The study population will be recruited from appointed patients at the Clinic of Cardiology, St. Olavs Hospital. After being informed about the study, all patients giving informed consent and meeting the eligibility requirements will undergo their standard clinical echocardiographic exam performed by a sonographer at the clinic. Two additional examinations will then be performed by a different sonographer and an expert cardiologist, respectively.~In one of the study arms the sonographer randomized to perform the second exam will use the AI algorithm (intervention).
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of artificial intelligence algorithms on image quality in echocardiography.
