By measuring the movement of the heart's structure during each heartbeat, the artificial intelligence was able to understand the abnormalities that can result in a patient's heart to fail.

"This is the first time computers have interpreted heart scans to accurately predict how long patients will live," said Declan O'Regan, lead author from the MRC London Institute of Medical Sciences (LMS) at Imperial College London.

"It could transform the way doctors treat heart patients."


"The computer performs the analysis in seconds and simultaneously interprets data from imaging, blood tests and other investigations without any human intervention," said co-author Tim Dawes, who developed the algorithms.
