: software unit, integration, and system verification plus retrospective validation described as performed under prior submission K222275. Validation data came from clinical sites distinct from algorithm-development sites, with no training/test overlap stated in this packet; K243705 itself discloses no sample size or numeric sensitivity, specificity, AUC, or other clinical performance values.

Exact purpose
Adjunctive assignment of a BI-RADS 5th Edition breast-density category for interpreting-physician review of mammography.
A single x-ray mammogram study with acceptable 2D image DICOM files from FFDM and/or 2D synthetic images, used with compatible FFDM and DBT systems; labeled patients are females aged 35 or older undergoing mammography.
One study-level breast-density category from A through D under BI-RADS 5th Edition guidelines, delivered as a DICOM Structured Report containing the case-level category and a DICOM Secondary Capture summary report viewable on a mammography workstation.
The device is adjunctive and not a diagnostic aid or replacement for physician review; decisions must not rely solely on its analysis. Use is labeled for compatible FFDM/DBT systems and female patients aged 35 or older.
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
DICOM SR and DICOM Secondary Capture outputs are viewable on a mammography workstation. The submission describes single-execution and cloud-enabled deployment options, but the exact commercial deployment topology and local PACS/RIS/EHR interface are not established in the packet.
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 Saige-Density (2.5.0); 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.

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 K243705. 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 K243705 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.
