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 ...
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...
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...
INTRODUCTION: Congenital heart defect (CHD) is a significant, rapidly emerging global problem in child health and a leading cause of neonatal and childhood death. Prenatal detection of CHDs with the help of ultrasound allows better perinatal manageme...
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...
Segmentation and measurement of cardiac chambers from ultrasound is critical, but laborious and poorly reproducible. Neural networks can assist, but supervised approaches require the same problematic manual annotations. We build a pipeline for self-s...

PURPOSE: The aim of this sub-analysis of the RESUS-AMI trial was to evaluate the correlation of artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted echocardiographic global longitudinal strain (GLS) assessments with infarct size, left ventricular ejection fraction...
Aortic stenosis (AS) is a prevalent heart valve disease that requires accurate and timely diagnosis for effective treatment. Current methods for automated AS severity classification rely on black-box deep learning techniques, which suffer from a low ...
INTRODUCTION: Artificial Intelligence (AI) modules might simplify the complexities of cardiac ultrasound (US) training by offering real-time, step-by-step guidance on probe manipulation for high-quality diagnostic imaging. This study investigates rea...

Nonspecific symptoms and other diagnostic challenges lead to underdiagnosis of cardiac amyloidosis (CA). Artificial intelligence (AI) could help address these challenges, but a summary of the performance of these tools is lacking. This narrative revi...
