Personalizing Cancer Care with Digital Twins of Brain Tumors
Imagine a world where cancer treatment is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Enter the digital twin, a mathematical model that virtually represents a physical object and the way that object changes — in this case, a brain tumor. Because the digital twin is personalized to the individual patient, it can predict response to treatment and provide doctors with targeted advice.
