Retinal scan model identified existing brain blood vessel disease

Detection scores were 0.95 in internal testing and 0.94 in external testing, where higher scores mean better separation of people with and without disease.Detection scores were 0.95 in internal testing and 0.94 in external testing, where higher scores mean better separation of people with and without disease.
