The aim of the project is to improve patient safety and precision in the irradiation process using a system based on existing and merged patient data.
The project aims to improve radiotherapy for oncology patients by optimizing positioning and movement control during treatment. Traditional radiotherapy is carried out lying down, often with uncomfortable masks and supports. The new method is designed to enable treatment in a sitting or semi-standing position. Supported by cameras and AI, the patient’s position is determined without contact and the radiation pauses when movement is detected.
This increases comfort and improves safety. The newly developed system is to be used in both existing and new radiotherapy devices.
