Blockchain-secure patient Digital Twin in healthcare using smart contracts.

ABSTRACT: Modern healthcare has a sharp focus on data aggregation and processing technologies. Consequently, from a data perspective, a patient may be regarded as a timestamped list of medical conditions and their corresponding corrective interventions. Technologies to securely aggregate and access data for individual patients in the quest for precision medicine have led to the adoption of Digital Twins in healthcare. Digital Twins are used in manufacturing and engineering to produce digital models of physical objects that capture the essence of device operation to enable and drive optimization. Thus, a patient's Digital Twin can significantly improve health data sharing. However, creating the Digital Twin from multiple data sources, such as the patient's electronic medical records (EMR) and persona
