The interdisciplinary project "PIRATE" is developing an AI-supported prototype software for the personalized risk assessment and treatment optimization of brain aneurysms. By combining state-of-the-art medical imaging, fluid dynamics, and artificial intelligence, the project closes a critical gap in previously inadequate diagnostics. The result is a practical, application-oriented solution in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania that fundamentally improves clinical decision support and patient safety.
