Artificial intelligence could be used to predict if a person is at risk of having a heart attack up to 10 years in the future, a study has found.
- The technology could save thousands of lives while improving treatment for almost half of patients, researchers at the University of Oxford said.
- “Our study found that some patients presenting in hospital with chest pain – who are often reassured and sent back home – are at high risk of having a heart attack in the next decade, even in the absence of any sign of disease in their heart arteries.”
