A recent study indicates that an AI tool can analyze routine mammogram scans for breast cancer screening and predict heart disease risk in women.

Researchers say AI could help save the disproportionate number of women who have undiagnosed and untreated heart disease.

The team used AI to analyze the amount of calcium deposit in the arteries of the breast tissue, known to be a risk factor for heart disease.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) can predict the risk of serious heart disease from breast cancer scans (mammograms).
