Clinical evidence

Held to the standard of a clinical instrument.

Verityn is validated against retrospective, de-identified imaging datasets in controlled reader studies. Every model version is paired with its evaluation report. Performance figures on this site are illustrative; real performance data is available in our clinical evaluation and validation summary under agreement.

Illustrative figures notice

All performance figures on this page are illustrative placeholders. They show the types of metric a clinical audience expects in a formal validation report and the general magnitude of results seen in published second-reader AI studies. They are not claims about Verityn's measured performance in any released version. The clinical evaluation and validation summary is available to qualified clinical and procurement teams under a non-disclosure agreement. Contact our clinical team to request access.

Illustrative metrics

The performance a clinical audience needs to evaluate.

A second-reader validation reports both standalone model performance and the more important question: how does a radiologist read differently with it? Both are shown here as illustrative examples of the kinds of figures that appear in a full validation report.

Illustrative92.4%Sensitivity, standalone

Nodule detection on chest radiograph, retrospective de-identified dataset. Illustrative placeholder only.

Illustrative89.1%Specificity, standalone

Same chest radiograph validation cohort, per-image specificity. Illustrative placeholder only.

Illustrative0.941AUC, standalone read

Area under the ROC curve, nodule detection task. Higher is better; 1.0 is perfect. Illustrative placeholder only.

Illustrative0.967AUC, assisted read

Reader performance with Verityn flags versus unaided. The assisted AUC is the primary outcome of interest in a second-reader study. Illustrative placeholder only.

Illustrative-38%Miss rate, relative change

Relative reduction in missed findings, assisted versus unaided read arms. Illustrative placeholder only.

Illustrative+14 ppSensitivity gain, small lesions

Percentage-point improvement in sensitivity for sub-centimetre lesions, assisted over unaided read. Sub-group analysis. Illustrative placeholder only.

All figures are illustrative placeholders and do not constitute a claim of regulatory clearance or measured product performance.

Our method

How we run a reader study.

A rigorous reader study design is the foundation of any credible second-reader AI validation. Verityn follows a five-stage process, from protocol registration through to full analysis and reporting.

01

Protocol registration

Each study is defined in a written protocol before data access begins. The primary endpoint, cohort size, reader selection criteria, and statistical analysis plan are fixed in advance and do not change once data access opens.

02

Dataset curation

Cases are drawn from retrospective, de-identified imaging archives. Sampling targets a realistic case mix, including difficult and subtle findings, not a cherry-picked or enriched subset designed to favour any outcome.

03

Reader recruitment

A panel of radiologists with relevant subspecialty and general reading experience is recruited. Readers are independent of Verityn Ltd and blinded to each other's reports throughout both read arms.

04

Read design

Readers complete an unaided arm and then, after a controlled washout period, an assisted arm with Verityn flags visible. Order and washout length are pre-specified. A ground-truth reference standard is adjudicated by a separate expert panel.

05

Analysis and reporting

Primary metrics are sensitivity, specificity, and AUC across both arms. Pre-specified sub-group analyses cover finding size, modality, and reader experience level. Results are reported in full whether or not they favour Verityn.

Version control

Every model paired with its evaluation.

Verityn does not release a model update without a corresponding evaluation report. Each version carries a unique identifier, the validation dataset reference, the metrics recorded, and the date of lock. Previous versions and their reports are retained and remain accessible.

Unique version identifiers

Every released model version is assigned a unique alphanumeric identifier that travels with it into the audit trail and into any structured report it generates for a study.

Locked evaluation reports

Evaluation data is locked at the time of release. Subsequent model changes open a new evaluation cycle rather than overwriting or amending existing records.

Change impact assessment

Any modification to the model, training data, or post-processing pipeline triggers a documented impact assessment before deployment proceeds.

Quality management

ISO 13485 aligned quality system and post-market surveillance.

Verityn is developed under a quality management system aligned with ISO 13485, the international standard for medical device manufacturers. It governs design controls, risk management under EN ISO 14971, supplier qualification, and the post-market surveillance system that operates after every deployment.

Design controls

Requirements, design outputs, and verification and validation activities are documented and traced through the design history file. Nothing ships without a signed-off design review.

Risk management

Clinical and software risk assessments follow EN ISO 14971. Residual risk is reviewed against clinical benefit before any release decision is taken. The risk file is a living document.

Post-market surveillance

A formal post-market surveillance system collects structured feedback from deployed sites, monitors complaint trends, and feeds findings back into risk management and product development.

Vigilance and reporting

Serious incidents involving a Verityn-assisted read are reported to the relevant competent authority within the timeline required by each jurisdiction's vigilance rules.
