Device Description
ClariCT.AI, is a software device intended for networking, communication, processing and enhancement of CT images in DICOM format regardless of the manufacturer of CT scanner or model. The original cleared device (K183460) is a software application to denoise on CT images, integrated with the clinical environment through DICOM communication on an on-premise environment, and runs under Microsoft Windows platform. The device consists of Denoise Processing module that denoises CT images and other modules (Window application module) that provide many features such as handling DICOM connection from/to PACS, user interface, worklist management and viewer. The subject device, ClariCT.AI, has added a new module (named Al Marketplace Integration module) to the original cleared device (K183460) to enable installation on the Al Marketplace system. The module integrates the Denoising Processor of original device into the Al Marketplace system and includes an optional multiframe PET-CT module which denoises multiframe PET-CT fusion images included as a series in CT study. ClariCT.AI, consists only of the Al Marketplace Integration Module and the Denoising Processor, can be installed in the Al Marketplace system that integrates centrally with PACS and seamlessly integrates into the existing IT and modality infrastructure. An Al Marketplace system, which can be integrated with the ClariCT.AI, is a cloud-based Al platform service that connects end users (e.g. hospitals, imaging centers) and Al medical imaging applications developed by third parties. These Al Marketplace systems provide many features such as handling DICOM connection from/to PACS, user interface, authentication, worklist control, and orchestrating third party Al applications. With the newly added module, ClariCT.Al will function as a software device integrated with such system, and therefore the responsibility of our software is bound to change so as to take care of only essential functionality such as denoising process and system interface.
