Rapid is an image processing software package to be used by trained professionals, including but not limited to physicians and medical technicians. The software runs on a standard off-the-shelf computer or as VMware, and can be used to perform image viewing, processing and analysis of images. Data and images are acquired through DICOM compliant imaging devices.
Rapid provides both viewing and analysis capabilities for functional and dynamic imaging datasets acquired with CT, CT Perfusion (CTP), CT Angiography (CTA), and MRI including a Diffusion Weighted MRI (DWI) Module and a Dynamic Analysis Module (dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging data for MRI and CT).
The CT analysis includes NCCT maps showing areas of hypodense and hyperdense tissue.
The DWI Module is used to visualize local water diffusion properties from the analysis of diffusion - weighted MRI data.
The Dynamic Analysis Module is used for visualization and analysis of dynamic imaging data, showing properties of changes in contrast over time. This functionality includes calculation of parameters related to tissue flow (perfusion) and tissue blood volume.
Rapid CT-Perfusion and Rapid MR-Perfusion can be used by physicians to aid in the selection of acute patients (with known ocuusion of the intracranial internal carotid artery or proximal middle cerebral artery)
Instructions for the use of contrast agents for this in Appendix A of the User's Manual. Additional information for safe and effective drug use is available in the product-specific iodinated CT and gadolinium-based MR contrast drug labeling.
In addition to the Rapid imaging criteria, patients must requirements for thrombectomy, as assessed by the physician, and have none of the following contraindications or exclusions:
- Bolus Quality: absent or inadequate bolus.
- Patient Motion: excessive motion leading to artifacts that make the scan technically inadequate .
- . Presence of hemorrhage

Study Details
-
Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Test Set Sample Size: N=619 axial image slices.
- Data Provenance: The text does not explicitly state the country of origin for the test set data. It mentions that samples were obtained from "Siemens, GE, Toshiba, Philips, and Neurologica" for training, and for the independent validation, "The samples were primarily from Siemens with GE mixed." This suggests a multi-vendor, and likely multi-site, collection. The study appears to be retrospective as it uses existing medical images for evaluation.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- Number of Experts: 3
- Qualifications of Experts: Described as "experienced truthers." Specific qualifications (e.g., years of experience, subspecialty) are not provided.
-
Adjudication method for the test set:
- The document states "ground truth established by 3 experienced truthers." While it doesn't explicitly mention a 2+1 or 3+1 method, the implication of "established by" multiple experts suggests a consensus-based approach was used to determine the ground truth from these three experts. It does not state "none."
-
If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:
- No, a multi-reader, multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance was not conducted or reported in this summary for the NCCT Motion Artifact AI/ML Module. The performance evaluation is for the standalone algorithm.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
- Yes, a standalone algorithm performance study was done for the NCCT Motion Artifact AI/ML Module. The reported metrics (AUC, Sensitivity, Specificity) are for the algorithm's performance in detecting motion artifacts.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- The ground truth for the test set was established by expert consensus from 3 experienced truthers.
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Training Set: 23,066 axial image slices (Positive: 1,021, Negative: 12,877).
- Training Validation Set: 5,906 axial image slices (Positive: 422, Negative: 5,484).
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- The document does not explicitly detail how the ground truth for the training data was established. However, given the context of medical image analysis and the subsequent use of "experienced truthers" for independent validation, it's highly probable that human expert review and labeling were also used to establish the ground truth for the training and training validation sets.

510(k) Summary
Technological Characteristics:
Rapid performs the following functions:
- processes DICOM images from multiple sources to provide visualization of changes . of tissue perfusion, diffusion and change.
- receives DICOM images from external DICOM image providers (modalities (CT/MRI . Scanners), PACS and Workstations) and sends DICOM images to external image consumers.
- . processes requests, statuses and results, and references therein, which are stored in a searchable database
- processing status is available through a web browser using HTTP, HTML and PHP. ●
- . for NCCT images, a motion filter (AI/ML) is employed which provides a textual overlay on an image suspected of having motion artifacts, without distorting the original image
- can send summary results to the user over email. For this, Rapid generally connects to ● the infrastructure of the medical partner (e.g., the hospital). In particular, Rapid uses a SMTP protocol with security extensions to provide secure communications.
Rapid is available in the following configurations:
- Standard Rapid, which is installed directly on a customer's Linux-based server and . integrated with medical image processing software such as commercial PACS.
- . Virtual Rapid, wherein the user accesses Rapid online and uses it to process DICOM images otherwise available on his/her computer.
Rapid is a DICOM-compliant PACS software that provides comprehensive functionality to transfer, process, and display modality specific imaging data. Rapid runs on standard "offthe- shelf computer and networking hardware. Rapid is entirely independent from CT, MRI, or independent PACS platforms. It supports secure VPN (Virtual Private Network) networking or encapsulated Secure Shell (SSH), and seamlessly integrates into an existing radiological data network.

§ 892.2050 Medical image management and processing system.
(a)
Identification. A medical image management and processing system is a device that provides one or more capabilities relating to the review and digital processing of medical images for the purposes of interpretation by a trained practitioner of disease detection, diagnosis, or patient management. The software components may provide advanced or complex image processing functions for image manipulation, enhancement, or quantification that are intended for use in the interpretation and analysis of medical images. Advanced image manipulation functions may include image segmentation, multimodality image registration, or 3D visualization. Complex quantitative functions may include semi-automated measurements or time-series measurements.(b)
