See-Mode Augmented Reporting Tool, Thyroid (SMART-T) is a stand-alone reporting software to assist trained medical professionals in analyzing thyroid ultrasound images of adult (>=22 years old) patients who have been referred for an ultrasound examination.

Output of the device includes regions of interest (ROIs) placed on the thyroid ultrasound images assisting healthcare professionals to localize nodules in thyroid studies. The device also outputs ultrasonographic lexicon-based descriptors based on ACR TI-RADS. The software generates a report based on the image analysis results to be reviewed and approved by a qualified clinician after performing quality control.

SMART-T may also be used as a structured reporting software for further ultrasound studies. The software includes tools for reading measurements and annotations from the images that can be used for generating a structured report.

Patient management decisions should not be made solely on the basis of analysis by See-Mode Augmented Reporting Tool, Thyroid.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
