Summary
This study introduces two models for detecting and localizing myocardial infarction (MI) using electrocardiograms (ECGs). The proposed methods show high accuracy, offering a promising tool for early cardiovascular disease diagnosis.
Area of Science:
- Cardiology
- Medical Imaging
- Artificial Intelligence
Background:
- Myocardial infarction (MI) causes irreversible heart damage, necessitating early detection.
- Automatic MI detection and localization from electrocardiograms (ECGs) are challenging clinical problems.
Purpose of the Study:
- To develop and evaluate novel deep learning models for accurate MI detection and localization.
- To improve the precision of MI diagnosis using ECG data.
Main Methods:
- Proposed two models: MFB-SENET for MI detection and MFB-DMIL for MI localization.
- MFB-DMIL integrates multi-instance learning with domain knowledge, handcrafted features, and a novel 'lead-loss' function.
- Utilized Grad-CAM for visualizing model decision-making processes.
Main Results:
- On the PTB database, MI detection accuracy reached 93.88% and localization accuracy reached 67.17%.
- On the PTB-XL database, MI detection accuracy was 94.89% and localization accuracy was 85.83%.
- Performance was comparable or superior to existing state-of-the-art algorithms.
Conclusions:
- The combined deep learning and domain knowledge approach is effective and reliable for MI diagnosis.
- The proposed models show potential as efficient tools to aid physicians in diagnosing MI.
- This work advances automated analysis of ECG for cardiovascular disease detection.
