As medical #AI development gathers momentum, a new study reveals that much work still needs to be done before the public will willingly embrace AI-based technologies in healthcare.

Residency programs who only give 6 weeks of maternity leave or less, who hurt you???

Seriously. It’s unacceptable.

Could not have asked for a better team to guide me on this research journey: @kayzayai @David_Ouyang @james_y_zou

[Kirsten Steffner, MD @KSteffner]

A deep learning based view classifier for intraoperative TEE videos. Will open up huge opportunities for further downstream analyses of this complicated (but clinically rich) imaging dataset! https://t.co/WCxGT53Iw5 #Echo #AI #ML

[Roxana Daneshjou MD/PhD @RoxanaDaneshjou]

Them: "The MD-PhD pipeline is broken"
Who broke it? The expectation these days is that after doing a full MD, PhD, a residency and maybe even a clinical fellowship, you have to do a postdoc and secure funding before being given a "real" job. Most people don't have that privilege.

[David Ouyang, MD @David_Ouyang]

Using the @CedarsSinaiMed #echofirst database, we trained an AI model to identify TEE views, and validated its performance on @StanfordMed TEEs to show generalizable strong accuracy.

[David Ouyang, MD @David_Ouyang]

Intraoperative and intraprocedural TEE data is a rich source of realtime information about cardiac physiology, hemodynamics, and patient condition. However, it's locked in unstructured data and not linked to surgical procedures or outcomes.

In addition to our work with TRANSTHORACIC echocardiography, we're exciting to announce our work on AI of TRANSESOPHAGEAL #echofirst in collaboration with @KSteffner @stanfordanes @DrBowdish @SmidtHeart and @james_y_zou @StanfordDBDS
