Al-based diagnosis of acute aortic syndrome from noncontrast CT
Descripción general
Resumen del artículo
An AI system called iAorta can detect acute aortic syndrome (AAS) from regular CT scans, which are cheaper and easier to access than the preferred CT angiograms. This is especially useful in China, where cost and resource limitations mean many patients only get regular CT scans initially. The system showed high accuracy in tests across multiple hospitals and significantly sped up diagnosis in a prospective trial.
