The Use of Artificial Intelligence Guidance for Rheumatic Heart Disease Screening by Novices

A novel technology utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) to provide real-time image-acquisition guidance, enabling novices to obtain diagnostic echocardiographic images, holds promise to expand the reach of echo screening for rheumatic heart disease (RHD). We evaluated the ability of nonexperts to obtain diagnostic-quality images in patients with RHD using AI guidance with color Doppler.
