As previously discussed in “Connecting Brain and Body Aging,” your body ages alongside you. ...

As the years pass, you may have started to notice changes in yourself, and it’s not just in your outward  appearance. You might have more health issues, go to your doctor for more testing for diseases and  conditions that wouldn’t have been a major concern in the past, and you may not feel as sharp as you  used to be when you were younger. Your organs are also aging and losing function they once had before.  Thanks to the AIM Medical Imaging patients who consented to research participation, Dr. Cyrus A. Raji  and Dr. Raj Attariwala analyzed over 7000 Whole-Body MRI scans to investigate the link between age,  body organs and the brain, and how the risk for developing certain health conditions—especially  Alzheimer’s disease—increases as you age.  What does the research say about aging and your organs?  Analyses for organ, fat and muscle segmentation were performed on 7,149 whole-body MRIs  from patients ranging from age 18 to 97, and 96 brain regions were segmented from the scans  of 134 participants using deep learning. These results were then quantified and compared.  The research found that, as age increases, the gray and white matter volumes of the brain  decreased. While cerebral ventricle volume increased, the volumes of the brain lobes and  ...
