AI reads chest CTs to estimate the age of five major organs, tested on 35,000 cases

- An AI model reads chest CT scans and assigns an individual "age" to the lungs, heart, aorta, coronary arteries, and pulmonary artery.
- It was run on 35,000 simulations, suggesting aging biomarkers are hiding in routine chest CTs — one scan can score multiple organs' aging.
