Neurosurgical planning software design and evaluation

这项Engage资助申请旨在启动一项合作研究项目，以量化Synaptive神经外科计划人机界面设计的新方面的性能。本提案旨在支持Synaptive Inc.与申请人Roy Eagleson教授（西安大略大学副教授）之间的新合作。本提案中详细介绍的方法来自于感知、认知和运动控制领域的实验心理学；但适应了监管机构对用于手术计划的医疗器械开发施加的严格评估标准。其中包括加拿大卫生部的标准（www.hc-sc.gc.ca/dhp-mps/alt_formats/pdf/md-im/standards-normes/md_rec_stand_im_norm_lst-eng.pdf）。

This Engage grant application is to initiate a collaborative research project to quantify the performance associated with novel aspects of the design of Synaptive's human-computer interface for Neurosurgical planning. This proposal is to support a new collaboration between Synaptive Inc., and the applicant, Prof. Roy Eagleson (Associate Professor, University of Western Ontario; UWO). The methodology that will be detailed in this proposal are derived from Experimental Psychology in the domains of Perception, Cognition, and Motor Control; but adapted to address the strict evaluation criteria imposed by regulatory agencies on the development of medical devices used for surgical planning. These include Health Canada standards (www.hc-sc.gc.ca/dhp-mps/alt_formats/pdf/md-im/standards-normes/md_rec_stand_im_norm_lst-eng.pdf)
