AI Triage and Notification Software for Radiology

This is the single largest group of cleared AI in American healthcare, and the most commonly misunderstood.

Picture a hospital reading list as a stack of paper in the order it arrived. These products read the stack and move likely emergencies to the top. That is the whole job. A bleed in the brain, a blocked lung artery, a collapsed lung: the software recognizes a pattern and pushes that case up.

Here is the part that surprises people. Under this device type the software is not permitted to tell the radiologist what it thinks it saw. It may only say this one should be looked at sooner. The diagnosis stays entirely with the doctor, who reads the scan the same way they always would.

That limit is deliberate, and it is why so many products land here. Speeding up a queue is a lower risk claim than making a call, so it is an easier door to get through. When a vendor demo shows a confident red box over a bleed, ask which device type that screen was cleared under.
