Aidoc Receives FDA’s 510(k) Clearance for Pneumothorax X-ray Software

Aidoc has received the FDA’s 510(k) clearance for its artificial intelligence (AI) software that provides triage and notification of pneumothorax on X-rays.

The software, which runs on all X-ray machines including portable equipment, automatically flags positive cases of pneumothorax, helping physicians to prevent the patient’s condition from leading to respiratory or cardiac failure.

The company has also received FDA clearance for seven other software products that can flag and communicate suspected pathologies in computed tomography (CT) exams.
