April 15, 2024 updated by: Istituto Auxologico Italiano
IMPlementazione di algoRitmi di Assistenza Alla diagnOsi in un Software di Refertazione Computerizzato Che Valuta Anche l'Accuratezza Dell'Esame ECOcardiografico
This observational study aims to improve the accuracy of the report of the echocardiographic study, making it more consistent with the current international guidelines and reducing the diagnostic mistakes in patients undergoing clinically -indicated echocardiography. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- can the addition of automated diagnostic algorithms help to improve the overall accuracy of the echocardiographic report?
