Artificial intelligence-based myocardial texture analysis in etiological differentiation of left ventricular hypertrophy.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is widely used in clinics to evaluate left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). However, TTE is usually insufficient for the etiological diagnoses when morphological and functional features are nonspecific. With the booming of computer science and artificial intelligence (AI), previous literature has reported the application of radiomics based on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, cardiac computed tomography and TTE in diagnosing several myocardial abnormalities, such as myocardial infarction, myocarditis, cardiac amyloidosis, and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). In this study, we explored the possibility of using myocardial texture features in differentiating HCM, hypertensive heart disease (HHD) and uremic cardiomyopathy (UCM) based on
