10-Year lung study aims to create a 'Digital Twin' of your lungs
NCT ID NCT07517393
First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study will follow 1000 adults for up to 10 years, using a special type of CT scan (photon-counting) to look for lung nodules, tumors, and other lung conditions. Researchers will also use artificial intelligence to create a virtual copy of each person's lungs, called a 'digital twin,' to help study how lungs change over time. The goal is to better understand lung diseases and improve early detection.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only โ not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to better early detection of lung diseases and a 'digital twin' model to simulate lung behavior without invasive procedures.
- What could go wrong
- This is an observational study, not testing a treatment. The AI model may not be accurate enough, and results may take years to confirm.
