Digital Twin to Test Cancer Therapies Before Patient Treatment

A digital twin of a patient's tumor is being used to test cancer therapies before they are administered to the actual patient.

A digital twin of a patient's tumor is being used to test cancer therapies before they are administered to the actual patient. This approach is being explored by researchers at the University of California, San Francisco. The digital twin is a virtual replica of the tumor, allowing researchers to test different treatment options without putting the actual patient at risk.
