CLEVELAND, Aug. 5, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- MIM Software Inc., a leading global provider of medical imaging software, announced today it has received CE Mark approval for MAA voxel-based SPECT/CT dosimetry through its MIM SurePlan LiverY90 product.
MIM SurePlan LiverY90 provides pre-treatment activity planning, time-saving tools for liver and tumor segmentation, deformable registration, and post-treatment dosimetry for interventional radiologists and Nuclear Medicine physicians treating hepatic tumors with radioactive microspheres, including SIR-Spheres. The software allows physicians to quickly calculate the dose delivered by the microspheres to improve treatment decisions and patient care.
"With this new dosimetry capability, interventional radiologists can efficiently conduct pre-treatment activity planning using formulas traditionally provided by microsphere manufacturers, as well as take advantage of MAA voxel-based dosimetry simulation," said Aaron Nelson, MD, Chief Medical Officer of MIM Software. "We're excited to provide this offering to the Interventional Radiology community and are looking forward to the impact on patient care."
The CE Mark approval expands upon the partnership MIM Software entered with Sirtex in February 2020, which authorized specialized Sirtex sales teams in the United States, Europe, and other key global markets to offer a comprehensive solution, INSYTEY90, that includes MIM SurePlan LiverY90 alongside SIR-Spheres Y-90 resin microspheres to improve treatment precision for patients with hepatic tumors.
"MIM SurePlan LiverY90 has become a valuable tool for physicians when treating patients with SIR-Spheres," said Kevin Smith, Chief Executive Officer of Sirtex. "We congratulate MIM Software on this accomplishment and look forward to continuously advancing patient care as partners."
