The present invention relates to: a method for planning an infusion, wherein patient data are captured and the infusion to be carried out is planned using the captured patient data; and to a computer program which may be loaded in the memory of a computer and which includes sections of software code with which the method is performed when the program is running on a computer; and to a device for planning an infusion, comprising a patient data capturing system and a computer system for carrying out planning based on the captured patient data; to a method for carrying out an infusion, wherein the infusion is planned and then carried out; and to a device for carrying out an infusion, comprising a verification device for comparing planned infusion data with actual infusion data.
A method for planning an infusion, wherein patient data are captured and the infusion to be carried out is planned using said patient data.
The method as set forth in any one of the preceding claims, wherein said patient data are captured by a magnetic resonance method (MRI), a computer tomography method (CT), an x-ray method or an ultrasound method.
The method as set forth in any one of the preceding claims, wherein patient parameters are obtained from said captured patient data and are used for planning said infusion.
The method as set forth in any one of the preceding claims, wherein parameters of said infusing medium, defining chemical, biological and/or physical properties of said infusing medium, are used for planning said infusion.
The method as set forth in any one of the preceding claims, wherein catheter parameters are used for planning said infusion.
The method as set forth in any one of the preceding claims, wherein the distribution of said infusing medium is simulated based on said patient parameters, catheter parameters and said parameters of said infusing medium.
The method as set forth in any one of the preceding claims, wherein a target volume and/or a distribution of infusing medium in the patient is pre-set, and the catheter parameters and parameters of said infusing medium required for this are determined on the basis of these.
A device for planning an infusion, comprising a patient data capturing system (3) and a computer system (1) for carrying out planning based on said captured patient data.
A method for carrying out an infusion, wherein said infusion is planned and then carried out.
A device for carrying out an infusion, comprising a verification device for comparing planned infusion data with actual infusion data.
