Artificial Intelligence Echocardiogram (AI Echo)
AI Echo, short for Artificial Intelligence echocardiogram, refers to the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to aid interpretation and analysis of echocardiograms. This technology marks a significant advancement in cardiac imaging. AI applications can automatically perform the measurements for an echocardiogram. AI Echo provides accurate and consistent examination results while reducing the time needed for examination and increasing efficiency.
Features of AI Echo:
- Reducing examination time
- Providing accurate and consistent examination results
Who are suitable for AI Echo:
General health management and preventive screening
Individuals with the following Risk Factors
Obesity, high blood pressure, diabetes, or family history of heart diseaseRoutine Health Check-ups
Supplement routine health screenings with cardiac function and structure assessment
Oncology Patients
Patients undergoing chemotherapy
Monitor cardiac function according to needsCancer Survivors
Manage cardiovascular risk after cancer treatment
Functions of AI Echo:
Automated Measurements
Automatically calculating key parameters like ejection fraction and chamber sizes
Disease Detection
Identifying signs of various heart conditions, such as cardiomyopathies
Report Generation
Creating standardised reports that are easy to review
Important Notes:
- This examination service requires advance booking, and participants must present a relevant referral letter issued by a locally registered doctor.
- After assessment by our medical staff, if the participant's health condition is deemed not suitable for performing an artificial intelligence echocardiogram, conventional echocardiogram may be performed.
