Using AI to interpret images from a handheld ultrasound device could help speed up detection of heart failure, new research suggests.
Researchers highlighted that this is a huge reduction in clinical time and said it has the potential to significantly speed up heart failure diagnosis waiting times. “We have shown that AI can interpret echocardiogram images accurately, and given AI can produce a report in a fraction of the time, this could really make a difference in allowing us to make early diagnosis of heart failure possible.
The latest OPERA results show that using AI to interpret echocardiogram images could allow early diagnosis, according to the researchers.
