  4. Model Guided Therapy and the Patient Specific Model • Model Guided Therapy (MGT) is a methodology complementing Image Guided Therapy (IGT) with additional vital patient-specific data. • It brings patient treatment closer to achieving a more precise diagnosis, a more accurate assessment of prognosis, as well as a more individualized planning, execution and validation of a specific therapy. • By definition, Model Guided Therapy is based on a Patient Specific Model (PSM) and allows for a patient specific intervention via an adapted therapeutic workflow.

  5. Model Guided Therapy and data structures • Model Guided Therapy based on patient specific modelling requires appropriate IT architectures and data structures for its realisation. • For PSMs, archetypes and templates allow different levels of generalisation and specialisation, respectively.

  9. Model Guided Therapy with TIMMS • For a therapeutic intervention it is assumed that human, mechatronic, radiation or pharmaceutical agents interact with the model. • MGT provides the scientific basis for an accurate, transparent and reproducible intervention with the potential for validation and other services. • TIMMS is an IT meta architecture allowing for interoperability of the agents to facilitate a MGT intervention.

  10. Model Guided Therapy The basic TIMMS patient model must have the following features: • The TIMMS patient model must have components which represent the patient as an n-dimensional and multiscale (in space and time) data set. • The TIMMS patient model must facilitate interfacing to the surgeon and other operative personnel, the TIMMS engines, TIMMS repositories, and the IT infrastructure. • The TIMMS patient model must be capable of linking these components, which may be static or dynamic, in a meaningful and accurate way. • For dynamic components, the TIMMS patient model must be able to process morphological and physiological data and perform the necessary mathematical functions to maintain the model in an up-to-date state.

  11. Model Guided Therapy • The TIMMS patient model must be capable of being incorporated by the TIMMS executing workflow and responding to its changes. • The TIMMS patient model must be amenable to be developed using readily available, standardized informatics methodology. Tools may include UML, XML, Visio, block diagrams, workflow diagrams, MATLAB, Simulink, DICOM (including surgical DICOM), Physiome, CDISC SDTM, openEHRand similar products and tools. • The TIMMS patient model must comply to software engineering criteria, for example, to open standards and service-oriented architectures to allow for multi-disciplinary information exchange. • The TIMMS patient model must allow for further extensions to incorporate advances in molecular medical imaging, genomics, proteomics and epigenetics. • The TIMMS patient model must be amenable to be used for clinical trials, predictive modeling, personal health records and in the long term contribute to a Model Based Medical Evidence (EBME) methodology.

  14. Model Guided Therapy • MGT in its simpliest instantiation is an intervention with a subset, a single or a set of voxels representing locations within the patient body. With this view, it is an extension from Image (pixel) Guided Therapy (IGT) to model (voxel) guided therapy. Examples of model guided therapy are: a) interventions within a subset of a voxel, e.g. cells, organelles, molecules, etc. b) interventions with a voxel, e.g. small tissue parts of an organ or lesion, etc. c) interventions with a set of voxels, e.g. part of functional structures of organs, organ components, soft tissue, lesions, etc.

  15. Model Guided Therapy In a simple PSM, voxels may be associated with several dimensions of data • 1-D signals (e.g. EEG) • 2-D projection and tomographic images • 3-D reconstructions • Temporal change • Tissue/cell type • Ownership to organ, lesion, system, prothesis, chronic condition, etc. • Spatial occupancy/extension • Permeability (blood brain barrier) • Flow (e.g. electric, heat, liquid, perfusion, diffusion, etc.)

  16. Model Guided Therapy In a simple PSM, voxels may be associated with several dimensions of data • Level of oxygenation (e.g. level of hypoxia) • Pharmacokinetics (e.g. effect of tissue on pharmaceutical agent, flow parameters, time to peak, etc.) • Pharmacodynamics (effect of pharmaceutical agent on tissue, ablation parameters) • Biological marker types (in vitro and/or in vivo molecular spectrum) • Reference coordinate system (e.g. Schaltenbrand/Warren, Talaraich/Tourneaux) • Value (life critical to life threatening) • Neighbourhood (e.g. 3³, 5³, 7³, etc.) • ...

  20. Strategies for multiscale modelling • Modelling is essential for understanding the knowledge of human characteristics such as, anatomy, physiology, metabolism, genomics, proteomics, pharmacokinetics, etc. • Because of the complexity of integrating the knowledge about the different characteristics the model of a human has to be realised on different levels (multiscale in space and time) and with different ontologies, depending on the questions posed and answered delivered. • The problems associated with using reduced-form components within large systems models stem primarily from their limited range of validity.

  22. Patient specific and associated modelling functions In the Model-Centric World View a wide variety of information, relating to the patient, can be integrated with the images and their derivatives, providing a more comprehensive and robust view of the patient. By default, the broader the spectrum of different types of interventional/surgical workflows which have to be considered, the more effort has to be given for designing appropriate multiscale PSM’s and associated services.

  23. Patient specific and associated modelling functions Management of n-D and multi resolutional knowledge (model of the biologic continuum in space and time) is still a research and development challenge. If solved successfully, it will transform surgery into a more scientifically based activity.
