Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke is a radiological computer aided triage and notification software indicated for use in the analysis of non-contrast head CT (NCCT) images to assist hospital networks and trained clinicians in workflow triage by flagging and communicating suspected positive findings of head NCCT images for large vessel occlusion (LVO) of the intracranial ICA and M1 or intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). Specifically, the device is intended to be used for the triage of images acquired from adult patients in the acute setting, within 24 hours of the onset of the acute symptoms, or where this is unclear, since last known well (LKW) time. It is not intended to detect symmetrical bilateral MCA occlusions.

Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke uses an artificial intelligence algorithm to analyze images and highlight cases with detected NCCT LVO or ICH on the Brainomix server on premise or in the cloud in parallel to the ongoing standard of care image interpretation. The user is presented with notifications for cases with suspected LVO or ICH findings via a web user interface or mobile application. Notifications include compressed preview images that are meant for informational purposes only and are not intended for diagnostic use beyond notification.

The device does not alter the original medical image, and it is not intended to be used as a primary diagnostic device. The results of Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke are intended to be used in conjunction with other patient information and based on professional judgment to assist with triage/prioritization of medical images. Notified clinicians are ultimately responsible for reviewing full images per the standard of care.

Cautions:

• All patients should get adequate care for their symptoms, including angiography and/or other appropriate care per the standard clinical practice, irrespective of the output of Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke.
• Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke is not intended to be a rule-out device and for cases that have been processed by the device without notification for "Suspected LVO" should not be viewed as indicating that LVO is excluded. All cases should undergo angiography, per the standard stroke workup.

Limitations:

1. Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke is not intended for mobile diagnostic use. Images viewed on a mobile platform are compressed preview images and not for diagnostic interpretation.
2. Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke does not replace the need for angiography in ischemic stroke workup - it provides workflow prioritization and notification only.
3. Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke has been validated and is intended to be used on Siemens, GE and Philips scanners.
4. Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke is not intended to be used on patients with recent (within 6 weeks) neurosurgery or endovascular neurointervention or recent (within 4 weeks) previous diagnosis of stroke.
5. Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke is not intended to detect symmetrical bilateral MCA occlusions.

Contraindications:
Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke is not suitable for use with scan data containing image features associated with:

• tumours or abscesses
• coils, shunts, embolization or movement artifacts
• intracranial vascular pathologies such as arterial aneurysms, arteriovenous malformations or venous thrombosis.

Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke (also referred to as Triage Stroke in this submission) is a radiological computer aided triage and notification software package compliant with the DICOM standard and running on an off-the-shelf physical or virtual server. Triage Stroke is a non-contrast CT processing software-only medical device which operates within the integrated Brainomix 360 Platform to provide triage and notification prioritization of suspected large vessel occlusion (LVO) or intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). The device uses machine learning algorithms such as advanced non adaptive imaging algorithms, artificial intelligence, and large data analytics.

Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke is available to users in three configurations, featuring three individual processing modules:

• Triage ICH Module, which can only flag positive findings of suspected ICH;
• Triage Stroke Module, which can flag positive findings of suspected ICH or LVO; And
• NCCT LVO Module, which can flag positive finding of suspected LVO

The Triage ICH Module automatically identifies suspected ICH, the NCCT LVO module automatically identifies suspected LVO, while the Triage Stroke Module automatically identifies suspected ICH or LVO on non-contrast CT (NCCT) imaging acquired from adult patients in the acute setting, within 24 hours of the onset of acute symptoms, or where this is unclear, since last known well (LKW) time. The output of the device is a priority notification to clinicians indicating the suspicion of just ICH for Triage ICH Module, the suspicion of just LVO for the NCCT LVO Module, and suspicion of ICH or LVO for Triage Stroke Module based on positive findings. Specifically, the ICH analysis algorithm is optimized to identify findings of hyperdense volume in the parenchyma typically associated with acute intracranial hemorrhage; and the NCCT LVO suspicion uses the combined analysis of the ASPECTS and hyperdense vessel sign (HDVS) algorithms to identify hyper attenuation in vessels and hypodense regions typically associated with a large vessel occlusion in a non-contrast CT scan.

Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke is not intended to detect symmetrical bilateral MCA occlusions. The device uses the basic services supplied by the Brainomix 360 Platform including DICOM processing, job management, imaging module execution and imaging output including notification and compressed image.

Brainomix 360 Triage Stroke notification capabilities enable clinicians to review and preview images via mobile app notification. Alternatively, intended users can also access the notification (a "Suspected LVO" or "Suspected hemorrhage" flag) and straightened images via the Brainomix 360 web user interface. Images that are previewed via mobile app are compressed, are for preview informational purposes only, and not intended for diagnostic use beyond notification.

The device is intended for use as an additional tool for assisting study triage within existing patient pathways. It does not replace any part of the current standard of care. It is designed to assist in prioritization of studies for reading within a worklist, in addition to any other pre-existing formal or informal methods of study prioritization in place. Specifically, it does not remove cases from a reading queue and operates in parallel to the standard of care. This device is not intended to replace the usual methods of communication and transfer of information in the current standard of care.
