Its identification on head computed tomography (CT) by an artificial intelligence (AI) model could facilitate sooner life-saving interventions, although there are common co-occurring findings including intracranial hemorrhage that can confound this interpretation. This study assessed the accuracy of an AI model (Annalise Enterprise CTB) at identifying obstructive hydrocephalus including in the presence or absence of other findings. Methods This retrospective cohort included 177 thin (≤ 1.5mm) series and 194 thick (> 1.5 and ≤ 5mm) series from 200 non-contrast head CT cases. These cases were obtained from patients aged ≥ 18 years at 5 hospitals in the United States. Each case was interpreted independently by up to three neuroradiologists. Each series was then interpreted by the AI model. Results The AI model performed with area under the curve 0.988 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.971 to 0.998) on thin series and 0.986 (95% CI: 0.969 to 0.997) on thick series. These results were broadly maintained in subgroups for the presence or absence of intracranial hemorrhage, parenchymal abnormality and ventricular drain, and across demographic and scanner manufacturer subgroups. Conclusions The AI model accurately identified obstructive hydrocephalus in this dataset. Its performance in subgroup analyses reflected its robustness.

Common causes include intracranial hemorrhage, especially subarachnoid hemorrhage and intraventricular hemorrhage, and masses, particularly intraventricular, cerebellar or pineal tumors. 2 Its presence may necessitate the emergent placement of a ventricular drain to reduce intracranial pressure in addition to the management of the underlying cause. Artificial intelligence (AI) has already been applied to many emergent neuroradiologic findings especially large vessel occlusion and intracranial hemorrhage identification. 3 Its key application has been to triage suspected abnormal radiology cases so that they can be interpreted sooner by radiologists and other clinicians, and so that time-critical interventions can commence. 4 Such software-as-medical-devices are often referred to as computer assisted triage devices (CADt). It has been proposed that AI could similarly be used to identify obstructive hydrocephalus on head CT and this study assessed the performance of an AI model by comparing its outputs to consensus neuroradiologist interpretations. The model was provided separately with thin (≤ 1.5mm) and thick (> 1.5 and ≤ 5mm) axial series from each case so that the performance on different slice thicknesses could be calculated. Its performance was also evaluated across multiple subgroups to assess its robustness including in the presence or absence of common co-occurring findings. Methods Study design This retrospective standalone model performance study was conducted using radiology cases from five hospitals within the Mass General Brigham (MGB) network between 2016 and 2022 using similar methods to previously published studies about intracranial hemorrhage, mass effect and vasogenic edema identification. 5,6 It was approved by the MGB Institutional Review Board with waiver of informed consent. It was conducted in accordance with relevant guidelines and regulations including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). This manuscript follows the Standards for Reporting Diagnostic Accuracy (STARD 2015) reporting guideline. Case selection The cohort was selected in a consecutive manner based on review of original radiology reports. The cohort size for each of the positive and negative cases was based on powering calculations as described in the statistical analysis section below. The positive cases were identified through a natural language processing search engine (Nuance mPower Clinical Analytics) followed by manual report review by an American Board of Radiology (ABR)-certified neuroradiologist. The negative cases were identified by taking the next negative case acquired on the same CT scanner after each positive case to avoid temporal and technical bias. The cohort considered all CT head cases performed at a hospital including inpatient and outpatient settings; there were no limitations on the original CT head clinical indication. The CT head cases were obtained from patients at least 18 years of age. The CT head cases were taken from unique patients; only the first CT head from a given patient was included. All cases were deidentified and underwent an image quality review by an ABR-certified neuroradiologist. The relevant series for the model interpretations were selected at the same time as described under the series selection section below. The review was performed using the FDA-cleared eUnity image visualization software (Version 6 or higher) and an internal web-based annotation system that utilized the REDCap electronic data capture tools hosted at MGB. 7,8 Series selection The model was provided with a single selected series at the time of model inference. These series were non-contrast thin (≤ 1.5mm) and thick (> 1.5 and ≤ 5mm) axial series for each CT head case. The series were selected such that the thin series was the thinnest available series ≤ 1.5mm; the thick series was randomized between the thinnest and thickest available series > 1.5 and ≤ 5mm to ensure representation of slice thicknesses across the entire range. After series selection, a DICOM metadata review was additionally performed to ensure that the slice thickness was within the appropriate range and that there was a consistent slice interval (with tolerance of ± 0.2mm). Ground truth interpretations Ground truth interpretations were performed by up to three ABR-certified neuroradiologists. They answered whether obstructive hydrocephalus was “Present” or “Absent”. The definition of obstructive hydrocephalus was “Enlargement of one of more ventricles due to obstruction”. They provided their interpretations independently, without access to the original radiology reports and in different worklist orders. They used the same image visualization software and annotation system as was used in the image quality review. They had access to the entire CT head case (i.e., were not restricted to the series selected for model inference). For determining consensus interpretations, a “2 + 1” strategy was used: the first two neuroradiologists interpreted every case and a third neuroradiologist then interpreted cases with discrepant interpretations. The first two neuroradiologists also identified the presence of the co-existing findings or abnormalities of intracranial hemorrhage; parenchymal abnormality including ischemia, mass, cyst, encephalomalacia; and ventricular drain including extraventricular drain, ventriculoperitoneal shunt. These findings were considered present for a case if either of the neuroradiologists interpreted them as being present. Model inference The evaluated AI model was version 3.1.0 of the Annalise Enterprise CTB Triage Trauma device. It is the same AI model used by the Annalise Enterprise (CTB module) device, which is commercially available in some non-US markets and whose development has been previously described. 9 In brief, it consists of an ensemble of five neural networks with three heads: one for classification, one for left-right localization and one for segmentation. It can identify 130 different radiological findings and was trained on over 200,000 CT head cases, which were each labelled by at least three radiologists. The Annalise Enterprise CTB Triage Trauma device only provides binary classification outputs about the identification of findings, which is consistent with US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations for CADt devices. The model was installed at MGB for use in this study and received only the DICOM-formatted CT head cases. It outputted a classification score between 0 and 1 for obstructive hydrocephalus. A binary output could be derived using a prespecified default operating point (0.185900). Statistical analysis The statistical analysis was performed in R (version 4.0.2) on the full analysis set. The predefined endpoints included the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for the identification of obstructive hydrocephalus for each of thin and thick series. The AUCs were calculated using the consensus annotations and the classification scores from the AI model. The predefined endpoints also included the sensitivity and specificity at the operating point. They were calculated by comparing the binary model output at the operating point with the consensus annotations (i.e., by calculating the number of true positive, false negative, true negative and false positive cases). The AUCs, sensitivities and specificities were calculated as exploratory analyses for the subgroups of sex, age groups, ethnicity, race and CT scanner manufacturer. They were also calculated as exploratory analyses for subgroups based on the presence or absence of the co-existing findings or abnormalities. The positive predictive values (PPVs) and negative predictive values (NPVs) were calculated as exploratory analyses at different levels of assumed prevalence. The demographic parameters and scanner manufacturer were derived from clinical databases or DICOM fields for each radiology case; any missing data were treated as “Unavailable” and no data were imputed. All CIs were calculated using bootstrapped intervals with 2,000 resamples. The sample size was powered based on preliminary model results at a balanced operating point to ensure the lower bound of the 95% CI for sensitivity was > 80% and for specificity was > 80%. Results The cohort of CT head cases included 181 thin series and 200 thick series (Fig. 1 ). The model successfully performed inference on 177 (97.8%) thin series and 194 (97.0%) thick series. The final analysis set of thin series cases included 77 (43.5%) positive cases and 100 (56.5%) negative cases; there were 98 (55.4%) women and 79 (44.6%) men; the mean (± SD) age was 60.8 (± 18.8) years (Table 1 ). The final analysis set of thick series cases included 87 (44.8%) positive cases and 107 (55.2%) negative cases; there were 106 (54.6%) women and 88 (45.4%) men; the mean (± SD) age was 61.0 (± 18.8) years.

These results corresponded to a sensitivity of 93.5% (95% CI: 88.3 to 98.7%) and specificity of 95.0% (95% CI: 90.0 to 99.0%) on thin series, and a sensitivity of 93.1% (95% CI: 87.4 to 97.7%) and specificity of 95.3% (95% CI: 90.7 to 99.1%) on thick series. All demographic and scanner manufacturer subgroups had an AUC of at least 0.95 for both thin series (Supplementary Table 1) and thick series (Supplementary Table 2). The sensitivities and specificities of subgroups were at least 80% whenever there were at least 5 positive or negative cases respectively for the subgroup. Table 2 Model performance summary.

For an assumed prevalence of 0.10, the PPV was 67.5% (95% CI: 51.6 to 91.3%) and the NPV was 99.2% (95% CI: 98.6 to 99.8%) on thin series, and the PPV was 68.9% (95% CI: 53.1 to 91.4%) and the NPV was 99.2% (95% CI: 98.5 to 99.7%) on thick series.

