Abstract

BACKGROUND: Aortic stenosis (AS) is a degenerative valve condition that is underdiagnosed and undertreated. Detection of AS using limited two-dimensional echocardiography could enable screening and improve appropriate referral and treatment of this condition. The aim of this study was to develop methods for automated detection of AS from limited imaging data sets.
