Description
Liver cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world and is increasing rapidly. Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common type of liver cancer accounting for approximately 75% of all liver cancers. Most cases of HCC are the result of infection with hepatitis B or C, or cirrhosis of the liver caused by alcoholism. Hepatocellular carcinoma is not the same as, which starts in another organ (such as the breast or colon) and spreads to the liver. Unfortunately, treatment options are limited for many patients due to excessive tumor growth and spread, in addition to the presence of cirrhosis. In certain cases, interventional oncology is an alternative to traditional surgery, chemotherapy or radiotherapy, when these conventional therapeutic strategies have failed or are not considered safe. Based on our experience in endovascular interventions of cardiovascular procedures, the objective of this new project is to propose a set of computer-assisted tools for the planning of endovascular liver interventions, with a major focus on chimio- and radio-embolization procedures for HCC.
Objective :
The first mandatory step of this innovative project will be to analyze the pre-operative patient images and validate automatic segmentation algorithms of anatomical structures, in particular segmentation of the liver lesions and the hepatic arterial tree. This will allow creating a full 3D model of relevant anatomical structures for improved intervention planning. Then, the work will focus on 2 aspects :
A collaboration with interventional radiologists will be needed. This work will be a further step towards better planning and assistance of endovascular procedures in oncology, providing the interventional radiologist with new tools for secured endovascular interventions and therefore a real alternative to traditional treatment options such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
