Authorized purpose: Notification-only, parallel workflow tool for hospital networks and trained clinicians that analyzes acute non-contrast brain CT and communicates suspected intracranial hemorrhage to a neurovascular or neurosurgical specialist for review.
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: Notification-only, parallel workflow tool for hospital networks and trained clinicians that analyzes acute non-contrast brain CT and communicates suspected intracranial hemorrhage to a neurovascular or neurosurgical specialist for review.
Which images or clinical context are in scope?Modality: CT/CTA Anatomy or clinical context: Head/brain; suspected intracranial hemorrhage. Input: Acute-setting non-contrast CT images of the brain from DICOM-compliant imaging devices and modalities.
Who uses it?Intended users: Hospital networks and trained clinicians; notifications are directed to neurovascular or neurosurgical specialists, with treating-physician discussion required before care decisions.
What does the software produce?Output: Notification of suspected intracranial hemorrhage to a neurovascular or neurosurgical specialist, push/toggle notifications, patient/study/image DICOM information, and a compressed non-diagnostic CT preview through the Viz VIEW mobile application.
What is its most important limitation?Key limitation: Mobile previews may be compressed and are informational only, not diagnostic beyond notification. Clinicians must view non-compressed images on a diagnostic viewer, perform full patient evaluation, and discuss care with the treating physician; the device must not be relied on to make or confirm a diagnosis.
Clinical takeaway
Clinical role: Notification-only, parallel workflow tool for hospital networks and trained clinicians that analyzes acute non-contrast brain CT and communicates suspected intracranial hemorrhage to a neurovascular or neurosurgical specialist for review.
Evidence takeaway
Evidence from the reviewed source record: FDA K210209 reports 387 NCCT studies from two U.S. clinical sites, with approximately 50.6% ICH-positive and 49.4% ICH-negative cases; trained neuroradiologists established ground truth. Overall sensitivity was 95% (95% CI 91%-98%) and specificity 96% (95% CI 92%-98%), meeting the prespecified 80% goals. AUC was 0.97, and mean alerting time was 0.49+/-0.08 minutes versus 18.3+/-14.2 minutes for standard-of-care notification; AUC and latency are separate endpoints. Subgroup estimates were reported by site, age, gender, hemorrhage subtype, slice thickness, scanner manufacturer/model, volume threshold, and reconstruction method.

What this tool is for
Start with the authorized purpose, then verify how it fits your service line and reading workflow.
Exact purpose
Notification-only, parallel workflow tool for hospital networks and trained clinicians that analyzes acute non-contrast brain CT and communicates suspected intracranial hemorrhage to a neurovascular or neurosurgical specialist for review.
Hospital networks and trained clinicians; notifications are directed to neurovascular or neurosurgical specialists, with treating-physician discussion required before care decisions.
Acute hospital-network workflow parallel to standard-of-care interpretation; image analysis is hosted on Viz.ai servers and notifications are available through the mobile module.
Parallel specialist-notification and communication workflow; it prioritizes review without marking or altering original images and is not a diagnostic or full-patient-evaluation substitute.
Notification of suspected intracranial hemorrhage to a neurovascular or neurosurgical specialist, push/toggle notifications, patient/study/image DICOM information, and a compressed non-diagnostic CT preview through the Viz VIEW mobile application.
Mobile previews may be compressed and are informational only, not diagnostic beyond notification. Clinicians must view non-compressed images on a diagnostic viewer, perform full patient evaluation, and discuss care with the treating physician; the device must not be relied on to make or confirm a diagnosis.
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
The image-analysis algorithm is hosted on Viz.ai servers and receives DICOM studies forwarded from CT scanners; the Viz VIEW mobile module provides notifications and non-diagnostic previews. The packet does not establish a specific PACS/RIS/EHR route, interface version, or current commercial configuration.
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.
Evidence summary
FDA K210209 reports 387 NCCT studies from two U.S. clinical sites, with approximately 50.6% ICH-positive and 49.4% ICH-negative cases; trained neuroradiologists established ground truth. Overall sensitivity was 95% (95% CI 91%-98%) and specificity 96% (95% CI 92%-98%), meeting the prespecified 80% goals. AUC was 0.97, and mean alerting time was 0.49+/-0.08 minutes versus 18.3+/-14.2 minutes for standard-of-care notification; AUC and latency are separate endpoints. Subgroup estimates were reported by site, age, gender, hemorrhage subtype, slice thickness, scanner manufacturer/model, volume threshold, and reconstruction method.
Overall Viz ICH sensitivity: 95% (95% CI 91%-98%) across 387 NCCT studies from two U.S. sites, with ground truth established by trained neuroradiologists.
