Predicts cardiac MRI (CMR) tissue-characterization findings -- wall-motion abnormalities and myocardial scar -- directly from standard transthoracic echocardiography videos (A4C/A2C/PLAX views), using a factorized 3D R2+1D convolutional network. Trained and validated on a single-institution cohort of more than 1,400 patients with paired echo and CMR studies within 30 days of each other. Released weights and inference code cover the two binarized outcomes (wall motion, scar); the continuous CMR tissue markers (native T1, T2, ECV) evaluated in the paper are not part of the public release.

Self- and weakly-supervised pipeline for left-ventricle segmentation across the full cardiac cycle in apical-4-chamber echocardiography videos. A video segmentation network (2D super-image or 3D U-Net encoder) is first pretrained with a self-supervised temporal-masking objective on largely unannotated echo frames, then fine-tuned with weak supervision from the sparse end-diastole/end-systole frame labels that most echo datasets provide. Achieves 93.3% Dice on EchoNet-Dynamic, outperforming nnU-Net and non-SSL baselines, and generalizes to the external CAMUS dataset. Developed by the BioMedIA group at MBZUAI.

Video-based deep learning model that grades aortic regurgitation (AR) severity—none/trace, mild, moderate, or severe—from color Doppler echocardiography. View-specific R(2+1)D 3D-CNNs analyze five standard transthoracic views (PLAX, PLAX-AV, A3C, A3C-AV, A5C) and their outputs are combined by a maximum-severity rule at the study level. Trained on ~47,600 color Doppler videos from Cedars-Sinai and externally validated at Stanford Healthcare, reaching AUCs of 0.95 for at-least-moderate AR and 0.97 for severe AR internally. Developed by the Ouyang lab at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Vision-language foundation model fine-tuned from CLIP on more than one million private echocardiogram video-report pairs, enabling zero-shot cardiac function assessment, device identification, and image/text retrieval without task-specific training. Combines a ConvNeXt-Base video encoder with a GPT-2-style text encoder under contrastive pretraining. Training data is private, but model weights and code are public. Developed by Cedars-Sinai's Ouyang lab.

General-purpose vision foundation model for echocardiography, pretrained with a masked autoencoder combined with a periodic contrastive loss designed around the cyclical nature of cardiac motion. Validated on chamber segmentation, view classification, and disease detection, with its largest advantage over non-pretrained baselines and natural-image models like SAM appearing in low-label settings. Pretrained on roughly 290,000 echo clips from a mix of internal and public sources. Developed by Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School.

Measures interventricular septum thickness, LV internal diameter, and posterior wall thickness from PLAX echocardiogram videos, then classifies the underlying cause of left ventricular hypertrophy as either cardiac amyloidosis or hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Combines an atrous-convolution 2D CNN for wall-thickness segmentation with a 3D residual CNN for etiology classification. Trained on 28,201 videos across Stanford, Cedars-Sinai, and the Unity Imaging Collaborative. Developed by Stanford University.

Fully automated pipeline that scans a complete transthoracic echocardiogram study, identifies the apical-4-chamber color-Doppler clips showing the mitral valve, and grades mitral regurgitation severity at the study level. Combines a view/valve-presence classifier with a spatiotemporal CNN for severity classification. Trained on a private Cedars-Sinai cohort of 58,614 studies and externally validated on 915 studies from Stanford Healthcare.

Vision-language foundation model that interprets an entire transthoracic echocardiogram study rather than a single view or video: it classifies the view type of every clip, applies view-informed attention across the full study, and generates or retrieves comprehensive study-level interpretations in English or Italian. Pretrained on a private Cedars-Sinai corpus of 12 million echo video-report pairs. Developed by the Smidt Heart Institute and Stanford's Ouyang lab.

View-agnostic, multi-task model that performs 39 different echocardiographic reporting tasks - covering chamber size and function, valve disease, and more - from any combination of views, aggregating clip-level predictions up to the study level. Combines a ConvNeXt-Tiny frame encoder with a temporal Transformer and separate output heads per task. Trained on private Yale-New Haven Health System echo videos and published in JAMA in 2025 by Yale's CarDS Lab.
