This study examined the real-time diagnostic accuracy of artificial intelligence-assisted lung ultrasound (AI-LUS) in identifying absent lung sliding, crucial for pneumothorax diagnosis. Results indicated high sensitivity and moderate specificity for AI-LUS, suggesting its potential utility in clinical settings.

This study introduced a deep learning-based solution to automate the assessment of pneumothorax through lung ultrasound (LUS) by detecting lung sliding artifacts. Using data from two academic hospitals, researchers trained a binary classifier on M-mode (motion-mode) images extracted from B-mode (brightness-mode) videos.

This multicenter study aims to automate the crucial differentiation between A-line (normal parenchyma) and B-line (abnormal parenchyma) patterns on lung ultrasound (LUS) using deep learning. By training a customized neural network on a large dataset of labeled LUS images, the researchers achieved impressive results.

Our vision is to transform lung health diagnostics by making automated, radiation-free lung imaging universally accessible. We aim to empower healthcare providers and laypersons alike to perform accurate lung assessments anywhere in the world.

Leveraging the synergy of lung ultrasound technology and state-of-the-art AI, we see a future where high-quality lung diagnostics are no longer confined to hospitals but are integral to diverse settings such as military operations, aerospace missions, and emergency response teams, significantly improving global health outcomes.

At Deep Breathe, our mission is to revolutionize lung health diagnostics through the power of artificial intelligence and advanced medical imaging. We are dedicated to making lung imaging universally accessible with cutting-edge, radiation-free solutions that anyone can use, anywhere. As pioneers in vendor-agnostic lung imaging technology, we create solutions that work seamlessly across all ultrasound hardware.

Our commitment to innovation, supported by strategic partnerships with leading ultrasound manufacturers and other key industries, drives us to continually advance our technology. Guided by a relentless curiosity and a clinically directed approach to engineering and AI, we aim to transform lung diagnostics, bringing high-quality care to diverse and challenging environments around the world, ensuring a healthier future for generations to come.
