3D printing has been used in humanitarian and development sector to produce medical items, prosthetics, and repairs
Host summaryRae Hanke summarizing a resource — not the host's own clinical position2:09 ↗
Personalized medicine (precision medicine) is a medical model in which physicians use diagnostic tests to determine which medical treatments will work best for each patient
Host summaryTom Batch summarizing a resource — not the host's own clinical position2:22 ↗
Tools important for improving personalized medicine include genome editing, artificial intelligence, wearables, and 3D printing
Host summaryTom Batch summarizing a resource — not the host's own clinical position2:37 ↗
Medical devices produced by 3D printing include orthopedic and cranial implants, dental restorations, external prosthetics like hands and legs, and surgical instruments such as forceps, hemostats, scalpel handles, and clamps
Host summaryTom Batch summarizing a resource — not the host's own clinical position2:45 ↗
Some 3D printed devices are created from a typical design to make multiple identical copies, while others called patient-specific devices are created from a particular patient's imaging data
Host summaryTom Batch summarizing a resource — not the host's own clinical position3:00 ↗
3D printing can create patient-specific organ replicas that surgeons can use to practice on before performing complicated operations
Host summaryTom Batch summarizing a resource — not the host's own clinical position3:14 ↗
Using 3D printed organ replicas for surgical practice has been proven to speed up procedures and minimize trauma for patients
Host summaryTom Batch summarizing a resource — not the host's own clinical position3:26 ↗
Advancement of 3D printing technologies could move pharmaceutical production from mass manufacture to on-demand personalized dosage forms, providing patients with more safe and effective medicine

Digital twinning technology and applications in personalized medicine
A digital twin is a virtual representation that serves as the real-time digital counterpart of a physical object or process.
clinical0:46 ↗
The first practical definition of a digital twin originated from NASA in an attempt to improve physical model simulation of a spacecraft in 2010.
clinical0:55 ↗
Digital twinning involves visual process requiring software to model an object that looks similar to the real life object, then feeding the system with data about that object.
Host summaryTom Batch summarizing the discussion — not the host's own clinical position1:05 ↗
Digital twin technology uses machine learning and AI, and can be trained to behave like a specific entity while removing errors and unwanted elements, giving control over the digital twin's behavior.
clinicalRae Hanke1:21 ↗
Physical limitations that exist in the real world do not apply to digital twins in the virtual world, which are upgradable and extendable.
clinical1:40 ↗
With the help of a digital twin, companies can test and validate a product before it even exists in the real world.
clinical1:55 ↗
If a patient model is provided with data and trained with parameters that exactly match the real world, it will give similar results.
clinicalRae Hanke2:03 ↗
There will be a transition towards cheaper, more accessible, and easier to use digital twins, culminating in its democratization.
opinion2:15 ↗
Digital twin technology can be used to generate a virtual healthcare facility or a human body, creating an individual's genetic makeup, physiological characteristics and lifestyle habits.
Host summaryTom Batch summarizing the discussion — not the host's own clinical position2:28 ↗
AI helps in the design of digital twins to put together organs physiological data to output a 3D image, which can then be modeled to a specific patient from their specific parameters.
Host summaryTom Batch summarizing the discussion — not the host's own clinical position2:40 ↗
Digital twins of human hearts can model potassium overload which induces arrhythmias, helping to understand, predict, and avoid cardiac arrests.
Host summaryTom Batch summarizing the discussion — not the host's own clinical position2:53 ↗
Digital twins can model a heart restarting after surgery, showing imbalances of electrical signals going through the heart before an actual heart beat.
Host summaryTom Batch summarizing the discussion — not the host's own clinical position3:04 ↗
With a digital twin of a patient's heart and data from similar cases, doctors can predict the best possible outcome for the patient and simulate various options for a procedure to select the one with the optimal computer result.
