Predicting brain age with deep learning from raw imaging data results in a reliable and heritable biomarker
Open accessAbstract
&NA; Machine learning analysis of neuroimaging data can accurately predict chronological age in healthy people. Deviations from healthy brain ageing have been associated with cognitive impairment and disease. Here we sought to further establish the credentials of ‘brain‐predicted age’ as a biomarker of individual differences in the brain ageing process, using a predictive modelling approach based on deep learning, and specifically convolutional neural networks (CNN), and applied to both pre‐processed and raw T1‐weighted MRI data. Firstly, we aimed to demonstrate the accuracy of CNN brain‐predicted age using a large dataset of healthy adults (N = 2001). Next, we sought to establish the heritability of brain‐predicted age using a sample of monozygotic and dizygotic female twins (N = 62). Thirdly, we examined the test‐retest and multi‐centre reliability of brain‐predicted age using two samples (within‐scanner N = 20; between‐scanner N = 11). CNN brain‐predicted ages were generated and compared to a Gaussian Process Regression (GPR) approach, on all datasets. Input data were grey matter (GM) or white matter (WM) volumetric maps generated by Statistical Parametric Mapping (SPM) or raw data. CNN accurately predicted chronological age using GM (correlation between brain‐predicted age and chronological age r = 0.96, mean absolute error [MAE] = 4.16 years) and raw (r = 0.94, MAE = 4.65 years) data. This was comparable to GPR brain‐predicted age using GM data (r = 0.95, MAE = 4.66 years). Brain‐predicted age was a heritable phenotype for all models and input data (h2 ≥ 0.5). Brain‐predicted age showed high test‐retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] = 0.90–0.99). Multi‐centre reliability was more variable within high ICCs for GM (0.83–0.96) and poor‐moderate levels for WM and raw data (0.51–0.77). Brain‐predicted age represents an accurate, highly reliable and genetically‐influenced phenotype, that has potential to be used as a biomarker of brain ageing. Moreover, age predictions can be accurately generated on raw T1‐MRI data, substantially reducing computation time for novel data, bringing the process closer to giving real‐time information on brain health in clinical settings. HighlightsChronological age can be accurately predicted using convolutional neural networks.Age predicted is accurate even using raw structural neuroimaging data.Brain‐predicted age can be generated in a clinically applicable timeframe.Brain‐predicted age is significantly heritable.Brain‐predicted age is highly reliable, both within and between scanners.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-09 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
