This work creates the first publicly available resource for predicting left ventricular ejection fraction (EF) from parasternal long-axis (PLAX) echocardiography by leveraging a time-based correlation between clinical notes and echocardiographic videos and fine-tuning view classifiers and proxy labeling.

The findings support controlled external validation under explicit image and target harmonization, while further prospective validation, calibration, and quality-control mechanisms are needed before clinical deployment.

Echocardiography is the most widely used cardiac imaging modality, yet interpretation demands integrating visual evidence across global anatomy, localized structures and dynamic cardiac motion, and Motion-biased Entropy Maximization Sampling (MEMS) to select the most informative frames for video-level analysis is intro...

Multimodal pretraining improved frozen DINO models over the uni-modal baseline, but its benefits diminished after fine-tuning, suggesting that encoder initialization and down-stream adaptation were more influential than increasingly complex echocardiographic supervision.

The limited availability of imaging data for uncommon cardiovascular phenotypes constrains the development of robust imaging models. We evaluated whether class-conditional diffusion models can generate synthetic transthoracic echocardiograms that improve downstream cardiac imaging tasks. The primary application was car...

Deep video networks estimate left ventricular ejection fraction from echocardiograms with expert-level accuracy, but the compute cost of running them is rarely reported, so this work sets a practical floor for how inexpensive this task can be.
