VI.S.Y.O.
Vision Software for hYperthermic Oncology
Scheda del progetto
The company VISION S.p.A. has requested the development of a software platform to coordinate different active medical devices used in the treatment of solid tumors in the Head-Neck region. The platform will integrate a machine capable of generating a focused radiofrequency magnetic field, an ultrasound device, and a thermometer. The ultrasound device helps locate and characterize the tumor, allowing for the precise injection of Nanoradox nanoparticles, which are activated by the magnetic field generated by the machine. The localized and controlled overheating induced by the magnetic field triggers apoptosis in tumor cells. The VI.S.Y.O. software will collect data from the devices and process it to coordinate treatment parameters, facilitating the work of healthcare staff and ensuring patient safety.

The primary goal of the VI.S.Y.O. service is to develop a software platform to manage and control the medical devices involved in treating solid tumors in the Head and Neck region through localized hyperthermia with Nanoradox nanoparticles. The platform will ensure compatibility with the hardware devices and secure management of the therapy. The planned activities follow SMART objectives, ensuring specificity, measurability, attainability, and relevance with respect to the state of the art.
The VI.S.Y.O. service proposes an innovative software that manages the treatment of Head and Neck tumors with Nanoradox nanoparticles. It monitors the injection, focuses the magnetic field, and adjusts the power based on temperature, surpassing current standards in oncology. Advanced safety solutions make it competitive, contributing to CE marking and potentially leading to new patents.
The VI.S.Y.O. service by Vision will have a significant impact on the company’s economic performance, providing an innovative alternative for the treatment of solid tumors in the Head and Neck region. It will accelerate regulatory approval and foster ongoing collaborations with academic institutions such as the Politecnico di Torino. The VI.S.Y.O. software will streamline healthcare operations, improve data management, and optimize treatment protocols.
