The team was inspired by the urgent need for scalable solutions in detecting valvular heart disease (VHD), which often remains undiagnosed until advanced stages. By leveraging AI Phonoscopy, they aimed to transform the standard smartphone into a powerful diagnostic tool that overcomes the limitations of traditional auscultation. The primary goal was to make early, precise detection accessible at scale, allowing for timely intervention. As the project evolved, the focus shifted toward perfecting the AI’s ability to identify subtle acoustic patterns of heart valve pathologies, ensuring the American version serves as a reliable first line of defense in cardiac health monitoring.
