How Aidoc’s AI Helps Clinicians Find Brain Aneurysms and Coordinate Long-Term Care

Clinicians typically look for aneurysms if there’s clinical suspicion, such as severe headache or ongoing persistent dizziness. However, most unruptured brain aneurysms are often discovered incidentally. Manual review of every scan for every possible condition can be overwhelming, increasing the risk of identification and diagnosis being delayed during the standard of care review process.

That’s where clinical AI can make a life-changing difference. Aidoc’s neurovascular AI solutions flag suspected findings regardless of patient symptom presentation or imaging protocol, enabling more opportunities for patient follow-up or faster intervention and improved patient outcomes. Here’s how Aidoc’s Brain Aneurysm Solutions work.

Aidoc’s Brain Aneurysm Algorithm

All of Aidoc’s algorithms run on the proprietary aiOS™ platform. Using intelligent orchestration, the single, unified platform automatically analyzes the anatomy and context of each scan to apply the right AI algorithms in real-time.

For example, on CT-based head and neck studies, the aiOS™ will automatically route studies to run these image-based AI algorithms*:

  • Intracranial hemorrhage
  • C-Spine fracture
  • Vessel occlusion
  • Aortic dissection
  • CT perfusion
  • Brain aneurysm

If a brain aneurysm is flagged, the radiologist receives a triage alert. Then, clinicians can view the images, confirm findings and share the clinical information with relevant care teams. For sub-acute cases, patients are routed to the Patient Management dashboard.

Longitudinal Monitoring and Patient Follow-Up

Beyond image-based triage, the Aidoc Patient Management dashboard leverages text-based AI to review radiology reports and identify confirmed aneurysms. Because brain aneurysms aren’t always acute, patients with sub-acute findings are automatically captured in a dedicated follow-up dashboard. This helps ensure unruptured brain aneurysms receive long-term monitoring and follow-up by appropriate care teams. From the dashboard, teams can:

  • Communicate with other providers
  • Track communications to patients
  • Review clinical information, including integrated EHR data and radiologist reports
  • Schedule follow-up appointments
  • Move patients along the care path to reduce patient leakage
