Early detection of cardiac amyloidosis is leads to the best outcomes, but it is often missed until later stages. AI is being developed to help detect these patients earlier using ECG and echo.
Researchers developed an advanced AI model capable of extracting measurements from unprocessed CT images in seconds. It then uses those data to evaluate the patient's mortality risk if they underwent TAVR.
Scientists are people too. As such, when engaged in research projects using AI, they must resist the very human impulse to over-delegate tasks to algorithms.
The advanced algorithm achieved a sensitivity of 93% and specificity of 98%. It was trained to identify up to five different valvular diseases at the same time from a single audio clip.

Researchers at the University of Illinois Chicago have developed an elective course that can quickly transform fourth-year medical students from functional AI novices to budding AI experts.
The National Science Foundation (NSF) is setting up seven new institutes for studying foundational AI. Two of the initiatives have healthcare as a prime focus.
U.S. health systems are increasingly leveraging digital health to conduct their operations, but how health systems are using digital health in their strategies can vary widely.
When human counselors are unavailable to provide work-based wellness coaching, robots can substitute—as long as the workers are comfortable with emerging technologies and the machines aren’t overly humanlike.
A vendor that supplies EHR software to public health agencies is partnering with a health-tech startup in the cloud-communications space to equip state and local governments for managing their response to the COVID-19 crisis.
