ARKA Clinical Decision Support is designed to meet all four criteria for Non-Device CDS under FD&C Act §520(o)(1)(E) and FDA's January 2026 final guidance on Clinical Decision Support Software. Recommendations support, not replace, the clinician's judgment. Every recommendation is anchored in a published guideline or peer-reviewed source, with the basis available for independent review. ED is an educational training tool for imaging appropriateness; it is not used for live, time-critical emergency decisions.

The clinician is responsible for the final decision.
