FDA Clears AI-Powered Stroke Imaging Tool for Non-Contrast CT
Through artificial intelligence (AI) assessment of non-contrast computed tomography (CT) scans, the Brainomix 360 e-ASPECTS software provides an automated ASPECTS score and heatmap to enhance stroke imaging.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted 510(k) clearance for the Brainomix 360 e-ASPECTS software (Brainomix), which provides adjunctive artificial intelligence (AI) assessment of computed tomography (CT) scans of the brain and automated scoring with the Alberta Stroke Program Early CT score (ASPECTS) system.
As part of the Brainomix 360 stroke platform, which emphasizes real-time AI-enabled interpretation of brain imaging in stroke patients, the e-ASPECTS software provides enhanced heatmap visualization and automated ASPECTS scoring based on non-contrast CT scans, according to Brainomix.
The company said recent studies have demonstrated the stroke imaging platform’s ability to reduce door-in door-out times and reportedly triple the number of patients regaining functional independence after stroke.
“Our e-ASPECTS tool has been shown, in multiple countries and healthcare systems, to improve physicians’ interpretations of ASPECTS scores on non-contrast CT scans … ,” noted Michalis Papadakis, CEO and co-founder of Brainomix. “Our technology supports these physicians who are making time-sensitive, critical decisions around transfer and treatment, strengthening networks and facilitating an improved stroke service.”

Can Radiomics Bolster Low-Dose CT Prognostic Assessment for High-Risk Lung Adenocarcinoma?
December 16th 2024A CT-based radiomic model offered over 10 percent higher specificity and positive predictive value for high-risk lung adenocarcinoma in comparison to a radiographic model, according to external validation testing in a recent study.
Can AI Facilitate Single-Phase CT Acquisition for COPD Diagnosis and Staging?
December 12th 2024The authors of a new study found that deep learning assessment of single-phase CT scans provides comparable within-one stage accuracies to multiphase CT for detecting and staging chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Study Shows Merits of CTA-Derived Quantitative Flow Ratio in Predicting MACE
December 11th 2024For patients with suspected or known coronary artery disease (CAD) without percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), researchers found that those with a normal CTA-derived quantitative flow ratio (CT-QFR) had a 22 percent higher MACE-free survival rate.
