AIMS: To investigate the utility of novel deep learning (DL) algorithms in recognizing transposition of the great arteries (TGA) after atrial switch procedure or congenitally corrected TGA (ccTGA) based on routine transthoracic echocardiograms. In ad...
Artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed key aspects of human life. Machine learning (ML), which is a subset of AI wherein machines autonomously acquire information by extracting patterns from large databases, has been increasingly used within th...
OBJECTIVES: This study sought to build a patient-patient similarity network using multiple features of left ventricular (LV) structure and function in patients with aortic stenosis (AS). The study further validated the observations in an experimental...

This article describes the study results of echocardiographic (ECHO) test data for 4P medicine applied to cardiovascular patients. Data from more than 145,000 echocardiographic tests were analyzed. One of the objectives of the study is the possibilit...
BACKGROUND: Automated cardiac image interpretation has the potential to transform clinical practice in multiple ways, including enabling serial assessment of cardiac function by nonexperts in primary care and rural settings. We hypothesized that adva...
