Multimodal Generative AI Assists Comprehensive Echocardiographic Interpretation

Read the original on arXiv Computer Vision →

EchoChat is a generative multimodal vision‑language model that performs comprehensive echocardiographic analysis, emulating a cardiologist’s cognitive workflow. Trained on 46,358 examinations, it achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance across 33 cardiac conditions, including 15 new ones, and outperforms existing foundation models in both recognition and quantification tasks. In a blinded reader study, reports co‑generated with EchoChat were rated higher in diagnostic accuracy and completeness, improving F1 score from 72.78% to 82.75%.

Enhancing Explainable Cardiac Diagnosis with Guide-Grounded Multimodal LLMs

arXiv:2607. 20814v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The electrocardiogram (ECG) is a cornerstone of cardiac as- sessment, yet clinical deployment of deep learning models remains con- strained by limited interpretability and the hallucination risk of large language models (LLMs).

EchoTab: Learning Measurement-Grounded Representations for Echocardiographic Diagnosis through Tabular Reconstruction

EchoTab is a representation learning framework for multi‑view echocardiography that uses measurement‑specific tokens as an intermediate representation between echo views and diagnosis. Each token attends to the views relevant to its measurement and is trained via tabular reconstruction to predict the measurement value, producing a factorized representation that encodes clinically meaningful structural and functional properties. Experiments on two datasets show that EchoTab improves diagnosis classification and that its learned attention aligns with cardiologists’ established measurement‑view relationships.
