Researchers from Edith Cowan University developed software that rapidly analyzes bone density scans to detect abdominal aortic calcification (AAC), a predictor of cardiovascular events and other health risks. The software processed images with 80% agreement with experts and could revolutionize early disease detection during routine clinical practice. Bone density scans can now quickly identify an […]