The age subgroups were therefore separated further into 18 to 49 years, 50 to 64 years, 65 to 79 years and ≥ 80 years (Table 4 ). The model did not appear to be impacted by age-related atrophy, with the model correctly interpreting all cases from patients aged ≥ 80 years. The model did show decreased sensitivities for the 50–64 years age group for both the thin and thick series (82.4% (95% CI: 64.7 to 100.0%) and 84.2% (95% CI: 68.4 to 100.0%) respectively); in both situations, the decrease in these sensitivities reflected only 3 false negative cases.

Intracranial hemorrhage is one of many causes of obstructive hydrocephalus; the model achieved sensitivity of at least 88.5% both in its presence and absence, suggesting the model identified obstructive hydrocephalus regardless of whether the cause was intracranial hemorrhage. A parenchymal abnormality was present on almost all positive cases and the subgroup analysis was most relevant in ensuring that the model did not produce false positive interpretations when one was present; the model maintained a specificity of at least 90.0% both in the presence and absence of a parenchymal abnormality. A ventricular drain is a treatment for obstructive hydrocephalus and a hypothetic non-specific model could learn to identify it rather than obstructive hydrocephalus during training; this model demonstrated sensitivity of at least 82.4% when it was present and at least 95.2% when it was absent.

The model achieved an AUC of 0.988 on thin series and 0.986 on thick series, and sensitivities and specificities of at least 93.1% at the pre-defined operating point for both series. These results were mostly maintained across demographic subgroups including sex, age, ethnicity and race, and scanner manufacturer subgroups. These results were also consistent with the expected performance of CADt devices through the US FDA and this model has subsequently received 510(k) clearance through the US FDA as the first CADt device that identifies obstructive hydrocephalus. 10 A key consideration with radiologic AI models is ensuring that they are identifying the intended finding and not a mimic or co-occurring finding. While hopefully the radiology and data science communities are more aware of this potential pitfall now, previous studies have shown that AI models may learn incorrect “shortcuts” for the detection of findings including non-imaging features like radiologist annotations on abnormal cases. 11,12 Obstructive hydrocephalus is a finding that has many mimics and common co-occurring findings. Here we showed that the model performance was not impacted in older age subgroups, suggesting age-related atrophy was not leading to false positive case identification. We similarly showed that the model identified obstructive hydrocephalus regardless of the presence or absence of the co-occurring findings of intracranial hemorrhage, parenchymal abnormality and ventricular drain. Intracranial hemorrhage is a common cause of obstructive hydrocephalus; we considered the maintenance of sensitivity in the presence or absence of intracranial hemorrhage to show that the model could identify obstructive hydrocephalus from both hemorrhagic and non-hemorrhagic causes. A parenchymal abnormality can likewise reflect a cause of obstructive hydrocephalus; however, almost all cases that were positive for obstructive hydrocephalus had a parenchymal abnormality, which limited the conclusions from this subgroup analysis. At the same time, there were many cases with a parenchymal abnormality that were negative for obstructive hydrocephalus; we considered the maintenance of a specificity of 90% among these cases to suggest that the model was identifying obstructive hydrocephalus rather than an underlying parenchymal abnormality causing obstructive hydrocephalus. The model performed similarly in the presence or absence of a ventricular drain; we were reassured that it identified obstructive hydrocephalus in the absence of a ventricular drain especially as this clinical scenario is more likely to reflect patients who have not yet received treatment for obstructive hydrocephalus. A takeaway of having a robust model is that it could play a key role in the clinical environment. CADt devices aim to aid in the prioritization and triage of cases with suspected time sensitive findings with an ultimate goal of enabling management to commence sooner. 13 Obstructive hydrocephalus is a critical finding with management steps including the possible placement of a ventricular drain. This model therefore has the potential to positively impact patient care and it will be important to formally evaluate its effectiveness moving forward. The main limitation of this study is that it was a retrospective study outside of the clinical workflow. The effectiveness of the model will ultimately be best assessed in a prospective manner within the clinical environment. An initial assessment could consider key metrics before and after the implementation of this model. From a radiologic endpoint perspective, these metrics could include changes in the time to interpretation and time to notification of the responding clinician for cases with obstructive hydrocephalus. From a broader clinical endpoint perspective, these metrics could consider time to intervention for patients with obstructive hydrocephalus, percentage of patients who receive an intervention, and morbidity or mortality rates. Conclusion This diagnostic study assessed an AI model that accurately detected obstructive hydrocephalus. It maintained this performance across many subgroup analyses suggesting its robustness.

