Promising but preliminary

A clinical decision support system for ECG diagnosis: Surpassing commercial standards through dual-stream feature fusion.

Automated electrocardiogram (ECG) interpretation is essential for clinical efficiency, yet many existing deep learning (DL) models are perceived as "black boxes" and lack direct benchmarking against established commercial standards. To foster clinician trust and support reimbursement justification, AI systems must demonstrate not only superior accuracy but also alignment with established clinical criteria.
