About Us

Image Guided Therapy Research Group (IGT) is a research group at Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (UC3M). We are part of Biomedical Sciences and Engineering Lab (BSEL) in the Department of Bioengineering. Our group is also part of Instituto de Investigación Sanitaria Gregorio Marañón (IISGM), a research institute integrating UC3M, Hospital General Universitario Gregorio Marañón and Universidad Complutense de Madrid.

Our Mission and Vision

Our mission is to drive innovation in healthcare through the power of image guided therapy, placing clinical needs as the driving force of our work. We are dedicated to bridging the gap between cutting-edge research and real-world clinical practice by fostering strong collaborations with leading hospitals and research institutions worldwide. This partnership ensures that every development we pursue has a direct, positive impact on patient care. 

‎‎‎‎‎ 

At the core of our vision is a commitment to innovation and accessibility. By embracing open-source platforms and leveraging advanced software tools such as 3D Slicer we rapidly prototype solutions that accelerate the translation of our research into clinical practice. Our work is powered by robust programming frameworks and modern computing techniques, which enable us to adapt quickly to emerging challenges in healthcare technology.

‎ 

Ultimately, our goal is to redefine what is possible in patient care through a blend of engineering and clinical expertise and technological advances, ensuring that every breakthrough translates into improved outcomes for patients.
