Artificial intelligence detects the most severe type of heart attack and locates the blocked artery with high precision - Agência SP, the São Paulo news agency
Translated title. Original: Inteligência artificial detecta tipo mais grave de infarto e localiza artéria bloqueada com alta precisão - Agência SP, a agência de notícias de São Paulo
An international collaboration trains an AI to detect acute coronary occlusion from 12-lead ECGs and locate the blocked artery, aiming to speed emergency decisions and catheterization when needed. The model, validated in Brazil and with European and UFMG datasets, is the first of its kind demonstrated in a Brazilian population.
