AI assisted focused cardiac ultrasound in preventive cardiology – a perspective
摘要
Integrating focused cardiac ultrasound (FoCUS) and AI transforms cardiovascular health care. We advocate for the application of these technologies for the early detection and management of various cardiac conditions, expanding beyond traditional atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease detection. In this perspective, we propose a framework that utilizes AI-assisted FoCUS to assess biological age as a risk factor and identify valvular heart disease, occult atrial fibrillation, heart failure, and pulmonary hypertension.
