Deep learning is a branch of artificial intelligence that holds a lot of promise for point-of-care ultrasound, but we don’t have much data on how it performs. The fearless investigators in this fascinating study train a deep learning algorithm to recognize sonographic anatomy of the upper extremity and then pit it against expert POCUS users to see who can interpret the images most accurately!
