Us2.v1

Us2.ai

Us2.ai supports cardiovascular disease diagnostics by providing machine learning based solutions that analyze and interpret echocardiograms, which are ultrasound images of the heart, creating patient reports, at scale, on mobile, on premises and cloud-based platforms.

Company Us2.ai
Subspeciality Cardiac
Modality Ultrasound
Disease targeted Heart disease, Pulmonary Hypertension
Key-features Automated measurements include 2-dimensional (cardiac volumes, all 4 chambers of the heart), M-mode (e.g. tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion), spectral Doppler (blood flow across all valves, both PW and CW measurements) and tissue Doppler
Suggested use During: perception aid (prompting all abnormalities/results/heatmaps), report suggestion
Data characteristics
Population Vast majority of adult transthoracic echocardiograms. Not intended for reporting measurements associated with valve disease, pericardial disease, or right-sided hemodynamics (e.g. estimated pulmonary artery systolic pressure); intra-cardiac lesions (e.g. tumours, thrombi); and will not report measurements for complex adult congenital heart disease.
