Bridging the gap: AI in echocardiography for early detection of LVH in underserved areas

Bridging the gap: AI in echocardiography for early detection of LVH in underserved areas

Left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) has emerged as a prognostic indicator in patients with hypertension [1]. The presence of LVH in hypertensive individuals signifies a heightened risk for adverse cardiovascular events, as evidenced by a plethora of studies demonstrating its association with increased morbidity and mortality. The critical role of imaging modalities, such as echocardiography and …

Fiber optic computing using distributed feedback

Fiber optic computing using distributed feedback

Operating principle The basic operating principle is outlined in Fig. 1. Data is first encoded in the time domain as a series of optical pulses. This pulse train is then injected into an optical fiber where it is partially reflected by a series of Rayleigh scattering centers. This distributed backscattering process randomly mixes the elements in …
