Red dot® CTH V1 processes adult non-contrast CT Head at the point of acquisition and, within 5 minutes, provides the following key outputs:
Intracranial Haemorrhage (ICH)
Acute Infarct
High Confidence Normal (HCN)
An AI enabled pathway not only significantly reduces time to treatment but also reduces costs and increases radiological resources
Increase radiological capacity
CTH identified as HCN (normal with a very high degree of confidence) can be autonomously reported, reducing radiology workload and reliance on outsourcing
Reduce time-to-treatment
CTH identified as having acute abnormalities (haemorrhage or acute infarct) are prioritised for hot-reporting and fast-tracked for appropriate treatment
How does our red dot® CT Head solution perform?
High confidence normal
54.3%
of Normal examinations removed with a negative predictive value (NPV) of 0.93 (compared to 0.87 for radiologists)
Intracranial haemorrhage
93.1%
of radiologist false negatives for ICH identified
Acute infarct
69.1%
of radiologist false negatives for acute infarct identified
Our evidence
“Validation of an artificial intelligence solution for acute triage and rule‐out normal of non‐contrast CT head scans” published in Neuroradiology: We demonstrated state-of-the-art performance with AUCs of 0.988, 0.933 and 0.939 for ICH, Acute Infarct and Normal respectively. Red dot® identified 91.3% ICH and 61.9% acute infarcts missed by radiologists, and demonstrated the ability to remove up to 54.3% of Normal examinations with a negative predictive value (NPV) of 0.93 (compared to 0.87 for radiologists).
