EchoCoTr: Estimation of the Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction from Spatiotemporal Echocardiography
arXiv ·
Researchers from MBZUAI have developed EchoCoTr, a novel spatiotemporal deep learning method for estimating left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) from echocardiograms. EchoCoTr combines CNNs and vision transformers to overcome the limitations of each when applied to medical video data. The method achieves state-of-the-art results on the EchoNet-Dynamic dataset, demonstrating improved accuracy compared to existing approaches, with code available on GitHub.
