Webinar: Digital Twins in Cardiology: Dream or Reality?
May 29 @ 8:00 AM - 9:00 AM
Despite remarkable advances in cardiovascular medicine, significant challenges remain—predicting sudden cardiac death, decoding complex imaging of fibrotic substrates, tailoring catheter ablation, guiding transcatheter valve implantation, and planning intricate surgical repairs. In this session, Dr. Bessiere, cardiologist and electrophysiologist at Hospices Civils de Lyon and researcher at INSERM, joins Dr. El Houari, engineer at Ansys, to explore how digital twins—powered by the PyAnsysHeart platform—may help bridge these clinical gaps. From electrophysiology to structural heart disease, they’ll unpack real-world scenarios where simulation meets precision care.

About this Event
This presentation will explore real-world applications of in silico modeling, showing how digital twins can replicate a patient’s unique cardiac function, simulate interventions, and refine treatment strategies before being applied in the real world. From electrophysiology to structural heart disease, the speakers will present case studies where simulation bridges the gap between research and precision medicine, ultimately improving patient outcomes and accelerating innovation in cardiovascular care.
