Brachydose medical data pilot project

This summer BrachyDOSE was busy working on the pilot project analyzing cancer patients' data.

We analyzed 10 years secondary medical data of Lithuanian cancer patients. Data included how many external beam and brachyteraphy procedures were performed in Lithuania. Also, how much does it cost for a patient and Lithuanian government to treat side effects that were caused during the radiation treatment.

This analysis allowed us to better understand the costs associated with cancer patients in the Lithuanian health system and helped to train one of our algorithms to ensure the effectiveness of therapeutic procedures.
