## Indications for use
AI-Rad Companion (Cardiovascular) is image processing software that provides quantitative and qualitative analysis from previously acquired Computed Tomography DICOM images to support radiologists and physicians from emergency medicine, specialty care, urgent care, and general practice in the evaluation and assessment of cardiovascular diseases. It provides the following functionality: • Segmentation and volume measurement of the heart • Quantification of the total calcium volume in the coronary arteries • Segmentation of the aorta • Measurement of maximum diameters of the aorta at typical landmarks • Threshold-based highlighting of enlarged diameters The software has been validated for non-cardiac chest CT data with filtered backprojection reconstruction from Siemens Healthineers, GE Healthcare, Philips, and Toshiba/Canon. Additionally, the calcium detection feature has been validated on non-cardiac chest CT data with iterative reconstruction from Siemens Healthineers. Only DICOM images of adult patients are considered to be valid input.
