Authors' conclusion

The software reduced the time taken to perform and volumetrically analyse routine echocardiograms without a decrease in accuracy compared with experts.

Study context

Population
Patients undergoing echocardiography: 50 consecutive patients (real-time), 40 subjects with repeated exams, internal and external research databases of 1881 and 849 subjects
Comparison
Artificial intelligence (AI) automatic left ventricular (LV) volume and ejection fraction (EF) measurements vs manual measurements
Outcome
Acquisition and processing time, test-retest reproducibility and agreement with reference of LV volumes and EF
