Airs Medical vs Optellum Virtual Nodule Clinic

Airs sells MRI reconstruction, and published work has used SwiftMR in postmortem MRI and in 4D MR angiography from TWIST stroke imaging. An imaging center with a long MRI schedule is the customer.

openFDA lists one Optellum 510(k), K202300 from March 2021, with QuantX (De Novo DEN170022) as the predicate. The scoring function (LCP-CNN) is available only to pulmonologists and radiologists, so a lung nodule program wanting incidental nodules tracked and risk-scored on CT is the Optellum buyer. Optellum says it integrates with RapidAI's Rapid Enterprise platform and that SimonMed built LCP AI into its workflow. Its reimbursement page lists CPT Category III codes 0721T and +0722T, effective July 2022, and a Medicare hospital outpatient APC 1508 rate of $650.50 for 2026, a national average before deductibles. That rate is a payment figure and not Optellum's price.
