Abstract: ABSTRACT NON-INVASIVE BIOIMPEDANCE SYSTEM WITH ADAPTIVE DIGITAL TWIN FOR MONITORING BONE FRACTURE HEALING A system (1) for monitoring bone fracture healing includes non-invasive surface electrodes (2) positioned over a fracture site, an analog front-end circuit (3), and an embedded acquisition unit (4) having an analog-to-digital converter that derives a calibrated impedance value. A computing module (5) extracts a temporal feature vector from a rolling window of calibrated impedance values. A trained classifier (6) produces a healing-stage classification output, and an unsupervised anomaly-detection model (7), operating concurrently with and independently of the trained classifier (6) on the same feature vector, produces an anomaly-detection output. A digital twin module (8) updates a patient-specific stage-probability distribution through a healing-stage transition model combined with the classification output, determines a deviation between a current observed impedance value and a predicted expected impedance value, and generates a deviation alert when the deviation satisfies a predetermined criterion adjusted responsive to the anomaly-detection output.
