A Computer-Aided Triage and Notification (CADt) device uses artificial intelligence (AI) to prioritize radiological medical images and speed up reviews of diseased cases in time-sensitive conditions such as stroke, intercranial hemorrhage, and pneumothorax. However, questions remain on the quantitative assessment of the clinical effectiveness of CADt devices for speeding the review of patient images with time-sensitive conditions. This work presents an analytical method based on queueing theory to quantify the wait-time-savings and to study the impacts of CADt in various clinical settings. Theoretical results are consistent with clinical intuition and are verified by Monte Carlo simulations.
