as well, our heart and major blood vessels. we know that the sorts of techniques can be very good at picking up the early signs of premature brain ageing which may predict dementia in the future. these sorts of techniques could potentially doing the same as being an early warning sign for future offence like stroke, and heart attacks and so on. we offence like stroke, and heart attacks and so on. offence like stroke, and heart attacks and so on. we have been talkint attacks and so on. we have been talking about attacks and so on. we have been talking about al attacks and so on. we have been talking about al being attacks and so on. we have been talking about al being used - attacks and so on. we have been talking about al being used in i attacks and so on. we have been i talking about al being used in other sort of health conditions including potentially scanning brains. how advancedis potentially scanning brains. how advanced is al when it comes to solving some of those long st
the heart age could be calculated from simple ecg measurements of the heart s electrical activity. the researchers say in the scientific journal nature communications that it could be done quite easily in gp surgeries. we need to supercharge research, research like this, which can open new biological avenues into new treatments, potentially drugs, that could identify somebody who seems to have features of premature ageing of their heart and their blood vessels, and actually be able to treat it with drugs that mean you never develop heart diseases at all. how fantastic would that be? and here is the next step. 256 sensors are measuring heart activity. it produces what is, in effect, a digital copy of his heart, showing how the electrical activity is causing it to beat. these digital experiments will transform the way we conduct health care. it will be possible for scientists
the effects of ageing. and these sorts of scans can quantify that and see how effective those treatments might be in the future. the heart age could be calculated from simple ecg measurements of the heart s electrical activity. the researchers say in the scientific journal nature communications that it could be done quite easily in gp surgeries. we need to supercharge research, research like this, which can open new biological avenues into new treatments, potentially drugs, that could identify somebody who seems to have features of premature ageing of their heart and their blood vessels, and actually be able to treat it with drugs that mean you never develop heart diseases at all. how fantastic would that be? and here is the next step. 256 sensors are measuring heart activity. it produces what is, in effect, a digital copy of his heart, showing how the electrical activity is causing it to beat. these digital experiments
will transform the way we conduct health care. it will be possible for scientists to use these resources to test the impact of drugs, new cardiac devices, lifestyle interventions, and importantly, to predict each individual s personalised risk. heart research is now in the digital world, with al and machine learning techniques already developing the next generation of treatments to keep us healthierfor longer. pallab ghosh, bbc news. and professor declan o regan who was featured in that reportjoins me now. professor, how is this going to change the way heart conditions can be treated? i change the way heart conditions can be treated? ~ ., change the way heart conditions can be treated? ,, ., ., be treated? i think one of the interesting be treated? i think one of the interesting things be treated? i think one of the interesting things from - be treated? i think one of the interesting things from this . interesting things from this research is we found that people age at different
