Real-time dosimetry for SIRT based on image fusion (dt. Echtzeitdosimetrieverfahren durch Bildfusion) is a joint research project by the industry partners SurgicEye GmbH, Crystal Photonics GmbH and the clinical partners of Universitätsklinikum Würzburg (UKW) and Universitätsklinikum Magdeburg (OVGU).
This project is funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy under grant number ZF4276201TS6.
The purpose of the system is to overcome the lack of imaging during the application of the Y-90 microspheres
The system combines images of an interventional gamma camera with patient specific Monte-Carlo simulations
