Mass General Brigham Researchers Unveil AI Model to Predict Biological Age and Cancer Survival from Facial Images.

A landmark study published in The Lancet Digital Health by researchers at Mass General Brigham introduces FAHR-Face, a deep-learning foundation model trained on over 40 million facial images. This AI framework powers two clinical tools: FAHR-FaceAge, which estimates biological age, and FAHR-FaceSurvival, which evaluates cancer survival risk, demonstrating a correlation with 90-day mortality rates in radiation oncology patients.
