contents While echocardiography and MRI are clinical standards for evaluating cardiac structure, their use is limited by cost and accessibility.We introduce a direct classification framework that predicts severe left ventricular hypertrophy from chest X-rays, without relying on anatomical measurements or demographic inputs. Our approach achieves high AUROC and AUPRC, and employs Mutual Information Neural Estimation to quantify feature expressivity. This reveals clinically meaningful attribute encoding and supports transparent model interpretation.
