Abstract

The increased development and use of ubiquitous digital services reinforce the trend where health-related data is generated everywhere. Data usage in different areas introduces different terms for the same or similar concepts. This adds to the confusion of what these terms represent. We aim to provide an overview of concepts and terms used in connection with digital twins and in a healthcare context.
