Researchers are developing a new artificial intelligence tool that can recognize abnormal sounds in children's hearts, lungs, and stomachs to help doctors catch illnesses early. The AI system will be trained on recordings of normal and abnormal body sounds from thousands of children, then tested to see how accurately it can identify problems compared to standard imaging tests like ultrasounds and X-rays.
Many common childhood illnesses—like heart defects, pneumonia, and digestive problems—are traditionally diagnosed using expensive imaging equipment that requires specialized equipment and trained technicians. This study hopes to create a simpler, more accessible AI tool that could screen for these conditions using just sound recordings, making early detection faster and easier in more settings.

If you qualify, researchers will collect sound recordings of your heart, breathing, and belly sounds using a specialized device. Your participation will also involve having standard imaging tests (like ultrasounds and X-rays) so doctors can compare what the AI system detects versus what these standard tests show. This is a one-time data collection study with no follow-up visits required.
