  • Biological Age and Other AI Tools in Preventive Cardiology

    Vascular age is impacted by factors that determine the aging of the vascular system — the heart, arteries and veins. These factors might predispose people to develop heart attacks, peripheral vascular disease or strokes.

    Joining us today to discuss efforts to better describe and measure vascular age is Francisco Lopez-Jimenez, M.D., M.B.A., chair of Preventive Cardiology at Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota.

    Specific topics discussed:

    • The concept of vascular age explained
    • Use of electrocardiogram (ECG) to determine vascular age
    • Recommendations to reduce or reverse patients' vascular age
    • Use of ECG to identify conditions it was not originally intended to identify
    • Future impact of artificial intelligence in medicine
