AI-Powered 3D heart scan could revolutionize valve leak diagnosis

This study tests a new artificial intelligence software that uses 3D echocardiography to measure mitral regurgitation (a leaky heart valve) more accurately than the standard 2D method. Researchers will compare the 3D tool against cardiac MRI, the current gold standard, in 200 adults with moderate or severe mitral regurgitation. If successful, the tool could help doctors make faster and better treatment decisions, especially during emergency procedures.
