Doctors develop AI stethoscope that can detect major heart conditions in 15 seconds


Upgraded medical tool can diagnose heart failure, heart valve disease and abnormal heart rhythms

Details of the breakthrough, which could boost early diagnosis of the three conditions, were presented to thousands of doctors at the European Society of Cardiology annual congress in Madrid, the world’s largest heart conference. This information is sent to the cloud – a secure online data storage area – to be analysed by AI algorithms that can detect subtle heart problems a human would miss. The AI stethoscope gives local clinicians the ability to spot problems earlier, diagnose patients in the community, and address some of the big killers in society.”
