Yale Team Develops AI to Predict Worsening Heart Valve Disease
• Yale researchers identified an AI-based video biomarker to predict worsening aortic stenosis using cardiac ultrasound • The biomarker, called DASSi, detects hidden signatures of disease progression not visible to experts • DASSi can convert data from cardiac MRIs, ECGs, and ultrasounds using the same model • Researchers plan a clinical trial to confirm DASSi's ability to diagnose aortic stenosis and predict progression • DASSi may enable opportunistic screening for aortic stenosis during routine ECGs
