Saturday, 23 August 2025

Tags:

PhD student Arooba Maqsood is leading a research project at ECU to develop a machine learning algorithm that estimates visceral fat from routine bone density scans. Featured in Medical Xpress, the study aims to provide a quick, affordable, and non-invasive method for identifying hidden fat linked to serious health conditions. The innovation could revolutionise obesity screening and improve global health outcomes.
