BACKGROUND: This retrospective study aims to validate the effectiveness of artificial intelligence (AI) to detect and classify non-mass breast lesions (NMLs) on ultrasound (US) images.
Perioperative monitoring of cardiac function is beneficial for early detection of cardiovascular complications. The standard of care for cardiac monitoring performed by trained cardiologists and anesthesiologists involves a manual and qualitative eva...
