FDA has cleared a Viz.ai 510(k) for its Viz AAA, an artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm intended to detect suspected abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). The device uses AI to automatically search for the presence of an abdominal aortic aneurysm from computed tomography angiography from any scanner in a hospital network, the company says. The algorithm and clinical workflow solution will be a part of the Viz AORTIC Module, an AI-supported device designed to accelerate treatment decisions for all aortic pathology, it adds.

An abdominal aortic aneurysm is a bulge in the abdominal aorta, and if left undetected and untreated, it can lead to a rupture, which is often fatal, the company says. The CDC estimates that an AAA is responsible for more than 9,000 deaths each year in the U.S.
