Funded by European Commission up to 5.5 million, the Hypmed project aims to develop by 2019 device and software solutions, based on an innovative hybrid PET/MRI technology.
Techniques used increase the sensitivity and specificity of cancer detection for clinicians, earlier and more efficient for undetected cases. Less begnin lesions will be detected at a secure level unseen, avoiding biopsies and unnecessary treatment, aggressive and costly. Moreover, the cost of this new device will be much less expensive, unlike PET/MRI current solutions on the market.
The Hypmed consortium is composed of German, Dutch and Austrian universities and 3 actors of medical imaging sector, like Intrasense or the Dutch manufacturer Philips. The clinical leadership is led by the teaching hospital of Aix-la-Chapelle (France), acting through Professor Christiane Khul, recognized worldwide for her work on breast cancer MRI imaging.
