BACKGROUND: Atrial fibrillation and heart failure commonly coexist due to shared pathophysiological mechanisms. Prompt identification of patients with heart failure at risk of developing atrial fibrillation would allow clinicians the opportunity to i...
BACKGROUND: Premature ventricular complexes (PVCs) are prevalent and, although often benign, they may lead to PVC-induced cardiomyopathy. We created a deep-learning algorithm to predict left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) reduction in patients ...
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the performance of a deep learning-based multi-source model for survival prediction and risk stratification in patients with heart failure.
BACKGROUND: Evidence has shown the independent prognostic value of right ventricular (RV) function, even in patients with left-sided heart disease. The most widely used imaging technique to measure RV function is echocardiography; however, convention...
Accurate segmentation of the left ventricle (LV) is crucial for evaluating myocardial perfusion SPECT (MPS) and assessing LV functions. In this study, a novel method combining deep learning with shape priors was developed and validated to extract the...
Artificial intelligence (AI) has been developed for echocardiography, although it has not yet been tested with blinding and randomization. Here we designed a blinded, randomized non-inferiority clinical trial (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05140642; no o...

AIMS: Assessment of left ventricular (LV) function by echocardiography is hampered by modest test-retest reproducibility. A novel artificial intelligence (AI) method based on deep learning provides fully automated measurements of LV global longitudin...
Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is essential for evaluating left ventricular systolic function. However, its clinical calculation requires the physician to interactively segment the left ventricle and obtain the mitral annulus and apical la...

BACKGROUND: Significant interobserver and interstudy variability occurs for left ventricular (LV) functional indices despite standardization of measurement techniques. Artificial intelligence models trained on adult echocardiograms are not likely to ...
