摘要:

Quality assurance is a topical issue within the software industry, and various methodological solutions aimed at improving software quality have been proposed. Medical software is generally deemed safety-critical and, as such, should be subject to control procedures exceeding those applicable to general-purpose software. The user/purchaser of medical equipment has an important part to play in the drive for higher-quality medical software, and ways in which the user can influence commercial suppliers are outlined. The implications of existing and planned legislation are also discussed.

摘要:

The fast measurement of furrows or wrinkles requires the use of a non-contact device. We have chosen a laser detector based on a triangulation principle, using position-sensitive detectors. This apparatus has a sensitivity of about 2–3μm for a vertical range>1 mm; this vertical range can reach 8 mm. There is no contact between the detector and the surface and this reduces the measurement time because, while data are being transmitted, there is no decrease in the scanning speed as with earlier methods. We describe the device and its technical characteristics. The limits of use are shown in the measurement of low-amplitude defects (>3–4μm) and of wide defects of≤8 mm. Examples of software possibilities and practical applications related to skin microrelief wrinkles and pathological cases, are also described.

摘要:

Several parameters used in the assessment of pathological gait are normally determined by measurements obtained by means other than from force plate recordings. Methods are presented whereby parameters such as stride length, step length, cadence, single support lime, average forward velocity and angle of foot in contact with the force plate are determined directly from force plate recordings of the gait.
