A deep learning approach to using wearable seismocardiography (SCG) for diagnosing aortic valve stenosis and predicting aortic hemodynamics obtained by 4D flow MRI
In this paper, we explored the use of deep learning for the prediction of aortic flow metrics obtained using 4D flow MRI using wearable seismocardiography (SCG) devices. 4D flow MRI provides a comprehensive assessment of cardiovascular hemodynamics, but it is costly and time-consuming. We hypothesized that deep learning could be used to identify pathological changes in blood flow, such as elevated peak systolic velocity Vmax in patients with heart valve diseases, from SCG signals. We also investigated the ability of this deep learning technique to differentiate between patients diagnosed with aortic valve stenosis (AS), non-AS patients with a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), non-AS patients with a mechanical aortic valve (MAV), and healthy subjects with a normal tricuspid aortic valve (TAV). In a study of 77 subjects who underwent same-day 4D flow MRI and SCG, we found that the Vmax values obtained using deep learning and SCGs were in good agreement with those obtained by 4D flow MRI. Additionally, subjects with TAV, BAV, MAV, and AS could be classified with ROC-AUC values of 92%, 95%, 81%, and 83%, respectively. This suggests that SCG obtained using low-cost wearable electronics may be used as a supplement to 4D flow MRI exams or as a screening tool for aortic valve disease.
