George Wright
Summary
A British research team has conducted a study showing that AI-powered stethoscopes can detect three heart conditions — heart failure, heart valve disease, and abnormal heart rhythms — in seconds. The technology, which builds on the original stethoscope invented in 1816, could enable faster diagnosis and earlier treatment for patients. Experts describe the innovation as a potential "game-changer" in cardiac care.
