Principles for Developing Patient Avatars in Precision and Systems Medicine
نویسنده
چکیده
The day is drawing near when each patient can be made into a SuperModel—not a fashion model, but a digital or virtual model (see companion paper Brown, in review). Such representation of a patient can also be termed a patient avatar (The Discipulus Project, 2013). Principles to help guide successful implementation of these SuperModels are addressed in this article, including efficiency and cost-effectiveness (Figure 1).
