♥ Radiology artificial intelligence company #Aidoc scored FDA 510(k) clearance for its tool for flagging and triaging cases of pneumothorax, or a collapsed lung, on X-rays.
♥ #Aidoc said the software could run on all X-rays, including portable machines, and automatically notes positive cases of #pneumothorax so physicians can focus on these images more quickly.
🔥WHY IT MATTERS
💡Pneumothorax can be caused by chest injuries, some lung diseases and certain medical procedures, according to the Mayo Clinic. It can be life-threatening.
💡Aidoc is positioning its tool as a way to identify a collapsed lung more quickly, so severe complications don't occur.
