Description
Summary:Purpose: To develop an artificial intelligence–based model to detect mitral regurgitation on chest radiographs. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included echocardiographs and associated chest radiographs consecutively collected at a single institution between July 2016 and May 2019. Associated radiographs were those obtained within 30 days of echocardiography. These radiographs were labeled as positive or negative for mitral regurgitation on the basis of the echocardiographic reports and were divided into training, validation, and test datasets. An artificial intelligence model was developed by using the training dataset and was tuned by using the validation dataset. To evaluate the model, the area under the curve, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value were assessed by using the test dataset. Results: This study included a total of 10 367 images from 5270 patients. The training dataset included 8240 images (4216 patients), the validation dataset included 1073 images (527 patients), and the test dataset included 1054 images (527 patients). The area under the curve, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, positive predictive value, and negative predictive value in the test dataset were 0.80 (95% CI: 0.77, 0.82), 71% (95% CI: 67, 75), 74% (95% CI: 70, 77), 73% (95% CI: 70, 75), 68% (95% CI: 64, 72), and 77% (95% CI: 73, 80), respectively. Conclusion: The developed deep learning–based artificial intelligence model may possibly differentiate patients with and without mitral regurgitation by using chest radiographs. © RSNA, 2022.
