Carebot AI CXR

Carebot

Carebot AI CXR is a deep learning-based decision support software that assists radiologists in interpreting chest X-ray images in AP/PA projection. It serves as a secondary reader of seven key radiological findings, including atelectasis, consolidation, cardiomegaly, pleural effusion, pulmonary lesions, pneumothorax, and subcutaneous emphysema.

Deep learning algorithms within the Carebot AI CXR detect and localize areas of interest and provide a simplified text report of the analysis result by individual finding. The software is designed to be used in combination with PACS and DICOM viewers.

Intended Use Statements
Intended use (according to CE)	Carebot AI CXR is a medical device that employs artificial intelligence, specifically machine learning and computer vision algorithms, to detect abnormalities in chest X-ray images. The software is used as a second reading system for image documentation in standard clinical practice. Carebot AI CXR is a decision support system (classification 'prediction, software that is intended to provide information for decision-making for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes') based on computer-aided detection. The software is intended for use only by trained personnel with the required competence. Image evaluation may only be performed on certified radiology monitors and in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations. The final diagnosis and possible treatment are always determined by the physician.
