DEVICE AND METHOD OF DETERMINING INJECTION POINT FOR TARGET DELIVERY OF MEDICATION Russian patent published in 2011 - IPC A61B5/26 A61B8/06 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: device for determination of injection point in area of vessel, through which performed is injection of medication in target region of patient's organism, contains: identification means for identification of topology of vascular tree vessels, feeding target region; means for flow determination for determination of percent content of medication delivered to target after injection in different potential injection points in vascular tree; means of sorting for selection as optimal injection point, of potential injection point, which leads to higher percent content of medication delivered to target. Other version of device additionally suggests presence of display means for displaying vascular tree and presenting optimal injection point. Method includes: preliminary identification of topology of vascular tree vessels, feeding target region; determination of percent content of medication delivered to target region after injection in various potential injection points of vascular tree; selection as optimal injection point, of potential injection point, which leads to higher percent content of medication delivered to target.

EFFECT: invention allows to determine quantitatively and visualise both tumour treatment efficiency and negative impact on adjacent healthy tissues.
