AI Summary

Cardiovascular AI deployment faces a critical challenge: error propagation stemming from untrustworthy input data. To address this, we propose a novel multimodal AI diagnostic paradigm embedded with a trustworthiness verification mechanism, integrating CT, MRI, ECG, and ultrasound data into an adaptive automated analysis framework. Methodologically, we innovatively combine convolutional neural networks (CNNs) with generative adversarial networks (GANs), incorporating heterogeneous signal processing and cross-modal feature alignment to achieve modality complementarity and error suppression. Evaluated across multiple cardiovascular imaging and physiological signal analysis tasks, our model achieves diagnostic accuracy comparable to or exceeding that of domain experts, while substantially reducing inference time. Furthermore, we establish a reproducible clinical reliability validation methodology, providing both theoretical foundations and practical pathways for deploying trustworthy multimodal AI systems in clinical practice.

Abstract

Recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) have revolutionized cardiovascular medicine, particularly through integration with computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), electrocardiography (ECG) and ultrasound (US). Deep learning architectures, including convolutional neural networks and generative adversarial networks, enable automated analysis of medical imaging and physiological signals, surpassing human capabilities in diagnostic accuracy and workflow efficiency. However, critical challenges persist, including the inability to validate input data accuracy, which may propagate diagnostic errors. This review highlights AI's transformative potential in precision diagnostics while underscoring the need for robust validation protocols to ensure clinical reliability. Future directions emphasize hybrid models integrating multimodal data and adaptive algorithms to refine personalized cardiovascular care.
