QuLF-CT positivity is associated with major adverse cardiovascular events in humans (HRs 1.21 (95% CI 1.08-1.36) to 1.69 (95% CI 1.45-1.97) across attenuation thresholds; all p < 0.01).

AI liver fat measure linked to overlooked cardiovascular risk

People flagged only by AI had cardiovascular-event hazard ratios of 1.21–1.69 versus those normal on both measures; ratios above one indicate higher risk.People flagged only by AI had cardiovascular-event hazard ratios of 1.21–1.69 versus those normal on both measures; ratios above one indicate higher risk.
