Heart Failure Diagnosis with AI Handheld Echo
Article | Jul 29, 2025 A new study published in the European Journal of Heart Failure showcases the power of artificial intelligence to transform how heart failure is diagnosed. Researchers tested fully automated AI analysis (Us2ai) on images acquired using handheld echocardiography in 867 real world patients with suspected heart failure. The AI accurately detected left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF ≤40 percent) with a diagnostic accuracy of 0.93, closely matching expe
