Article Synopsis
- Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) is linked to serious cardiovascular issues, and identifying its cause is important for treatment; this systematic review explores how AI can help in diagnosing LVH and its causes from imaging data.
- A thorough search was conducted utilizing multiple databases, leading to the inclusion of 30 studies which mainly focused on echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR), with a smaller number on cardiac computed tomography (CT).
- The review found that AI methods, especially deep learning and convolutional neural networks, showed good diagnostic performance, with the highest accuracy in identifying the causes of LVH rather than just detecting it; more real-life validation studies and cost-effectiveness assessments are recommended.
