Award for developing and validating software to assist physicians in microwave ablation treatment of liver tumors, improving accuracy and treatment outcomes.
Description
This project aims to validate a software that supports physicians in percutaneous microwave ablation of liver tumors. The software simulates the physics of the procedure and indicates on images which parts of the tumor have been killed, aiming to improve treatment accuracy and reduce incomplete ablations.
