AI tool can identify risk of heart attack 'years before it strikes'

An artificial intelligence tool that can identify people at risk of a heart attack years before it strikes is now ready to be rolled out in the NHS.

The CaRi-Heart tool, developed by Caristo Diagnostics and based on research funded by the British Heart Foundation (BHF), predicts possible heart disease using routine heart scans.

The technology was validated in a BHF study with 4000 patients who were followed up for nine years after their original coronary CT angiogram
