The Evolving Role of Artificial Intelligence in Cardiac Image Analysis

Can J Cardiol. 2022 Feb;38(2):214-224. doi: 10.1016/j.cjca.2021.09.030. Epub 2021 Oct 4.

Abstract

Research in artificial intelligence (AI) has progressed over the past decade. The field of cardiac imaging has seen significant developments using newly developed deep learning methods for automated image analysis and AI tools for disease detection and prognostication. This review is aimed at those without special background in AI. We review AI concepts and survey the growing contemporary applications of AI for image analysis in echocardiography, nuclear cardiology, cardiac computed tomography, cardiac magnetic resonance, and invasive angiography.
