Deep learning-based video-level view classification of two-dimensional transthoracic echocardiography.

Biomedical physics & engineering express
In recent years, deep learning (DL)-based automatic view classification of 2D transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) has demonstrated strong performance, but has not fully addressed key clinical requirements such as view coverage, classification accura...

Enhanced heart failure mortality prediction through model-independent hybrid feature selection and explainable machine learning.

Journal of biomedical informatics
Heart failure (HF) remains a significant public health challenge with high mortality rates. Machine learning (ML) techniques offer a promising approach to predict HF mortality, potentially improving clinical outcomes. However, the effectiveness of th...

Ontology-guided machine learning outperforms zero-shot foundation models for cardiac ultrasound text reports.

Scientific reports
Big data can revolutionize research and quality improvement for cardiac ultrasound. Text reports are a critical part of such analyses. Cardiac ultrasound reports include structured and free text and vary across institutions, hampering attempts to min...

Development and Evaluation of a Deep Learning-Based Pulmonary Hypertension Screening Algorithm Using a Digital Stethoscope.

Journal of the American Heart Association
BACKGROUND: Despite the poor outcomes related to the presence of pulmonary hypertension, it often goes undiagnosed in part because of low suspicion and screening tools not being easily accessible such as echocardiography. A new readily available scre...

Deep learning image registration for cardiac motion estimation in adult and fetal echocardiography via a focus on anatomic plausibility and texture quality of warped image.

Computers in biology and medicine
Temporal echocardiography image registration is important for cardiac motion estimation, myocardial strain assessments, and stroke volume quantifications. Deep learning image registration (DLIR) is a promising way to achieve consistent and accurate r...

Regional Image Quality Scoring for 2-D Echocardiography Using Deep Learning.

Ultrasound in medicine & biology
OBJECTIVE: To develop and compare methods to automatically estimate regional ultrasound image quality for echocardiography separate from view correctness.

Multiple token rearrangement Transformer network with explicit superpixel constraint for segmentation of echocardiography.

Medical image analysis
Diagnostic cardiologists have considerable clinical demand for precise segmentation of echocardiography to diagnose cardiovascular disease. The paradox is that manual segmentation of echocardiography is a time-consuming and operator-dependent task. C...

Artificial intelligence-enhanced comprehensive assessment of the aortic valve stenosis continuum in echocardiography.

EBioMedicine
BACKGROUND: Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is the primary modality for diagnosing aortic stenosis (AS), yet it requires skilled operators and can be resource-intensive. We developed and validated an artificial intelligence (AI)-based system for...

Deep Learning-Enabled Assessment of Right Ventricular Function Improves Prognostication After Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair for Mitral Regurgitation.

Circulation. Cardiovascular imaging
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular (RV) function has a well-established prognostic role in patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) and is typically assessed using echocardiography-measured tricusp...

Development and validation of an interpretable machine learning model for predicting left atrial thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast in non-valvular atrial fibrillation patients.

PloS one
PURPOSE: Left atrial thrombus or spontaneous echo contrast (LAT/SEC) are widely recognized as significant contributors to cardiogenic embolism in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). This study aimed to construct and validate an interpretable pre...
