Abstract

AIMS: Neural network classifiers can detect aortic stenosis (AS) using limited cardiac ultrasound images. While networks perform very well using cart-based imaging, they have never been tested or fine-tuned for use with focused cardiac ultrasound (FoCUS) acquisitions obtained on handheld ultrasound devices.
