In his new book, Super Agers: An Evidence Based Approach to Longevity , renowned cardiologist Eric Topol highlights a revolutionary development in heart disease prevention: the use of AI to predict an individual’s risk of a fatal heart attack years before symptoms occur. As Dr. Topol notes, AI-enhanced imaging of the fat surrounding the coronary arteries now enables doctors to see inflammation, the previously invisible underlying driver of heart attacks and stroke.

Topol predicts American cardiologists will soon use these AI tools to identify high-risk individuals long before conventional methods detect disease, potentially saving tens of thousands of lives.

How radical is this development? Just consider. For decades, our approach to coronary artery disease (CAD) has revolved arou
