AI Powered Echocardiography

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to discuss the current technological developments in diagnostic cardiovascular care. Echocardiography, a widely known imaging tool, extracts insights about a patients’ cardiac anatomy and perform necessary treatments or procedures based on their diagnoses. AI models respond to vast amounts of raw cardiac data and use Deep Learning algorithms to identify images with remarkable speed and accuracy. AI applications in computer vision offer key benefits in the healthcare industry. Companies such as Siemens are the key players – the commercialization of new AI technology has enabled healthcare organizations to streamline workflows, reduce errors, and lower costs.Potentially, there will be no reproducibility issues thereby redirecting clinical efforts towards patient treatment planning and research to prevent uptrends of heart disease.
