Premarket evidence — what FDA accepted
source quote (p.3)
“CINA-iPE is a radiological computer-aided triage and notification software indicated for use in patients undergoing contrast-enhanced CT scans (not dedicated CTPA protocol) for other clinical indications than pulmonary embolism suspicion, including at least a part of the lung.”
source quote (p.3)
“CINA-IPE uses an artificial intelligence algorithm to analyze images and highlight cases with detected incidental PE on a standalone application in parallel to the ongoing standard of care image interpretation.”

“Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).”
Validation studies (1)
Retrospective clinical
n=381 cases
endpoints: evaluate the software's performance in identifying incidental pulmonary embolisms (iPE)

“As a primary endpoint, the global Sensitivity and Specificity were found to be 87.8% [95%CI: 82.2% - 92.2%] and 92.0% [95%CI: 87.3% - 95.4%], respectively.”

Postmarket — what happened after clearance
Recall and MAUDE counts are product-code-level (reports aren't reliably attributable to one device). Signals are descriptive observables with sources — never a judgment that the device is unsafe or drifting. Snapshot 2026-07-08.
Reimbursement — how devices like this got paid
Not yet tracked — no payment pathway indexed for this clearance (the reimbursement corpus is a growing seed set).
