Cardiac ultrasound needs specialist expertise
Ultrasound can reveal important information about heart function within minutes, but acquiring and interpreting cardiac images requires specialized training. Even where portable ultrasound equipment is available, physicians without formal echocardiography training may be unable to use it independently.
AI-guided bedside cardiac assessment
AISAP combines AI-guided image acquisition with automated cardiac analysis, so clinicians can conduct bedside cardiac assessments without extensive specialist training. In 2024, it received FDA clearance for four diagnostic modules and eight automated measurements.
In a prospective study of 660 patients, physicians without formal sonography training used AISAP to identify clinically relevant cardiac findings in 29% of patients, including previously undocumented diagnoses in 22%.
