## Indications for use
Arterys Cardio DL consists of software that analyzes DICOM-compliant cardiovascular images acquired from magnetic resonance (MR) scanners. Arterys Cardio DL specifically analyzes the blood flow to the heart and its major vessels using multi-slice, multi-phase and velocity encoded MR images. It provides clinically-relevant and reproducible, quantitative data, and it has been tested and validated on MR images acquired from both 1.5T and 3.0 T MR Scanners. The data produced by Arterys Cardio DL is intended to be used to support qualified cardiologist, radiologist, or other licensed professional healthcare practitioners for clinical decision-making. It is a support tool that provides relevant clinical data as a resource to the clinician and is not intended to be a source of medical advice or to determine or recommend a course of action or treatment for a patient.
