Premarket evidence — what FDA accepted

Device typesamd
source quote (p.3)
qXR-PTX-PE is a radiological computer-assisted triage and notification software that analyzes adult chest X-ray images for the presence of pre-specified suspected critical findings (pleural effusion and/or pneumothorax). qXR-PTX-PE uses an artificial intelligence algorithm to analyze images for features suggestive of critical findings and provides case-level output available in the PACS/workstation for worklist prioritization or triage. As a passive notification for prioritization-only software tool within standard of care workflow, qXR-PTX-PE does not send a proactive alert directly to the appropriately trained medical specialists. qXR-PTX-PE is not intended to direct attention to specific portions of an image or to anomalies other than pleural effusion and/or pneumothorax. Its results are not intended to be used on a stand-alone basis for clinical decision-making. The qXR-PTX-PE is a software only device, similar to the predicate (Lunit INSIGHT CXR Triage).

    The FDA AI/ML device list shows a newer 510(k) K231805 (decision 2023-12-22) from Qure.ai Technologies for a matching device line ("qXR-LN") — a new clearance for the same line is a change event.

    first seen 2026-07-08 · k_number:K231805

Recall and MAUDE counts are product-code-level (reports aren't reliably attributable to one device); a recall is shown as device-attributed only when the recall record itself lists this clearance number. Signals are descriptive observables with sources — never a judgment that the device is unsafe or drifting. Snapshot 2026-07-08.

Reimbursement — how devices like this got paid

Not yet tracked — no payment pathway indexed for this clearance (the reimbursement corpus is a growing seed set).

Applicable FDA guidance — what the submission is measured against

FDA guidance documents and guiding principles applicable to 510(k) AI/ML devices in the Radiology panel. A curated reference index, not legal or regulatory advice — each item states its own status, and a draft is never binding.

Applicability is derived from the device's FDA advisory panel and pathway — cross-cutting guidances apply to every AI/ML device; panel-specific ones are flagged. Titles, dates, and links verified against fda.gov as of July 2026.
