The Fraunhofer Institute for Digital Medicine MEVIS is a world-leading and internationally connected research center for computer assistance in medicine.
With about 140 employees, our mission is to conduct patient-centric research and development to improve clinical processes for the benefit of our clinical partners and, in the end, patients.
Between image acquisition and treatment, the patient and their anatomy move, causing the image data to inaccurately represent reality. These movements make it difficult to track the progression of diseases. Even during a single image acquisition, patients can move, causing fine structures in the image data to blur. Our goal in the field of motion analysis is to identify where movements occur, measure them accurately, and provide physicians with motion-compensated data. Additionally, motion measurement data also has clinical benefits, such as diagnosing joint injuries. We mainly use simulations, mathematical motion and shape models, and optimization methods. These allow us to create individual models for patients.
