Heart tracing model better flags high levels of heart scarring
It scored 0.674 versus 0.597 for a clinical model on a measure of how well it distinguished people with high heart muscle scarring.It scored 0.674 versus 0.597 for a clinical model on a measure of how well it distinguished people with high heart muscle scarring.
Cohort · 8,048 peopleBiomarkers
Who was studied8,048 individuals in the UK Biobank, against a comprehensive clinical model
What changedAUROC for classifying high fibrosis burden was 0.674 with the model versus 0.597 for a clinical model
The catchThe model estimated a scan-based proxy rather than measuring scar tissue directly
