Relation to AI

The AI-ECG probability (>0.95) was the trigger for referral and echocardiography in a patient not previously suspected of HCM. Imaging confirmed the diagnosis and clinicians chose the treatment. Disclosed relationships: Dr Desai is a consultant for and has research agreements with Viz-ai (among other companies). Mrs Rutkowski is a consultant for Viz-ai. Mrs Ospina has none. All three authors are listed under the Cleveland Clinic Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Center, with no Viz.ai affiliation.