The series were selected such that the thin series was the thinnest available series\u0026thinsp;\u0026le;\u0026thinsp;1.5mm; the thick series was randomized between the thinnest and thickest available series\u0026thinsp;\u0026gt;\u0026thinsp;1.5 and \u0026le;\u0026thinsp;5mm to ensure representation of slice thicknesses across the entire range. After series selection, a DICOM metadata review was additionally performed to ensure that the slice thickness was within the appropriate range and that there was a consistent slice interval (with tolerance of \u0026plusmn;\u0026thinsp;0.2mm).\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGround truth interpretations\u003c/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGround truth interpretations were performed by up to three ABR-certified neuroradiologists. They answered whether obstructive hydrocephalus was \u0026ldquo;Present\u0026rdquo; or \u0026ldquo;Absent\u0026rdquo;. The definition of obstructive hydrocephalus was \u0026ldquo;Enlargement of one of more ventricles due to obstruction\u0026rdquo;. They provided their interpretations independently, without access to the original radiology reports and in different worklist orders. They used the same image visualization software and annotation system as was used in the image quality review. They had access to the entire CT head case (i.e., were not restricted to the series selected for model inference). For determining consensus interpretations, a \u0026ldquo;2\u0026thinsp;+\u0026thinsp;1\u0026rdquo; strategy was used: the first two neuroradiologists interpreted every case and a third neuroradiologist then interpreted cases with discrepant interpretations.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe first two neuroradiologists also identified the presence of the co-existing findings or abnormalities of intracranial hemorrhage; parenchymal abnormality including ischemia, mass, cyst, encephalomalacia; and ventricular drain including extraventricular drain, ventriculoperitoneal shunt. These findings were considered present for a case if either of the neuroradiologists interpreted them as being present.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eModel inference\u003c/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe evaluated AI model was version 3.1.0 of the Annalise Enterprise CTB Triage Trauma device.

It can identify 130 different radiological findings and was trained on over 200,000 CT head cases, which were each labelled by at least three radiologists.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Annalise Enterprise CTB Triage Trauma device only provides binary classification outputs about the identification of findings, which is consistent with US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulations for CADt devices. The model was installed at MGB for use in this study and received only the DICOM-formatted CT head cases. It outputted a classification score between 0 and 1 for obstructive hydrocephalus. A binary output could be derived using a prespecified default operating point (0.185900).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cdiv id=\"Sec8\" class=\"Section2\"\u003e \u003ch2\u003eStatistical analysis\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe statistical analysis was performed in R (version 4.0.2) on the full analysis set. The predefined endpoints included the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for the identification of obstructive hydrocephalus for each of thin and thick series. The AUCs were calculated using the consensus annotations and the classification scores from the AI model. The predefined endpoints also included the sensitivity and specificity at the operating point. They were calculated by comparing the binary model output at the operating point with the consensus annotations (i.e., by calculating the number of true positive, false negative, true negative and false positive cases).\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe AUCs, sensitivities and specificities were calculated as exploratory analyses for the subgroups of sex, age groups, ethnicity, race and CT scanner manufacturer. They were also calculated as exploratory analyses for subgroups based on the presence or absence of the co-existing findings or abnormalities. The positive predictive values (PPVs) and negative predictive values (NPVs) were calculated as exploratory analyses at different levels of assumed prevalence. The demographic parameters and scanner manufacturer were derived from clinical databases or DICOM fields for each radiology case; any missing data were treated as \u0026ldquo;Unavailable\u0026rdquo; and no data were imputed.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAll CIs were calculated using bootstrapped intervals with 2,000 resamples.

rather than these co-occurring findings (Table\u0026nbsp;\u003cspan refid=\"Tab5\" class=\"InternalRef\"\u003e5\u003c/span\u003e). Intracranial hemorrhage is one of many causes of obstructive hydrocephalus; the model achieved sensitivity of at least 88.5% both in its presence and absence, suggesting the model identified obstructive hydrocephalus regardless of whether the cause was intracranial hemorrhage. A parenchymal abnormality was present on almost all positive cases and the subgroup analysis was most relevant in ensuring that the model did not produce false positive interpretations when one was present; the model maintained a specificity of at least 90.0% both in the presence and absence of a parenchymal abnormality. A ventricular drain is a treatment for obstructive hydrocephalus and a hypothetic non-specific model could learn to identify it rather than obstructive hydrocephalus during training; this model demonstrated sensitivity of at least 82.4% when it was present and at least 95.2% when it was absent.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003cdiv class=\"gridtable\"\u003e\u003ctable float=\"Yes\"

