00:00Migraine affects roughly 1 billion people worldwide, but there's still no blood test to diagnose it.
00:06Doctors rely entirely on how patients describe their symptoms.
00:09Now, new AI research suggests that could change.
00:12Researchers at Norway's NTNU used artificial intelligence to analyze health data from more than 43,000 people
00:19and found that migraine may leave a biological fingerprint spread throughout the whole body.
00:24The AI model combined genetics, clinical details, and environmental factors to reliably tell the difference between people who have migraine
00:32and people who don't.
00:34Researchers say inconsistent migraine diagnoses are a major problem right now.
00:38And if the diagnosis is wrong, the treatment often misses the mark, too.
00:42This new approach could help doctors identify biological markers that support a more accurate diagnosis.
00:48The study is published in the journal Neurology, and researchers say the next step is refining the model,
00:54so it could eventually be used in real clinical settings to help the millions of people whose migraines go undiagnosed
01:01or mistreated.
