CMS has issued a new HCPCS code for echocardiography image post processing for computer aided detection of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction, including interpretation and report and the timing could not be better for doctors and patients given our ability to completely automate the detection of all types of heart failure (HFpEF, HFrEF, HFmrEF)…

A Beat Ahead on World Heart Day. Us2.ai is building a future where everyone has equal access to high quality, inexpensive echo analysis. Hear from leading global cardiologists how AI Echocardiography can transform disease management. See how AI automated analysis can reduce echo backlogs and improve efficiency in real world hospital settings as demonstrated in…

Using AI to interpret images from a handheld ultrasound device could help speed up detection of heart failure, new research suggests. Dr Ross Campbell, from the University of Glasgow, said: “Our breaking new OPERA results show that investing in AI in healthcare could offer remarkable benefits to both patients and the NHS. “We have shown…

Diagnosis of sub-clinical heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is challenging and echo services are traditionally limited to tertiary echo centres.  Early signs of heart failure often go undiagnosed until patients are hospitalized for heart failure syndrome. We want to extend echo diagnostics into the community, especially for the primary care diabetes population, so that…

Aortic stenosis (AoS) is a common form of valvular heart disease present in 12% of the population aged above 75. If left untreated, 1/4 of those with severe symptomatic AoS will die from this condition within 2 years. Echo is the primary imaging modality used to diagnose AoS, but the necessary imaging is time consuming…

Join the virtual echo rounds deep dive with Us2.ai for detailed examples real time processing of complete echo reports and see why the future of AI for echocardiograms is already here today.

Us2.connect turns any ultrasound device into your AI echo copilot. From CARTs to mobile devices, any echo machine can now have 100% automated reporting with disease detection and editable measurements, all generated in realtime as you scan. See the AI echo copilot video There is constant demand for highly trained sonographers and cardiologists to examine…

Fully automated echo reporting and disease detection in realtime with the GE Vivid E95. The future of AI for ultrasound is here today!

We have an increasing number of patients with diabetes, hypertension and chronic kidney disease who know about their chronic disease but don’t know whether they have heart failure or not.  We need to have a way to determine those patients who have, or who are at risk of having heart failure, without necessarily needing to see…

The ESC Heart Failure Guidelines recommend measurement of plasma NT-proBNP concentration as an initial step, and echocardiography as a necessary tool to confirm HF diagnosis, as well as to distinguish between types of HF. Nt-proBNP biomarker testing and echocardiography delivered in primary care and community settings could potentially expand access to screening and enable earlier…
