Personalised brain maps to optimize the diagnosis and treatment of brain tumor
CompanyBraincarta, Utrecht, Netherlands
In order to be able to use the advantages of functional MRI scan technology for the diagnosis and treatment planning of brain tumor patients in smaller clinics and oncological therapy facilities, the company Braincarta has developed the Elonav concept. Elonav is an AI-powered, fully automated data processing and evaluation program that enables functional MRI scans to be performed without the presence of a specially trained technical expert. The patient's fMRI data is recorded according to standardized specifications and then uploaded to the Braincarta server. To evaluate brain function and structure, the recorded patient data is compared with an integrated patient database. Based on this comparison and using well-known neurologically relevant algorithms, Elonav creates a personalized brain map of the patient, which provides doctors with precise information about the location of the tumor as well as the structure and functionality of neighbouring brain areas. Within a few hours, the data protection-compliant results are provided in the form of a PDF report and a 3D DICOM file. The three-dimensional, image representation of the brain enables neurosurgeons and radiation therapists to develop a targeted and personalized treatment strategy. In summary, the CE-certified method proves to be an innovative digital solution that can help make fMRI technology accessible to all patients for optimal medical care and reduce possible treatment risks (such as functional damage caused by neurosurgical procedures or radiation). Additionally, the Elonav concept is suitable for multicentre pharmaceutical and biotechnology research projects that require standardized protocols for fMRI, resting state fMRI and DTI (diffusion tensor imaging).
