BACKGROUND: Global longitudinal strain (GLS) is reported to be more reproducible and prognostic than ejection fraction. Automated, transparent methods may increase trust and uptake.
We sought to validate the ability of a novel handheld ultrasound device with an artificial intelligence program (AI-POCUS) that automatically assesses left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). AI-POCUS was used to prospectively scan 200 patients in ...
Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is the thickening of the left ventricle wall of the heart. The objective of this study is to develop a novel approach for the accurate assessment of LVH) severity, addressing the limitations of traditional manual gr...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence, particularly deep learning (DL), has immense potential to improve the interpretation of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common valvular heart disease and presents unique...
The increasing prevalence of heart failure (HF) in ageing populations drives demand for echocardiography (echo). There is a worldwide shortage of trained sonographers and long waiting times for expert echo. We hypothesised that artificial intelligenc...
BACKGROUND: New-onset atrial fibrillation (NOAF) occurs in 5% to 15% of patients who undergo transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Cardiac imaging has been underutilized to predict NOAF following TAVR.
OBJECTIVE: Although there are methods to identify regions of interest (ROIs) from echocardiographic images of myocardial tissue, they are often time-consuming and difficult to create when image quality is poor. Further, while myocardial strain from u...
