Deep-learning-based cardiovascular risk stratification using coronary artery calcium scores predicted from retinal photographs

Summary: Background: Coronary artery calcium (CAC) score is a clinically validated marker of cardiovascular disease risk. We developed and validated a novel cardiovascular risk stratification system based on deep-learning-predicted CAC from retinal photographs. Methods: We used 216 152 retinal phot...
