Towards a Digital Twin in Human Brain: Brain Tumor Detection Using K-Means

Stud Health Technol Inform. 2023 May 18:302:1052-1056. doi: 10.3233/SHTI230345.

Abstract

Digital Twins come to revolutionize the ongoing procedures of healthcare industry, with their ability to stimulate and predict patients' diagnosis and treatment. In this paper a K-means based brain tumor detection algorithm and its 3D modelling design, both derived from MRI scans, are presented towards to the creation of the digital twin.

Keywords: Brain Tumor; Clustering; Digital Twin; K-means.
