Market Size
The Europe digital twins in healthcare market reached US$ 471.35 million in 2024 and is expected to reach US$ 3,496.18 million by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 25.3% during the forecast period 2025-2033.
A digital twin in healthcare refers to a virtual model or replica of a physical entity, such as a patient, medical device, healthcare facility or even an entire healthcare system. It is a digital representation that uses real-time data, advanced simulation, machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) to mirror the physical object or system in the digital world.
Digital twins in healthcare are created by integrating data from multiple sources, including sensors (IoT devices), electronic health records (EHR), medical imaging, genetic data and clinical data, to create dynamic, interactive and continuously updated digital models. These models allow for the simulation of various scenarios, enabling predictive analysis of health conditions, treatment responses or operational workflows.
