Doctors May Soon Test Treatments on Digital Twins of Patients

A new technology allows doctors to simulate the effects of treatments on a virtual replica of a patient.

A team of researchers has developed a digital twin technology that enables doctors to test the effectiveness of treatments on a virtual replica of a patient. This digital twin is a highly detailed, 3D model of a patient's anatomy and physiology. By simulating the effects of treatments on the digital twin, doctors can predict the potential outcomes of a treatment without putting a real patient at risk.
