Deep learning-based echocardiography for cardiac assessment: a systematic literature review and meta-analysis

Aims: Artificial intelligence, particularly deep learning (DL), has shown significant potential for enhancing the assessment of echocardiograms in clinical practice. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to evaluate the performance of DL models and to identify factors affecting their performance. Methods and results: A systematic review of the PubMed, CENTRAL, and Web of Science databases was conducted, yielding 16 248 potential publications. Of these, 160 studies met the inclusion criteria. Only studie…

Current reading — gain

Pooled evidence from 160 studies suggests deep learning models reach high performance in echocardiography tasks and may reduce reliance on expert input in selected tasks.

Current reading — problem

Unresolved high heterogeneity in chamber segmentation and view classification studies, plus a lack of real-world validation, limits confidence in clinical adoption.

What this doesn’t fix

Heterogeneity across segmentation and view classification studies could not be resolved, and the authors state that further validation, clinical utility assessment, and real-world evaluation are needed before widespread adoption.

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2049 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
