The study of associations between an individual's age and imaging and non-imaging data is an active research area that attempts to aid understanding of the effects and patterns of aging. In this work we have conducted a supervoxel-wise…
Cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death globally, is an age-related disease. Understanding the morphological and functional changes of the heart during ageing is a key scientific question, the answer to which will help us define…
Age prediction is an important part of medical assessments and research. It can aid in detecting diseases as well as abnormal ageing by highlighting potential discrepancies between chronological and biological age. To improve understanding…
The traditional manual age estimation method is crucial labor based on many kinds of the X-Ray image. Some current studies have shown that lateral cephalometric(LC) images can be used to estimate age. However, these methods are based on…
Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) provides 3D information on obstructive coronary artery disease, but cannot fully visualize high-resolution features within the vessel wall. Intravascular imaging, in contrast, can spatially…
Aging is a highly complex and heterogeneous process that progresses at different rates across individuals, making biological age (BA) a more accurate indicator of physiological decline than chronological age. While previous studies have…
We propose new methods for the prediction of 5-year mortality in elderly individuals using chest computed tomography (CT). The methods consist of a classifier that performs this prediction using a set of features extracted from the CT image…
The concept of biological age (BA), although important in clinical practice, is hard to grasp mainly due to the lack of a clearly defined reference standard. For specific applications, especially in pediatrics, medical image data are used…
Bone age assessment gives us evidence to analyze the children growth status and the rejuvenation involved chronological and biological ages. All the previous works consider left-hand X-ray image of a child in their works. In this paper, we…
Background: Photoplethysmography (PPG), increasingly available through wearable devices, provides a non-invasive means of monitoring human hemodynamics. In this study, we introduce artificial intelligence-derived photoplethysmography…
Age estimation has attracted attention for its various medical applications. There are many studies on human age estimation from biomedical images. However, there is no research done on mammograms for age estimation, as far as we know. The…
Alzheimer's Disease and normal aging are both characterized by brain atrophy. The question of whether AD-related brain atrophy represents accelerated aging or a neurodegeneration process distinct from that in normal aging remains…
An accurate assessment of the cardiovascular system and prediction of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are crucial. Measured cardiac blood flow data provide insights about patient-specific hemodynamics, where many specialized techniques have…
In recent years, there are various methods of estimating Biological Age (BA) have been developed. Especially with the development of machine learning (ML), there are more and more types of BA predictions, and the accuracy has been greatly…
Normative aging trends of the brain can serve as an important reference in the assessment of neurological structural disorders. Such models are typically developed from longitudinal brain image data -- follow-up data of the same subject…
We present the findings of an experimental study whereby we correlate the changes in the morphology of the photoplethysmography (PPG) signal to healthy aging. Under this pretext, we estimate the biological age of a person as well as the age…
In this study, we propose the use of persistent homology -- specifically Betti curves for brain age prediction and for distinguishing between healthy and pathological aging. The proposed framework is applied to 100 structural MRI scans from…
Accurate bone strength prediction is essential for assessing fracture risk, particularly in aging populations and individuals with osteoporosis. Bone imaging has evolved from X-rays and DXA to clinical computed tomography (CT), and now to…
Computed Tomography Coronary Angiography (CTCA) is a non-invasive method to evaluate coronary artery anatomy and disease. CTCA is ideal for geometry reconstruction to create virtual models of coronary arteries. To our knowledge there is no…
Sex-based differences in cardiovascular disease are well documented, yet the precise nature and extent of these discrepancies in cardiac anatomy remain incompletely understood. Traditional scaling models often fail to capture the interplay…
