Winston-Salem hospital uses AI to help diagnose cardiac disease

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (WTVD) -- A North Carolina hospital is now utilizing artificial intelligence to diagnose cardiac patients.

In Winston-Salem, the Cardiology Unit at Novant Health Forsyth Medical Center said the new technology is breaking barriers in patient care.

Doctors capture images with a probe and use software to gain deeper insights into the heart.

The hospital has used this AI software for at least five years to analyze cardiac strain, enabling early cardiac disease diagnosis.
