Researchers have used machine learning to assess bone density scans for calcification in the aorta, the body’s main artery. They say their method could be used to predict future cardiovascular and ...

The build-up of calcium in a major blood vessel is linked with a 39 per cent higher risk of serious falls in older women, new Edith Cowan University (ECU) research has found. This calcium build-up, ...

If you’re someone who’s at risk for developing osteoporosis, you’re probably well-accustomed to receiving regular bone density tests. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA or DXA) is a radiologic ...

Common bone density scans can detect a predictor of cardiovascular health risk -- a process which can now be done a LOT faster. Thanks to artificial intelligence, we will soon be able to predict our ...

Spectrum Dynamics has developed a nuclear imaging system that can dramatically reduce the time medical scans take, and a patient’s exposure to radiation. Children can spend much less time in nuclear ...

New research at IDS-TILDA at the School of Nursing and Midwifery has led to improved outcomes for people with intellectual disabilities who are unable to access a traditional DXA bone scan.
