Fondazione D³4Health

D3 4 Health Foundation: Advancing Wearable Technologies, Sensors, and Biomarkers for Care through Digital Twin Approaches.

In this session, we will explore the objectives and activities of the D³4 Health Foundation, focusing on the latest advancements in wearable technologies, sensor integration, and biomarker development. A particular highlight will be the cutting-edge research conducted by Spoke 3, led by the University of Sapienza, which is pioneering the use of these technologies in conjunction with Digital Twin approaches to revolutionize patient care. By leveraging real-time data and predictive analytics, we’ll delve into how these innovations enable precise monitoring, diagnosis, and personalized treatments.

Prof.ssa Valeria Panebianco

Valeria Panebianco is a Full Professor of Radiology at Sapienza University in Rome, Italy, where she is also the Head of University Department of Radiological Sciences, Oncology and Pathology, and Coordinator of the CARE unit (Multidisciplinary Unit for the Application of Digital Medicine). Professor Panebianco has been a vital member of the several international scientific societies contributing significantly to the organization's guidelines and educational initiatives. She holds several prominent international roles, such as: Chairperson of the American College of Radiology VI-RADS Steering Committee, Member of the Communication and Interdisciplinary Affairs Committee of the ESR, Panel Member for the EAU Guidelines on Muscle-Invasive and Metastatic Bladder Cancer, Vice-Chair of the Prostate MRI Working Group of the ESUR and President of the Urogenital Radiology Section of the Italian Society of Radiology (SIRM). Professor Panebianco has authored more than 250 peer-reviewed papers, with a primary focus on prostate and bladder cancer imaging. Recently her research emphasized the application of computational medicine to identify biomarkers tumor early detection, personalized therapy and monitoring, through the development of Digital Twin technologies. She has led position papers on MRI standardization, specifically for bladder cancer (VI-RADS – Vesical Imaging Reporting and Data System) and prostate cancer recurrence (PI-RR – Prostate MRI for Local Recurrence Reporting). Additionally, Professor Panebianco was appointed by the World Health Organization to contribute to the WHO Blue Book on Urinary Tumors. She organized the first national screening trial for early prostate cancer detection, known as “Prostate Cancer Secondary Screening in Sapienza”. A dedicated educator, Professor Panebianco is committed to advancing genitourinary imaging and promoting interdisciplinary collaboration. She actively fosters cooperation between radiologists, oncologists, and urologists to ensure that innovations in imaging technology translate into improved patient care and outcomes.

Prof. Alessandro Giuseppe D’Aloia
