What FDA cleared it for
The Indications for Use statement, verbatim, from the decision document.
Automatic Anatomy Recognition (AAR) is a software-only medical device intended for use by technicians and trained physicians to derive contours of anatomical structures from computed tomography studies for input to a radiation treatment planning system. It is only intended to work for anatomical structures in the head & neck and thoracic body regions. It is not for use on patients below 18 years of age and it relies on third party treatment planning systems to display and edit the contours.
The product code's definition, from FDA's classification record. To provide semi-automatic or fully-automated radiological image processing and analysis tools for radiation therapy. Software implementing artificial intelligence (AI) including nonadaptive machine learning algorithms trained with clinical and/or artificial radiological images. In these devices, the algorithm training images typically impact device performance. AI based radiological image processing software is intended to be used in the workflow of radiation therapy. Adaptive AI algorithms are not within the scope of this product code. Primary radiation dose calculation or plan optimization for treatment planning are not within scope of this product code.

A device's authorized use is a sentence the record can be read against. What Apodicta does on a medical record is that reading: every line of a note, a claim or a report proved to its source or held, before it renders.
