Tumor3D is a service consisting of the visualization of cancerous tumors in the patient's body using three-dimensional technology. Thanks to it, you can see your body from the inside and better prepare to fight cancer. Data transcription to a 3D image is performed in order to better visualize the location of the tumor. It is a diagnostic aid for the doctor and does not replace the contact between the patient and his attending physician.
3D visualization consists in creating an image in graphic and video format in three-dimensional technology on the basis of data recorded during medical examinations – computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
3D visualization allows for a better picture showing the exact location of the tumor. Thanks to it, it is possible to better determine the impact of a tumor on the functioning of a given organ and / or other internal organs, and to better prepare for surgery and treatment.
3D visualization can be performed at any time during treatment, however, DICOM files obtained during computer tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations are necessary for its performance.
DICOM files are a form of data storage, incl. from computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging, with standardized parameters, so that they can be read on various medical devices. The DICOM format, or Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine, was developed by NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Association) to standardize imaging data obtained during imaging examinations (e.g. computed tomography). DICOM files are characterized by a large volume, therefore they require special software and the use of appropriate computer hardware.
In order to perform 3D visualization, appropriate medical examinations must be performed – computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Then, after obtaining the image, upload the DICOM files along with the test description to the Tumor3D system.
You must upload to the system DICOM files obtained during a computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination and a .jpg file with a radiological description of the examination with the confirmed solid neoplasm, taking into account its shape and location.
You can find a CT scan or MRI scan on the CD you get from your doctor. If you did not receive it, ask the facility where you did the test to record the data on a CD / DVD.
DICOM files can be found in the data on the CD / DVD you received from your medical facility. After turning it on with the drive in the computer, the window showing its contents will appear. Among the visible folders you should find a folder called 'DICOM' which should then be uploaded into the Tumor3D system.
To upload files to the system you need to register first. If you already have an account, then after logging in, in the user's panel, click the 'Submit file for analysis' or 'Start analysis' button. Then, after entering the name of the analysis, drag the files with the test description to the indicated window or select files from the computer after pressing 'Upload files'. In the next step you will be asked to add DICOM files – they should be uploaded in the same way.

The waiting time for the finished visualization is 5 business days.
Your data is completely safe – it is processed in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in force throughout the European Union from May 25, 2018.
3D visualizations are made by a team of experienced radiologists.
