Intended Use Statements
Intended use (according to CE)	A radiological computer aided triage and notification software indicated for use in the analysis of CT scans that include the cervical spine in adults or transitional adolescents aged 18 and older. The device is intended to assist hospital networks and appropriately trained medical specialists in workflow triage by flagging and communication of linear lucencies in the cervical spine bone in patterns compatible with fractures.
