Radiomics early assessment of post chemotherapy cardiotoxicity in cancer patients using 2D echocardiography imaging an interpretable machine learning study.

Scientific reports
Cardiotoxicity is the loss of the heart muscle's ability to contract effectively, often due to chemotherapy or radiation therapy. This study uses interpretable machine learning to predict post-chemotherapy cardiotoxicity using radiomics features extr...

Enhancing cardiac disease detection via a fusion of machine learning and medical imaging.

Scientific reports
Cardiovascular illnesses continue to be a predominant cause of mortality globally, underscoring the necessity for prompt and precise diagnosis to mitigate consequences and healthcare expenditures. This work presents a complete hybrid methodology that...

Artificial Intelligence-Enabled Point-of-Care Echocardiography: Bringing Precision Imaging to the Bedside.

Current atherosclerosis reports
PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) with point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) is transforming cardiovascular diagnostics by enhancing image acquisition, interpretation, and workflow efficiency. These advancements hold promi...

Early warning and stratification of the elderly cardiopulmonary dysfunction-related diseases: multicentre prospective study protocol.

BMJ open
INTRODUCTION: In China, there is a lack of standardised clinical imaging databases for multidimensional evaluation of cardiopulmonary diseases. To address this gap, this study protocol launched a project to build a clinical imaging technology integra...

Automated ejection fraction and risk stratification in cardiomyopathy patients with diverse LV geometry using 2D echocardiography.

Scientific reports
Cardiomyopathy often alters left ventricular geometry (LVG), impairing cardiac function. We developed a deep learning (DL) model to estimate left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) from echocardiographic images while accounting for LVG variability ...

Interpretable machine learning for predicting isolated basal septal hypertrophy.

PloS one
BACKGROUND: The basal septal hypertrophy(BSH) is an often under-recognized morphological change in the left ventricle. This is a common echocardiographic finding with a prevalence of approximately 7-20%, which may indicate early structural and functi...

Epicardial adipose tissue, myocardial remodelling and adverse outcomes in asymptomatic aortic stenosis: a post hoc analysis of a randomised controlled trial.

Heart (British Cardiac Society)
BACKGROUND: Epicardial adipose tissue represents a metabolically active visceral fat depot that is in direct contact with the left ventricular myocardium. While it is associated with coronary artery disease, little is known regarding its role in aort...

Semi-Supervised Echocardiography Video Segmentation via Adaptive Spatio-Temporal Tensor Semantic Awareness and Memory Flow.

IEEE transactions on medical imaging
Accurate segmentation of cardiac structures in echocardiography videos is vital for diagnosing heart disease. However, challenges such as speckle noise, low spatial resolution, and incomplete video annotations hinder the accuracy and efficiency of se...

Deep Learning in Echocardiography for Enhanced Detection of Left Ventricular Function and Wall Motion Abnormalities.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain a leading cause of mortality worldwide, underscoring the need for advancements in diagnostic methodologies to improve early detection and treatment outcomes. This systematic review examines the integration of adv...
