AI, face photos may predict cancer survival: Mass General Brigham study

Giles Bruce / beckershospitalreview - Using multiple photos from across a patient’s course of treatment in the FaceAge AI tool may be an even better predictor of survival than a single photo alone, a new Mass General Brigham study found. Researchers behind FaceAge, which uses AI to analyze a …

AI Summary: An AI model trained on clinical cohorts at Mass General Brigham can estimate biological aging from simple facial photos and links accelerated facial aging to poorer cancer survival. The research suggests noninvasive image-based signals could complement standard prognostic markers, offering a surprising, low-cost way to flag higher-risk patients earlier.
