Tata Consultancy Services on Monday said it joined the Living Heart Project of European technology major Dassault Systmes to create accurate digital
human heart models.
TCS in an exchange filing said it will use its domain and technology expertise, and research on the Digital BioTwin of the heart to contribute to model refinement, simulation, and technological implementation in developing and validating accurate and personalised digital human heart models.
The TCS Digital BioTwin is a biophysics-based high-fidelity computational model developed by TCS researchers to enable the investigation of the function of a particular human organ remotely and non-invasively.
The Living Heart Project unites an ecosystem of cardiovascular researchers, educators, medical device developers, regulatory agencies, including US FDA, and practising cardiologists, to develop and validate realistic digital simulations of the human heart.
A groundbreaking project with the Living Heart simulated 3D heart model will examine the use of heart simulation as a source of digital evidence for new cardiovascular device approvals. With this, medical devices could be designed and safely tested in the virtual world before ever being tested in the real world.
