- AI helps doctors estimate your heart’s ‘age’
Researchers at Mayo Clinic are using AI to analyze echocardiograms and determine a person’s heart age compared to their chronological age. Dr. Francisco Lopez-Jimenez highlights that a higher heart age correlates with shorter lifespan, while a younger heart age is linked to better health outcomes. Lifestyle changes like exercise and stress reduction can quickly reduce heart age.
- AI helps doctors estimate your heart’s ‘age’
Researchers at Mayo Clinic are using AI to analyze echocardiograms and determine a person's 'heart age' compared to their chronological age. The technology identifies individuals at higher risk of early mortality if their heart age exceeds their actual age, while those with younger heart ages face lower risks. Lifestyle changes like exercise and stress reduction can rapidly narrow the gap between heart age and chronological age.
- AI tool measures ‘heart age’
Experts at Mayo Clinic use AI to analyze echocardiograms and estimate a patient’s 'heart age,' comparing it to their actual age. A heart age older than actual age signals the need for lifestyle changes like improving sleep, diet, exercise, and stress management to reduce inflammation and lower heart age.
- AI tool measures ‘heart age’
Experts at the Mayo Clinic are using artificial intelligence to analyze echocardiograms and estimate a patient's 'heart age' to assess cardiovascular health. A heart age older than actual age prompts lifestyle adjustments, such as improving sleep, diet, exercise, and stress management, to reduce inflammation and improve health.
