Cooperative Advanced REsearch for Medical Efficiency (Care4Me)

Participants : Grégoire Malandain [ Correspondant ] , Nicholas Ayache, Hervé Delingette, Xavier Pennec, Maxime Sermesant.

The ITEA2 European project Cooperative Advanced REsearch for Medical Efficiency (Care4Me) aims to increase quality and productivity in the healthcare care cycle by using more advanced medical imaging and decision support methods while combining them with different knowledge sources, from early diagnosis to treatment and monitoring. The final outcome of this project are clinical prototypes of novel medical image analysis and decision support systems for three specific disease areas (cancer, cardio-vascular and neurodegenerative disease), that connect to the hospital information systems using a new system architecture.

In this project, the role of the Asclepios team is to develop atlas of the ageing brain and the beating heart, and to model tumor growth.
