New AI tool detects heart inflammation missed by standard blood tests

A US study found coronary inflammation in 42.9% of asymptomatic, low-risk individuals, a condition missed by standard blood tests.

Field
medicine and diagnostics
What they did
Researchers used artificial intelligence to analyze heart CT scans in asymptomatic adults with no known heart disease, finding coronary inflammation in 42.9% of participants.
Why it matters
This is important because standard blood tests and traditional cardiovascular risk factors cannot detect this inflammation, which is an early sign of heart problems.
