Project Description

The project aims to discuss the concept of integrative OR environments from a holistic neurosurgical design perspective. Open questions to be addressed include qualitative standardization of information visualization for intraoperative use, integration of PACS and non-PACS imaging data sets, and ready-to-use image control setup operated by surgeons and staff. During project week, the main focus will be on more elaborate use of already existing technology (e.g. multi-window mode of 3D Slicer).

Objective	Approach and Plan	Progress and Next Steps
create, discuss and refine design concept of surgical (touch) interface for intraoperative multimodal and multi-source image control	define relevant image data sources for standard and research procedures discuss and define standard display settings, potentially including automation of basic aspects prepare implementation of direct interaction in the OR	decision for further exploration of 3DSlicer as tool for image viewing and image control in neurosurgery pre-analysis and evaluation of intraoperative image setup and control identification of primary (PACS) and optional (non-PACS) image sources by type of case testing freedom of dynamic interaction with and manipulation of customized imaging display (number, size and arrangement of windowed content) start scenario: remote image control by dedicated person (delegation) future scenario: direct control by surgeon (e.g. via sterile touch screen)
