Arterys is now offering artificial intelligence (AI)-powered software developed by Avicenna for flagging patients with neurovascular emergencies on CT on its cloud-based imaging platform.
Avicenna's Cina Head software was developed for use as an aid for radiologists in detecting large vessel occlusions and intracranial hemorrhages on CT angiography studies and directing patient management accordingly. Arterys said it has integrated the Avicenna algorithms into its own Mica platform and will make them available to its installed base in the coming weeks.
Along with other AI products, Avicenna's Cina head software now qualifies for reimbursement of up to $1,040 through the U.S. Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services new technology add-on payment program. In a statement, Arterys said the reimbursement policy signals the readiness of AI to transform clinical practice.