The model achieved an AUC of 0.988 on thin series and 0.986 on thick series, and sensitivities and specificities of at least 93.1% at the pre-defined operating point for both series. These results were mostly maintained across demographic subgroups including sex, age, ethnicity and race, and scanner manufacturer subgroups. These results were also consistent with the expected performance of CADt devices through the US FDA and this model has subsequently received 510(k) clearance through the US FDA as the first CADt device that identifies obstructive hydrocephalus.\u003csup\u003e10\u003c/sup\u003e\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA key consideration with radiologic AI models is ensuring that they are identifying the intended finding and not a mimic or co-occurring finding. While hopefully the radiology and data science communities are more aware of this potential pitfall now, previous studies have shown that AI models may learn incorrect \u0026ldquo;shortcuts\u0026rdquo; for the detection of findings including non-imaging features like radiologist annotations on abnormal cases.\u003csup\u003e11,12\u003c/sup\u003e Obstructive hydrocephalus is a finding that has many mimics and common co-occurring findings. Here we showed that the model performance was not impacted in older age subgroups, suggesting age-related atrophy was not leading to false positive case identification.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWe similarly showed that the model identified obstructive hydrocephalus regardless of the presence or absence of the co-occurring findings of intracranial hemorrhage, parenchymal abnormality and ventricular drain. Intracranial hemorrhage is a common cause of obstructive hydrocephalus; we considered the maintenance of sensitivity in the presence or absence of intracranial hemorrhage to show that the model could identify obstructive hydrocephalus from both hemorrhagic and non-hemorrhagic causes. A parenchymal abnormality can likewise reflect a cause of obstructive hydrocephalus; however, almost all cases that were positive for obstructive hydrocephalus had a parenchymal abnormality, which limited the conclusions from this subgroup analysis. At the same time, there were many cases with a parenchymal abnormality that were negative for obstructive hydrocephalus; we considered the maintenance of a specificity of 90% among these cases to suggest that the model was identifying obstructive hydrocephalus rather than an underlying parenchymal abnormality causing obstructive hydrocephalus. The model performed similarly in the presence or absence of a ventricular drain; we were reassured that it identified obstructive hydrocephalus in the absence of a ventricular drain especially as this clinical scenario is more likely to reflect patients who have not yet received treatment for obstructive hydrocephalus.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eA takeaway of having a robust model is that it could play a key role in the clinical environment. CADt devices aim to aid in the prioritization and triage of cases with suspected time sensitive findings with an ultimate goal of enabling management to commence sooner.\u003csup\u003e13\u003c/sup\u003e Obstructive hydrocephalus is a critical finding with management steps including the possible placement of a ventricular drain. This model therefore has the potential to positively impact patient care and it will be important to formally evaluate its effectiveness moving forward.\u003c/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe main limitation of this study is that it was a retrospective study outside of the clinical workflow. The effectiveness of the model will ultimately be best assessed in a prospective manner within the clinical environment. An initial assessment could consider key metrics before and after the implementation of this model. From a radiologic endpoint perspective, these metrics could include changes in the time to interpretation and time to notification of the responding clinician for cases with obstructive hydrocephalus. From a broader clinical endpoint perspective, these metrics could consider time to intervention for patients with obstructive hydrocephalus, percentage of patients who receive an intervention, and morbidity or mortality rates.\u003c/p\u003e"},{"header":"Conclusion","content":"\u003cp\u003eThis diagnostic study assessed an AI model that accurately detected obstructive hydrocephalus.

Its identification on head computed tomography (CT) by an artificial intelligence (AI) model could facilitate sooner life-saving interventions, although there are common co-occurring findings including intracranial hemorrhage that can confound this interpretation. This study assessed the accuracy of an AI model (Annalise Enterprise CTB) at identifying obstructive hydrocephalus including in the presence or absence of other findings.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eMethods\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis retrospective cohort included 177 thin (\u0026le;\u0026thinsp;1.5mm) series and 194 thick (\u0026gt;\u0026thinsp;1.5 and \u0026le;\u0026thinsp;5mm) series from 200 non-contrast head CT cases. These cases were obtained from patients aged\u0026thinsp;\u0026ge;\u0026thinsp;18 years at 5 hospitals in the United States. Each case was interpreted independently by up to three neuroradiologists. Each series was then interpreted by the AI model.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eResults\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe AI model performed with area under the curve 0.988 (95% confidence interval (CI): 0.971 to 0.998) on thin series and 0.986 (95% CI: 0.969 to 0.997) on thick series. These results were broadly maintained in subgroups for the presence or absence of intracranial hemorrhage, parenchymal abnormality and ventricular drain, and across demographic and scanner manufacturer subgroups.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eConclusions\u003c/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe AI model accurately identified obstructive hydrocephalus in this dataset.
