Purpose of Review Echocardiography is an indispensable tool in diagnostic cardiology and is fundamental to clinical care. Significant advances in cardiovascular imaging technology paralleled by rapid growth in electronic medical records, miniaturized devices, real-time monitoring, and wearable devices using body sensor network technology have led to the development of complex data. Recent Findings The intricate nature of these data can be overwhelming and exceed the capabilities of current statistical software. Machine learning (ML), a branch of artificial intelligence (AI), can help health care providers navigate through this complex labyrinth of information and unravel hidden discoveries. Furthermore, ML algorithms can help automate several tasks in echocardiography and clinical care. Summary ML can serve as a valuable diagnostic tool for physicians in the field of echocardiography. In addition, it can help expand the capabilities of research and discover alternative pathways in medical management. In this review article, we describe the role of AI and ML in echocardiography.
