Precise ECG diagnosis and validation of educational utility for acute myocardial infarction using deep learning and explainable artificial intelligence
AI can diagnose heart attacks from ECG tracings while highlighting exactly which patterns matter, making it useful for both patient care and training future doctors.
A deep learning model for automated ECG-based acute MI diagnosis was developed and its XAI outputs validated for educational utility, demonstrating that AI attention maps correctly highlight pathological ECG features relevant to clinical training. The dual validation of diagnostic accuracy and educational applicability provides a practical framework for integrating AI-assisted ECG diagnosis into real-world clinical and training environments.
