Abstract :
Digital twin (DT) technology, originally developed in industrial engineering to monitor and optimize physical assets, is emerging as a paradigm-shifting innovation in modern healthcare. A digital twin is a virtual replica of a physical entity, linked by a continuous, bi-directional flow of real-time data. In healthcare, a digital twin is an individualized, interconnected, interactive, informative, and impactful (the “5Is”) virtual representation of a patient. It is a living, intelligent, and evolving virtual model of human organs, tissues, cells, or entire physiological systems that continuously updates via real-time patient data. Unlike static computational models, a true digital twin establishes a bidirectional, synchronized data loop with its physical counterpart. This paper examines the evolving role of digital twins in healthcare.
