Researchers from the University of Sheffield are collaborating with other partners to develop the world’s first ‘digital twin’ of the human cardiovascular system. The ambitious project called “The ‘Enhancing Cardiac Care Through Extensive Sensing’ (ECHOES)”  will use the latest Artificial intelligence techniques to diagnose and treat cardiovascular disease alongside care from their doctor. ECHOES aims to provide better patient outcomes and more effective treatment. Moreover, the project has already been chosen as one of the finalists of the British Heart Foundation’s Big Beat Challenge due to its ‘revolutionary’ approach to cardiovascular treatment and the advantage it could bring to heart patients.
