Karolinska University Hospital Develops Tool to Capture Late Side Effects of Breast Cancer Radiation

The tool uses a digital twin of the patient's anatomy to simulate radiation treatment and predict potential side effects.

Karolinska University Hospital in Sweden has developed a new tool to help capture late side effects of radiation treatment for breast cancer patients. The tool uses a digital twin of the patient's anatomy to simulate radiation treatment and predict potential side effects. This allows doctors to make informed decisions about treatment plans and reduce the risk of long-term damage to healthy tissues.
