RADS radiologist's score (Oh)
RADS
Sum four caller-assigned Oh 2012 radiologist's-score quadrant findings on one 1-cm axial CT slice (normal 0, interstitial 1, ground_glass 2, consolidation 3; range 0-12) and return high when the score is greater than 8.

Not a medical device. Not a diagnosis, dose, or listing recommendation.
What it computes
Sum four caller-assigned Oh 2012 radiologist's-score quadrant findings on one 1-cm axial CT slice (normal 0, interstitial 1, ground_glass 2, consolidation 3; range 0-12) and return high when the score is greater than 8.
When to use
When an agent already has caller-assigned worst findings for four CT quadrants on one 1-cm axial slice and needs the published Oh 2012 RADS total and the score > 8 high flag. magent does not interpret CT, perform bronchoscopy, or assign AIS inhalation grade.
When not to use
- Not a medical device.
- Not a diagnosis of inhalation injury.
- Not a bronchoscopy substitute. magent does not take fiberoptic bronchoscopy grade.
- The caller assigns each quadrant finding. magent does not interpret CT or read images.
- Four quadrants on one 1-cm axial slice (Oh 2012 as reprinted in Dries/Walker 2015 Table 2). Not an eight-quadrant form.
- Not Endorf AIS inhalation grade. Not Yamamura bronchial wall thickness.
- Oh 2012 associated high RADS plus +FOB with a 12.7-fold composite pneumonia/ALI-ARDS/death outcome. This tool only sums the four CT findings; it does not take FOB or report that odds ratio.
Formula
RADS = q1 + q2 + q3 + q4; each quadrant worst finding on one 1-cm axial CT slice (Oh 2012 radiologist's score as reprinted in Dries/Walker 2015 Table 2): normal 0, interstitial (increased interstitial markings) 1, ground_glass 2, consolidation 3; four quadrants (not eight); range 0-12; high iff score > 8 per slice

Worked example
All four quadrants normal
Given:
q1=normalq2=normalq3=normalq4=normal
- q1, q2, q3, and q4 are normal (0 each)
- score = 0 (max 12); high is false
Four ground-glass quadrants (score 8)
Given:
q1=ground_glassq2=ground_glassq3=ground_glassq4=ground_glass
- each quadrant is ground_glass (2)
- score = 8; high is false (high iff score > 8)
Three consolidation and one ground-glass (score 11)
Given:
q1=consolidationq2=consolidationq3=consolidationq4=ground_glass
- three quadrants consolidation (3) plus one ground_glass (2)
- score = 11; high is true

Parameters
| Name | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
q1 |
string | required · normal, interstitial, ground_glass, consolidation | Caller-assigned worst finding in that quadrant on one 1-cm axial chest CT slice (Oh 2012 radiologist's score; four quadrants, not eight): normal (0), interstitial / increased interstitial markings (1), ground_glass (2), or consolidation (3). magent does not interpret CT. |
q2 |
string | required · normal, interstitial, ground_glass, consolidation | Caller-assigned worst finding in that quadrant on one 1-cm axial chest CT slice (Oh 2012 radiologist's score; four quadrants, not eight): normal (0), interstitial / increased interstitial markings (1), ground_glass (2), or consolidation (3). magent does not interpret CT. |
q3 |
string | required · normal, interstitial, ground_glass, consolidation | Caller-assigned worst finding in that quadrant on one 1-cm axial chest CT slice (Oh 2012 radiologist's score; four quadrants, not eight): normal (0), interstitial / increased interstitial markings (1), ground_glass (2), or consolidation (3). magent does not interpret CT. |
q4 |
string | required · normal, interstitial, ground_glass, consolidation | Caller-assigned worst finding in that quadrant on one 1-cm axial chest CT slice (Oh 2012 radiologist's score; four quadrants, not eight): normal (0), interstitial / increased interstitial markings (1), ground_glass (2), or consolidation (3). magent does not interpret CT. |
Bulk (POST)
POST the same path with a JSON items array. The first item is the GET unit; each additional item is $0.002. Invalid items return HTTP 400 before settlement.
- 1 to 25 items. Each item uses the same keys as the GET query parameters.
- POST of 1 item costs the same as GET. Lists longer than 25: chunk into multiple POSTs. Extra items still execute; do not pad dummy rows.
- The first invalid item fails the whole request (index in the 400 JSON). You are not charged.
- HTTP 200 is {count, path, items}. Each items[i] is the GET 200 body for that row.
- Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) stay paid 200s inside that slot.
- x402 resource URL is this path plus n and body_sha256. Browsers that prefer text/html get the same paywall as GET; Pay retries POST with the same items.

Payment
Unpaid requests return HTTP 402 even if query parameters or POST items are missing or invalid, so CDP and agents can index the path. After a PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid params return HTTP 400 JSON before settlement. magent does not charge. Fix the params, then request a new 402 quote for that complete URL. Catalog misses (empty matches, found=false) are valid paid 200s. Unpaid valid requests return HTTP 402 with a base64
PAYMENT-REQUIRED
header. HTTP 503 is not a new quote: retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Full handshake
and shared payment errors: Payments.
Stdio MCP: /docs/mcp.
Guarantees
- HTTP 402 is unpaid, including a missing query. After PAYMENT-SIGNATURE, invalid parameters return HTTP 400 before settlement. You are not charged. HTTP 402 never includes the tool JSON.
- exact: settlement finishes before the tool (paymentFlow upfront). batch-settlement: verify/deposit before the tool; chargedCumulativeAmount commits after HTTP 2xx. Uncertain or failed settlement fails closed (HTTP 503). Retry the same PAYMENT-SIGNATURE.
- HTTP 402 is unpaid only. Do not sign a second authorization because of a 503.
- Execution is timeout-bounded and concurrency-capped.
- Calculator inputs are stored encrypted for allowlisted operators (Magent Console). They are not in public logs, SSH lookups, catalog, or rollups. Request logs store path without query.
