“…Other applications involve modeling a specific function of the human body, such as the respiratory system [ 31 ]. Digital twins created for patients are entirely personalized to suit their needs, meaning that any treatments prescribed to the patient will be less generalized [ 32 , 33 ]. Examples of this include digital twins that can participate in clinical trials that factor in allergies, hereditary conditions, and additional medications the patient may also be currently taking [ 34 , 35 , 36 ].…”

Digital twins are a relatively new form of digital modeling that has been gaining popularity in recent years. This is in large part due to their ability to update in real time to their physical counterparts and connect across multiple devices. As a result, much interest has been directed towards using digital twins in the healthcare industry. Recent advancements in smart wearable technologies have allowed for the utilization of human digital twins in healthcare. Human digital twins can be generated using biometric data from the patient gathered from wearables. These data can then be used to enhance patient care through a variety of means, such as simulated clinical trials, disease prediction, and monitoring treatment progression remotely. This revolutionary method of patient care is still in its infancy, and as such, there is limited research on using wearables to generate human digital twins for healthcare applications. This paper reviews the literature pertaining to human digital twins, including methods, applications, and challenges. The paper also presents a conceptual method for creating human body digital twins using wearable sensors.
