DECODE.
A simulation and optimisation system for drug-coated balloons supporting the treatment of peripheral artery disease
Agreement number: 956470
Project goal.
Within the project, the company will carry out research into the measurement of anatomical structures in medical images in holographic space, and into the automatic segmentation of arteries in CT data using the CarnaLife Holo application.


The company is required to allocate the funding to research, training, networking, project management activities and other indirect costs, as well as to the costs of employing and supporting two doctoral candidates who will conduct research in cooperation with the company.
