ISIT Image Science for Interventional Techniques, UMR 6284 UdA – CNRS

The ISIT lab (UMR 6284 UdA – CNRS) focuses its research on interventional techniques applied to three principal fields: cardio-vascular specialties, endoscopic surgery and clinical neurosciences and connectomics. Innovative medical imaging modalities are implemented within practical clinical protocols to assist the interventional procedure, either during the planning, the guidance itself, or the postoperative control. Besides acknowledged skills in clinical research, the ISIT lab has available resources in image science envisaged from the point of view of artificial vision, virtual and augmented reality, discrete and physical models for image processing. Validation and transition to clinical medicine benefit from the nearness of experimental training centers like the International Center for Endoscopic Surgery (CICE) and the Experimental Catheterization Lab (CathLab). This environment is likely to promote the developed methods among the major companies of the field.

ISIT was created by merging ERIM (EA 3295), LAIC (EA 2146) and Fertilité humaine: environnement séminal, endométrial, péritonéal et spermatozoïdes (EA 975).
