Unlocking Brain Secrets with AI and MRI

The human brain is a complex organ that changes over time. Understanding these changes is crucial for identifying and treating brain disorders. One way to do this is by using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. These scans create detailed pictures of the brain. When combined with artificial intelligence (AI), MRI scans can reveal even more about brain structu...

Predicting Brain Age: A New Approach Using Deep Learning

As we get older, our brains shrink, and our thinking skills deteriorate. Scientists have found a new way to study this process using brain age prediction. This study introduces a special deep learning model that can guess someone's age from brain scans. Researchers used data from almost 17, 000 healthy people between 45 and 82 years old from a UK database. They desig...

Guessing Brain Age: Why Two Scans Are Better Than One

Ever wished we could tell someone's age just by looking at their brain scan? Scientists often use T1-weighted structural MRI to do this. But a new study mixed things up by combining structural MRI and diffusion MRI. They created a smart model that could see both the big brain features and tiny details. This model was tested on people from two big groups: the Human C...
