The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) awarded a 5-year, $1,584,184 Project Grant (CFDA 93.837 Cardiovascular Diseases Research) to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center to develop deep learning algorithms that can precisely characterize mitral valve disease and identify accelerated cardiovascular risk trajectories. The researchers will leverage echocardiography data from both healthcare and community-based cohorts to train and validate AI models that can automate the phenotyping of mitral regurgitation severity, systolic dysfunction, diastolic parameters, and other measures of adverse myocardial response. This will enable the identification of key contributors to accelerated cardiovascular risk in mitral valve disease, as well as detect clinically underdiagnosed cases. The overall goal is to utilize AI-powered echocardiography to improve the understanding, prevention, and treatment of valvular heart diseases.
