Someone has to decide how hard it pushes air into your lungs.
How a digital twin built from one CT scan lets a care team rehearse ventilator settings before touching the real dial.
The story
Every pair of lungs is different, and in ventilation what helps one patient may injure another. Ebenbuild rebuilds a patient's lungs in 3D from a routine CT scan, airways and damage included, then tests combinations of ventilator settings on that copy and maps how each region would respond. A flight simulator for breathing, spun out of years of research at the Technical University of Munich.
Three things to know
A ventilator setting that helps one patient can harm another.
A digital twin is built from a CT scan the hospital already has.
Settings are tested on the copy first, so the team sees a map before they act.
