Objective
The Queen’s/Hopkins team is developing novel devices and procedures for cancer interventions, including biopsy and therapies.
Our goal for the programming week is to design and start implementing software for the new MRI Brachytherapy needle positioning robot.
Approach, Plan
The first step is to create a system design: workflow, software components, communication protocols, dataflow.
Next we'll create NaviTrack module and test program for the embedded computer which controls the robot. (Linux)
Progress
- Requirement analysis - done
- System design - done
- NaviTrack Module - underway
- Slicer Module - underway
