SIRIO

SIRIO is the innovative intra-operatory virtual guiding system purposely designed to offer the physician a simple and transparent interface, while guaranteeing at the same time the maximum safety for the patient.

Born from the joint research efforts of medical doctors from centers of clinical excellence and MASMEC Biomed’s bioengineers, SIRIO provides with a fundamental aid in surgical procedures of percutaneous biopsies and thermoablations for reaching deep target nodules.

Starting from CT scans, the system reconstructs 3D virtual models of the patient’s anatomy. So the interventional radiologist can quickly and accurately identify the optimal trajectory for the needle insertion and follow in real-time its progression inside the patient’s body.

SIRIO reduces the procedure time, the number of the dangerous CT scans and provides a consistent improvement in procedure efficacy.
