Identification of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy on Electrocardiographic Images with Deep Learning.

ABSTRACT: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is frequently underdiagnosed. While deep learning (DL) models using raw electrocardiographic (ECG) voltage data can enhance detection, their use at the point-of-care is limited. Here we report the development and validation of a DL model that detects HCM from images of 12-lead ECGs across layouts. The model was developed using 124,553 ECGs from 66,987 individuals at the Yale New Haven Hospital (YNHH), with HCM features determined by concurrent imaging (cardiac magnetic resonance [CMR] or echocardiography). External validation included ECG images from MIMIC-IV, Amsterdam University Medical Center (AUMC), and UK Biobank, where HCM was defined by CMR (YNHH, MIMIC-IV, AUMC) and diagnosis codes (UK Biobank). The model demonstrated robust performance across imag
