Experts from the Gerontology Center and the Russian Academy of Sciences have established that the state of the human carotid artery tells about the biological age of a person with a high degree of accuracy.

      The uniqueness of the new method is that almost any modern clinic can use it. The innovative technique is based on a special artificial intelligence system, which enables doctors to find and compare the differences in how the circulatory system changes in the process of aging. A single vessel is able to tell about the biological age with the accuracy of 6 to 7 years. Scientists assume that a comprehensive analysis of the carotid artery and a group of vessels will give a very exact picture of a person’s biological age as well as detect or even prevent numerous hidden health issues.
