Annalise.ai, a prominent player in the radiology imaging field on a global scale, has officially introduced a groundbreaking solution named Annalise Triage, tailored specifically for the U.S. market. This innovative software leverages the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to revolutionise the radiology sector. Its primary aim is to empower radiologists by enabling them to efficiently triage medical imaging studies, giving priority to those suspected to have critical findings. Ultimately, this transformation will streamline radiologists' workflow and contribute to faster diagnoses for urgent medical conditions. The use of AI-enhanced worklist triaging has been proven to significantly reduce the time required for a radiologist to review a report and the time it takes for a report to become available in cases of critical conditions.
Annalise Triage is a comprehensive solution that encompasses 12 FDA-cleared findings, comprising 5 for chest X-rays (CXR) and 7 for non-contrast head CT scans (CTB). This versatile tool is readily accessible throughout the United States and has received both the 510(k) clearance and the highly sought-after breakthrough designation for obstructive hydrocephalus. Notably, Annalise Triage stands out as the sole radiology triage device to have earned this prestigious distinction. The breakthrough designation is exclusively granted to devices and products that meet stringent criteria, which include enhancing the diagnosis or treatment of life-threatening or irreversibly debilitating conditions, presenting breakthrough technology, offering a substantial advantage over existing alternatives, and ultimately serving the best interests of patients.
Radiologists who adopt Annalise Triage can quickly and accurately identify a wide range of critical and time-sensitive medical conditions from unenhanced head CT studies. These conditions include acute subdural hematoma, acute subarachnoid haemorrhage, intra-axial haemorrhage, intraventricular haemorrhage, obstructive hydrocephalus, mass effect, and vasogenic edema. Additionally, the software aids in the identification of pleural effusion, pneumoperitoneum, vertebral compression fracture, pneumothorax, and tension pneumothorax in chest X-rays. With a comprehensive list of 12 time-sensitive and critical findings, Annalise Triage establishes itself as the most comprehensive AI triage tool available for chest X-rays and non-contrast head CT scans in the United States.
