COMPUTER-AIDED DETECTION AND IDENTIFICATION OF IMPLANTED CARDIAC DEVICES ON CHEST RADIOGRAPHY UTILIZING DEEP CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORKS, A FORM OF MACHINE LEARNING

Abstract

Identification of implanted cardiac devices is paramount to effective care of patients in the emergency department, operating room, radiology suite, and electrophysiology laboratory. However, without the knowledge of a specific device manufacturer, programming and interrogation procedures cannot be
