Use of artificial intelligence-guided echocardiography to detect cardiac dysfunction and heart valve disease in rural and remote areas: Rationale and design of the AGILE-echo trial.

American heart journal
BACKGROUND: Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is essential in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases (CVD), including but not limited to heart failure (HF) and heart valve disease (HVD). However, its dependence on expert acquisition means that i...

Assessment of left ventricular wall thickness and dimension: accuracy of a deep learning model with prediction uncertainty.

The international journal of cardiovascular imaging
Left ventricular (LV) geometric patterns aid clinicians in the diagnosis and prognostication of various cardiomyopathies. The aim of this study is to assess the accuracy and reproducibility of LV dimensions and wall thickness using deep learning (DL)...

Development of an artificial intelligence-based algorithm for predicting the severity of myxomatous mitral valve disease from thoracic radiographs by using two grading systems.

Research in veterinary science
A heart-convolutional neural network (heart-CNN) was designed and tested for the automatic classification of chest radiographs in dogs affected by myxomatous mitral valve disease (MMVD) at different stages of disease severity. A retrospective and mul...

A YOLOX-Based Deep Instance Segmentation Neural Network for Cardiac Anatomical Structures in Fetal Ultrasound Images.

IEEE/ACM transactions on computational biology and bioinformatics
Echocardiography is an essential procedure for the prenatal examination of the fetus for congenital heart disease (CHD). Accurate segmentation of key anatomical structures in a four-chamber view is an essential step in measuring fetal growth paramete...

Transforming Echocardiography: The Role of Artificial Intelligence in Enhancing Diagnostic Accuracy and Accessibility.

Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan)
Artificial intelligence (AI) has shown transformative potential in various medical fields, including diagnostic imaging. Recent advances in AI-driven technologies have opened new avenues for improving echocardiographic practices. AI algorithms enhanc...

Artificial intelligence-derived left ventricular strain in echocardiography in patients treated with chemotherapy.

The international journal of cardiovascular imaging
Global longitudinal strain (GLS) is an echocardiographic measure to detect chemotherapy-related cardiovascular dysfunction. However, its limited availability and the needed expertise may restrict its generalization. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based...

A spatio-temporal graph convolutional network for ultrasound echocardiographic landmark detection.

Medical image analysis
Landmark detection is a crucial task in medical image analysis, with applications across various fields. However, current methods struggle to accurately locate landmarks in medical images with blurred tissue boundaries due to low image quality. In pa...

Automated Quality Assessment of Medical Images in Echocardiography Using Neural Networks with Adaptive Ranking and Structure-Aware Learning.

International journal of neural systems
The quality of medical images is crucial for accurately diagnosing and treating various diseases. However, current automated methods for assessing image quality are based on neural networks, which often focus solely on pixel distortion and overlook t...

Multicenter validation study for automated left ventricular ejection fraction assessment using a handheld ultrasound with artificial intelligence.

Scientific reports
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 ...
