How Old is Your Heart?
Doctors know our hearts can be older or younger than our actual age. A new tool aims to reveal exactly by how much.
A new AI tool reveals how much your heart ages prematurely because of a lack of exercise, poor diets, drinking and smoking. Doctors know our hearts can be older or younger than we actually are, but this new tool tells them exactly by how much. The aim is to find ways to reverse heart ageing and so reduce the risks of many age-related conditions such as stroke and heart disease. In this episode of our 5 Questions On podcast, the 麻豆社's Science Correspondent, Pallab Ghosh, explains how the tool works, what the assessment involved and crucially, how he got on.
