uAI-Discover-Chest CT Pneumonia Analysis

United Imaging Intelligence
The CT Pneumonia Analysis application is intended to detect and analyze lesions that are highly correlated with pneumonia infections in chest CT images of adult patients. It provides quantitative analysis of pneumonia-related lesions, e.g., volumes and distributions of the lesions. The application also provides tools to simultaneously display follow-up chest CT images and provide comparisons to assess the evolution of the lesions across multiple time points.

Intended Use Statements
Intended use (according to CE) The CT Pneumonia Analysis application is intended to detect and analyze lesions that are highly correlated with pneumonia infections in chest CT images of adult patients. It provides quantitative analysis of pneumonia-related lesions, e.g., volumes and distributions of the lesions. The application also provides tools to simultaneously display follow-up chest CT images and provide comparisons to assess the evolution of the lesions across multiple time points. This application only detects and analyzes lesions that are highly correlated with pneumonia infection. It shall not be used to diagnose if the patient has pneumonia or which type of pneumonia the patient has.
