Overview:
This session examines how AI is scaling sports medicine to promote longevity by advancing musculoskeletal and cardiovascular care. Topics include AI-driven early diagnostics, precision imaging, and personalized treatment/training planning. We’ll highlight its role in supporting radiologists, orthopedic specialists and cardiologists in risk stratification and protection of life-long musculoskeletal function-key to maintaining mobility, cardiovascular health, and extending health span for all.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe the connection between musculoskeletal function, mobility, and cardiovascular health in relation to healthy aging and
extended health span. - Understand how AI can scale sports medicine by supporting risk stratification, prevention, early diagnostics, precision imaging,and
personalized treatment/training plans for broader populations. - Identify key barriers to AI adoption in clinical practice, particularly in musculoskeletal and cardiovascular careaimed at promoting healthy aging.
