How Digital Twins Are Simulating Your Health

Digital twins — virtual replicas of human organs, systems, or even entire bodies — are moving from engineering into medicine. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how Dassault Systèmes built a 3D heart model accurate enough to simulate surgical outcomes, and why cardiologists at Boston Children's Hospital are using it to plan complex procedures before entering the OR. They discuss the computational scale (each heart model requires over 100 million data points), the regulatory puzzle (the FDA has approved exactly zero digital twins for clinical use), and the ethical tension: what happens when the simulation disagrees with the doctor? Specific, grounded, and forward-looking — no hype. #DigitalTwins #HealthTech #DassaultSystemes #BostonChildrensHospital #Cardiology #MedicalSimulation #SurgicalPlanning #FDA #ComputationalMedicine #3DModeling #VirtualHeart #HealthcareInnovation #PrecisionMedicine #OrganSimulation #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
