Contour ProtégéAI is used by trained medical professionals as a tool to aid in the automated processing of digital medical images of modalities CT and MR, as supported by ACR/NEMA DICOM 3.0. Contour ProtégéAI assists in the following indications:
The creation of contours using machine-learning algorithms for applications including, but not limited to, quantitative analysis, aiding adaptive therapy, transferring contours to radiation therapy treatment planning systems, and archiving contours for patient follow-up and management.
Segmenting normal structures across a variety of CT anatomical locations.
And segmenting normal structures of the prostate, seminal vesicles, and urethra within T2-weighted MR images.
Contour ProtégéAI must be used in conjunction with MIM software to review and, if necessary, edit contours that were automatically generated by Contour ProtégéAI.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
