Technology
Serverless, HIPAA-compliant infrastructure purpose-built for medical imaging AI.
Prostate MRI AI
End-to-end automated biparametric MRI analysis. From study upload to structured report, every step of the prostate MRI workflow is streamlined.
Automated Series Selection
Configure your institution's series naming conventions once, and the platform remembers. T2-weighted, ADC, and high b-value DWI series are automatically identified and populated from any scanner vendor — eliminating manual series selection on every case.
Automated Image Alignment
All biparametric series (T2, ADC, high b-value) are automatically registered into the same voxel space using affine alignment. Scroll through any slice and all three sequences stay perfectly synchronized — enabling direct visual comparison of signal characteristics across modalities.
AI Segmentation & Lesion Detection
State-of-the-art deep learning models automatically segment the whole prostate boundary and transition zone, then identify candidate lesions. Contours are delivered as standard DICOM RTSTRUCT objects that can be edited directly in the viewer or exported to external systems.
Automated Windowing
Window and level settings are automatically optimized based on published guidelines for biparametric prostate MRI. Each sequence type receives appropriate windowing for lesion visualization without manual adjustment.
PSA Density Risk Assessment
Prostate volume derived from AI segmentation is combined with the patient's PSA value to calculate PSA density. A CHAID decision tree model — validated on 992 patients — estimates the probability of clinically significant cancer (Gleason 7+), with risk category and evidence-based interpretation.
Automated Report Generation
A structured radiology report is generated automatically, including patient demographics, technique description extracted from DICOM headers, findings with lesion characterization, PSA density risk assessment, and overall impression. Reports follow standard biparametric MRI reporting templates.
Navigo Fusion Biopsy Integration
AI segmentation contours and lesion targets can be exported directly to the Philips Navigo MRI/ultrasound fusion biopsy platform. One-click export from the viewer generates compatible output files, eliminating the manual re-contouring step that typically precedes targeted biopsy.
Upcoming
New AI capabilities currently in development on the Acurix platform.
PET/CT Viewer
Native PET/CT viewing with true fusion display, SUV measurement, and Maximum Intensity Projection (MIP). Standard PACS systems often struggle to display PET scans natively — rendering them as static screenshots rather than interactive volumes, with no ability to measure SUV uptake, adjust colormap thresholds, or scroll through fused PET/CT slices.
Acurix renders PET and CT volumes as fully interactive overlays with adjustable fusion opacity, multiple PET colormaps, and real-time SUV quantification at any point in the volume. MIP projections provide a whole-body overview for rapid lesion localization — all from a standard web browser with no specialized workstation required.
Focal Therapy Planning
NanoKnife IRE (irreversible electroporation) treatment planning directly within the imaging viewer. Using the AI-generated prostate boundary and lesion segmentation as inputs, the system computes optimal probe placement to maximize lesion coverage with a safety margin.
Five probes are placed across four treatment phases, generating 10 treatment zones. Coverage fraction is computed in real time. Probes can be manually adjusted with zones recomputing automatically. The final plan is saved as a multi-slice DICOM RTSTRUCT for integration with treatment delivery systems.
Platform Capabilities
Cloud PACS
Integrated DCM4CHEE PACS with OHIF web viewer. Studies accessible from any browser without local DICOM software.
Multi-Site Ingestion
Connect existing PACS via DIMSE, SFTP, HTTP push, or C-MOVE pull. No changes to existing infrastructure required.
GPU Processing
AWS Batch with on-demand GPU instances. Models run on the latest NVIDIA hardware without any capital expenditure.
Multi-Tenant Isolation
Each organization gets cryptographically isolated data. Patient IDs are prefixed, S3 paths are segmented, and queries are filtered per tenant.
DICOM Standards
All results delivered as standard DICOM objects: RTSTRUCT for segmentations, DICOM SR for structured reports, standard series for aligned images.
Rapid Model Onboarding
Any containerized AI model can be deployed on the platform. Shared infrastructure for storage, compute, viewer integration, and HIPAA compliance.
HIPAA Compliance
Security and compliance are built into every layer, not bolted on afterward.
Encryption at Rest
AES-256 encryption for all stored data: S3, RDS, EFS. AWS KMS managed keys.
Encryption in Transit
TLS 1.2+ enforced across all connections. HSTS headers on all endpoints.
Audit Logging
Every PHI access event is logged to CloudWatch with 7-year retention. Full request tracing via AWS X-Ray.
