- Additional information
- In this work, for the first time, cardiovascular MR images from an unprecedentedly large population-wide dataset (UK Biobank) are analysed using an AI pipeline. Output reports a comprehensive range of structural and functional phenotypes for heart and aorta across 26,893 participants and explores how these phenotypes vary according to sex, age and cardiovascular risk factors. This study is highly significant because it illustrates how population-based cardiac and aortic imaging phenotypes obtained with AI can be used to better define cardiovascular risk as well as heart-brain health interactions, highlighting new opportunities for studying disease mechanisms and developing image-based biomarkers.
