Echocardiography is the gold standard of diagnosis and evaluation of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA), a common condition among preterm infants that can cause hemodynamic abnormalities and increased mortality rates, but this technique requires a skille...

BACKGROUND: Aortic regurgitation (AR) is a prevalent valve disease with a long latent period before symptoms appear. Recent data has suggested the role of novel markers of myocardial overload in assessing onset of decompensation.
BACKGROUND: Speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) provides quantification of left ventricular (LV) deformation and is useful in the assessment of LV function. STE is increasingly being used clinically, and every effort to simplify and standardize S...
Multimodal imaging is crucial for diagnosis and treatment in paediatric cardiology. However, the proficiency of artificial intelligence chatbots, like ChatGPT-4, in interpreting these images has not been assessed. This cross-sectional study evaluates...

BACKGROUND: Early detection of left and right ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD and RVSD respectively) in children can lead to intervention to reduce morbidity and death. Existing artificial intelligence algorithms can identify LVSD and RVSD in ...
Left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (LVGLS) is versatile; however, it is difficult to obtain. We evaluated the potential of an artificial intelligence (AI)-generated electrocardiography score for LVGLS estimation (ECG-GLS score) to diagn...
BACKGROUND: The lack of automated tools for measuring care quality limits the implementation of a national program to assess guideline-directed care in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

BACKGROUND: The presence and intensity of heart murmurs are sensitive indicators of several cardiac diseases in dogs, particularly myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD), but accurate interpretation requires substantial clinical expertise.
OBJECTIVE: There are few studies evaluating the accuracy of commercially available AI-powered digital auscultation platforms in detecting valvular heart disease (VHD). Therefore, the utility of these systems for diagnosing clinically significant VHD ...
