HeartFocus Education is your go-to AI-powered app, designed to make mastering heart echoes simple, effective, and accessible to any health practitioner, with no prior echo experience needed. HeartFocus Education is compatible with Butterfly IQ+ and IQ3 Ultrasound systems.
It supports the acquisitions of 10 echocardiographic views: Parasternal Long-Axis (PLAX), Parasternal Short-Axis at the Aortic Valve (PSAX-AV), Parasternal Short-Axis at the Mitral Valve (PSAX-MV), Parasternal Short-Axis at the Papillary Muscle (PSAX-PM), Apical 4-Chamber (A4C), Apical 5-Chamber (A5C), Apical 2-Chamber (A2C), Apical 3-Chamber (A3C), Subcostal 4-Chamber (SC-4C), and Subcostal Inferior Vena Cava (SC-IVC).
HeartFocus Education supports your ultrasound training with 4 main AI-powered features:
1 - Live Guidance: This feature provides real-time cues to the user on how to move the probe on the patient’s chest to obtain diagnostic-quality images. It emulates how an expert sonographer would move the probe to obtain diagnostic-quality clips.
2 - Diagnostic-quality view detection: This feature detects real-time diagnostic quality images and informs the user to hold his probe position so that HeartFocus can perform an automatic recording.
3 - Auto Record: This feature triggers an automatic recording of a clip when the quality is predicted to be of diagnostic quality for a sufficient amount of time. This feature emulates how a sonographer would identify diagnostic-quality clips and record them.
4 - Best-Effort Record: This feature continually assesses clip quality while the user is scanning and, if the user cannot obtain a clip sufficient for an Auto Record, the software allows the user to record the highest quality clip obtained so far retrospectively. It emulates how a sonographer would identify the best diagnostic-quality clips retrospectively.
