6.3 | What Do Surgeons REALLY Need? User Needs for Medical Software Course

From the creator

Have you ever wondered what goes into designing groundbreaking medical software? In this lesson, we take a concrete look at identifying user needs for an image-guided neurosurgery solution, set in the context of epilepsy surgery in 1999. We explore the critical challenges and 'pain points' surgeons faced before modern technology, illustrating why understanding these needs is paramount for developing effective medical software. 🎯 Learning Objectives • Understand the process of identifying user needs in medical software development. • Analyze a case study of image-guided neurosurgery for epilepsy, imagining the surgical challenges of 1999. • Identify specific 'pain points' and difficulties faced by surgeons prior to modern image guidance. • Envision how a medical software solution could address these challenges and improve surgical outcomes.
