Abstract

BACKGROUND: Chest radiographs are widely available and cost-effective; however, their usefulness as a biomarker of ageing using multi-institutional data remains underexplored. The aim of this study was to develop a biomarker of ageing from chest radiography and examine the correlation between the biomarker and diseases.
