DoHAC 22/23 1.1 Health Policy Research and Analysis
Grant Program:
Medical Research Future Fund
Grant Activity:
Investigating genetic and lifestyle determinants of abdominal aortic calcification, and their relationship with cardiovascular disease
Purpose:
This project will use a newly developed state-of-the-art algorithm to detect and quantify a novel structural measure of blood vessel disease from widely-available bone density machine images. Using these results in large studies with detailed genetic and lifestyle information, we will explore why and how disease occurs. Ultimately, enabling new and better approaches to target genes, lifestyle factors and chronic diseases causing cardiovascular hospitalisations and deaths in older Australians.
