We are excited to announce EchoPrime is published in Nature. EchoPrime is the first echocardiography AI model capable of evaluating a full transthoracic echocardiogram study, identify the most relevant videos, and produce a comprehensive interpretation!

Echocardiography is one of the most complex medical image sets to analyze, with multiple views + cardiac motion. A new

paper shows how A.I. can do that and provide accurate reports

1/n Excited to announce work by Dr. @BinderRodriguez
from @MedUni_Wien on the AI automated assessment of Aortic Regurgitation (AR) on #echofirst using 59,500 videos from @smidtheart.bsky.social. Lead by Dr. Bob Siegel.

1/n We are thrilled to present EchoNet-Measurements, an open source, comprehensive AI platform for automated #echofirst measurements.

Using more than 1,414,709 annotations from 155,215 studies from 78,037 patients for training, this is the most comprehensive #echofirst segmentation model.

A new article highlights an #AI algorithm that screens for chronic liver diseases in patients undergoing transthoracic echocardiography studies, using standard subcostal images routinely obtained to evaluate the inferior vena cava. Full article: nejm.ai/3XJuPNl

New preprint by @SarnoffCardio and @dgsomucla Victoria Yuan:

There are new therapies for obstructive HCM, however obstruction is frequently missed. Extra #echofirst work is required to eval for obstruction.

We develop an AI model on standard A4C videos to identify patients w/ obstruction.

Consistency - one of the most useful heuristics of whether a medical AI model is good or not.

I've noticed that AI models trained on small datasets tend to jitter - jumping a lot from frame to frame - while robust models tend to have consistent measurements across the entire video.

Coming soon...

Hey! I'm new here, but into science. Here's a paper that we just published (today) which uses deep learning on echocardiography to identify liver disease on subcostal views. I'm hoping that this type of cross-organ / somewhat multi-modal approaches inspires people! ai.nejm.org/stoken/defau...
Opportunistic Screening of Chronic Liver Disease with Deep-Learning–Enhanced Echocardiography
Chronic liver disease (CLD) affects more than 1.5 billion adults, most of whom are asymptomatic and undiagnosed. Echocardiography is broadly performed and visualizes the liver, but this information...
