| contents | Cardiovascular diseases, particularly heart failure, are a leading cause of death globally. The early detection of heart failure through routine echocardiogram screenings is often impeded by the high cost and labor-intensive nature of these procedures, a barrier that can mean the difference between life and death. This paper presents ConFormer, a novel deep learning model designed to automate the estimation of Ejection Fraction (EF) and Left Ventricular Wall Thickness from echocardiograms. The implementation of ConFormer has the potential to enhance preventative cardiology by enabling cost-effective, accessible, and comprehensive heart health monitoring, thereby saving countless lives. The source code is available at https://github.com/Aether111/ConFormer. |
