Fully Automated Anatomy Labeling for Intracardiac Echocardiography Using Deep Learning

Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) is increasingly being used to guide electrophysiologic (EP) procedures but requires a considerable learning curve. ICE images collected from 2 separate institutions (605 EP procedures, 196,768 images) were used to develop an automated deep learning-based algorithm to detect anatomic structures from the right atrium. Fifteen of 21 anatomic structures were correctly identified with >70% precision and recall. Mislabeling of one anatomic structure for another was rare. This fully automated anatomy labeling algorithm can serve as an education tool or can be used as a navigation tool to guide ICE operators in EP procedures.
