At A Glance

Vendor: Rad AI
Category: Imaging Reporting and Workflow
Where it runs: Dictation and PACS-integrated
Primary user: Radiologists
Regulatory status: Not a regulated device

Note what this is not doing. It does not read the image. The radiologist dictates the findings and the model composes the impression, which is a summarization task on text the radiologist authored. That is why it is not a device, and it is a sharper illustration of the regulatory boundary than any explanation of the boundary itself.

Where It Is Used

Automated impression generation from findings
Follow-up recommendation consistency
Reducing radiologist dictation time

Limitations Worth Knowing

An impression generated from findings inherits any error or omission in those findings and can also over-summarize, dropping a hedge the radiologist deliberately included. The signing radiologist owns the impression regardless of what drafted it.

This tool is not an FDA-cleared medical device. Nothing here is a procurement recommendation, and product capabilities in this category change quickly ... confirm current functionality, data handling, and contractual terms directly with the vendor.
