IRTIC is a surgical and interventional research network that aims at developing digital procedures for tomorrow cancer surgery.
IRTIC was launched in 2010 with a governing structure that includes four committees: Board of Directors, Scientific Committee, Knowledge Valorisation and Industrial Partnership Committee and Ethics Committee.
RESEARCH AXES | IRTIC focuses its efforts on five cross-disciplinary research axes :
• Acquisition and visualization of intra-body images
• Surgical equipment: endoscopic surgical instruments, computer-assisted medical interventions (CAMI), remote handling, surgical navigation and robotic surgery
• Alternative techniques to surgery for tumour ablation: new non-ionizing percutaneous and transvascular techniques for tumour destruction guided by real time imaging: development of high-intensity ultrasound treatments, phototherapy, selective enzymatic activation
• Multi-disciplinary, minimally invasive procedures: association of surgery, coelioscopy, endoscopy and interventional radiology for less invasive procedures that benefit from augmented reality
• New methods of cancer detection: use of specific tumour markers, metabolic imaging and respiratory-gated image acquisition for correlation with the patient’s respiratory cycle.
RESEARCH PROGRAMMES | The Scientific Committee has structured three major research programmes:
FUTUROP: Real time intra-body navigation systems with therapeutic aims
1. Targeted intravascular navigation in real time
2. Ergonomics of the coelio-endoscopy operating room
3. Augmented reality and real time localization
4. Loco-regional intravascular chemotherapy
DESTRUCTOND: Cancer destruction by waves
5. Inverse MRI, thermotherapy by focused radiofrequency energy
6. High-intensity, non-ionizing, focused ultrasound waves
7. Fluocancer – Macroscopic phototherapy
8. Fluocancer – Tissue-targeted phototherapy
THEREVAL: Non-invasive therapeutic evaluation
9. Perfusion imaging and biomarkers
IRTIC ended in May 2023.
