Summary

The BriefCase-Quantification Abdominal Aortic Measurement solution is a radiological medical image management and processing device. The software consists of a single module based on an algorithm programmed component and is intended to run on a linux-based server in a cloud environment. The BriefCase-Quantification receives filtered DICOM Images, and processes them chronologically by running the algorithm on relevant series to measure the maximum abdominal aortic diameter. Following the AI processing, the output of the algorithm analysis is transferred to an image review software (desktop application), and forwarded to user review in the PACS. BriefCase-Quantification produces a preview image annotated with the maximum diameter measurement. The diameter marking is not intended to be a final output, but serves the purpose of visualization and measurement. The original, unmarked series remains available in the PACS as well. The preview image presents an unofficial measurement which is not final, and the user is instructed to review the full image and any other clinical information before making a clinical decision. The image includes a disclaimer: "Not for diagnostic use. The measurement is unofficial, not final, and must be reviewed by a radiologist." BriefCase-Quantification is not intended to evaluate post-operative aortas
