Prediction of Echocardiographic measurements from ECG

In the field of medicine, the accurate assessment of cardiac health is of paramount importance. One essential diagnostic tool is the echocardiogram (ECG), a non-invasive test that provides critical information about the heart’s structure and function. However, obtaining an echocardiogram can be time-consuming and require specialized equipment and expertise. This is where artificial intelligence (AI) can make a significant impact.

The challenge for this hackathon is to develop AI models capable of predicting key parameters of an echocardiogram directly from an electrocardiogram (ECG). ECGs are more readily available and quicker to obtain than echocardiograms, making this approach highly practical for screening and monitoring patients’ cardiac health.

Participants in this hackathon will play a vital role in revolutionizing cardiac care by leveraging AI to bridge the gap between easily accessible ECG data and the valuable insights provided by echocardiograms. The solutions developed here have the potential to save lives and improve the quality of healthcare worldwide.
