CINA-PE

AI-Powered Pulmonary Embolism Detection on Chest CT Angiography

The patient arrived to the ER with acute chest pain and shortness of breath. A dedicated CT pulmonary angiogram (CTPA) has been acquired. the clinical question is open, and the PERT team is standing by. In a standard worklist, The scan waits. CINA-PE moves it to the front, delivering a notification to the radiologist within two minutes of acquisition.

The Worklist Does Not Know the Urgency

A dedicated CTPA for suspected PE is not a routine scan. It is the answer to a clinical question that is already open. The worklist does not sort by urgency.

Massive Pulmonary embolism

When the patient is hemodynamically unstable, the scan result determines whether the PERT team prepares or waits. A suspected PE sitting undifferentiated in a queue is time the clinical team is not acting. CINA-PE flags the case and delivers a notification before it would normally be opened.

STABLE PULMONARY EMBOLISM

Hemodynamically stable does not mean low risk. Clot extension, right heart strain, and deterioration are real consequences of a result that arrives late. With CINA-PE, every suspected positive is flagged immediately, at any hour and at any volume.

Every dedicated chest CT angiography is analyzed automatically. When PE is suspected, the radiologist receives an alert with preview slices showing the suspected location, before the clinical team is kept waiting. No manual trigger. No change to the existing workflow.

Shapiro et al.

Methodist Debakey Cardiovascular Journal

What happens to time-to-consult and in-hospital mortality when suspected PE cases no longer wait in a standard worklist queue? A four-hospital US health system measured the before-and-after following CINA-PE implementation.

Shapiro et al.

Journal of Vascular Surgery

At a high-volume tertiary referral center, researchers tracked whether earlier radiologist notification translated into faster anticoagulation and PERT team mobilization – two decisions that cannot be delayed in acute PE.

Vallée et al.

European Journal of Radiology

Radiology residents are often the first interpreters of after-hours CTPAs, before a senior radiologist reviews the following morning. At Hôpital Foch (France), a reader study evaluated how CINA-PE changes diagnostic performance and inter-reader agreement in that specific scenario.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does CINA-PE detect, and who is it designed for?

CINA-PE is a triage and notification tool for dedicated chest CT angiography in symptomatic adults with suspected pulmonary embolism. It analyzes every CTPA automatically, delivers a notification to the radiologist’s worklist if a suspected PE is identified, and provides a preview of up to five flagged slices. It is not designed for contrast-enhanced CT scans acquired for other clinical reasons.

How does CINA-PE reduce the time between scan and clinical action?

In a standard worklist, a suspected PE case waits behind routine studies while the clinical team waits for a result. CINA-PE delivers a notification within two minutes of scan acquisition, before the case would normally be reached. In the Shapiro et al. study at a four-hospital US health system, time-to-consult dropped from 240 minutes to under 7 minutes following implementation.

What is the difference between CINA-PE and CINA-iPE?

CINA-PE analyzes dedicated CT pulmonary angiography in symptomatic patients referred specifically for suspected PE, using a high-contrast pulmonary timing protocol. CINA-iPE analyzes contrast-enhanced CT scans acquired for entirely different reasons, such as oncology staging or trauma, where PE was not suspected. They are different products, different algorithms, and different clinical workflows.
