AI Now May Predict Your Biological Age And If You’ll Survive Cancer — With A Face Scan
Researchers built an AI tool that can predict cancer patients’ survival chances by using a single photograph of their face, complementing doctors’ gut instincts to potentially guide treatment decisions, especially when medical data is scarce.
System can estimate a person’s biological age and predict chances of cancer survival from a single photograph Doctors have developed an artificial intelligence tool that can predict a cancer patient’s chances of survival from a single photograph of their face.
An AI model trained on 34,000 facial images can predict cancer survival, researchers at Mass General Brigham in Boston say. They developed the model as a way to help doctors 'estimate physical reserve and frailty before recommending intensive treatments,' Dr. Raymond Mak says.

A photo of your face could tell doctors how long you have left to live. The breakthrough is just the latest science fiction-adjacent development courtesy of AI ’s immense capacity for crunching data. In the new study, published in Lancet Digital Health , researchers describe how they leveraged a nov…
By Jacqueline Howard, CNN (CNN) — A simple selfie could hold surprising clues to your overall health and longevity, especially among people with cancer.Researchers at Mass General Brigham in Boston have developed artificial intelligence models that they say can predict a cancer patient’s biological …
Researchers at Mass General Brigham Cancer Institute have developed an AI tool that determines your biological age and your chances of surviving challenging cancer treatment – all from a single photograph of your face.
A new artificial intelligence model can measure someone’s biological age and predict their chances of surviving cancer just by looking at an image of the person’s face, […]
