Erfolgreicher Workshop auf der Mensch-Computer-Tagung
Erstmals wurden auf einem Workshop dediziert Fragen der Mensch-Computer-Interaktion in der operativen Medizin diskutiert. Experten aus der Industrie, der außeruniversitären Forschungsinstitute und der Universitäten haben Fragen der Usability, der Ergonomie von Geräten im Operationssaal, der Sicherheit von Hard- und Software im OP und des Vertrauens der Mediziner in technische Unterstützung diskutiert.
Der Workshop wurde gemeinsam von der AG Visualisierung (Otto-von-Guericke-Universität Magdeburg) und dem ICCAS Leipzig organisiert. Aufgrund der interessanten Diskussionen ist nun ein Special Issue für eine Zeitschrift in Vorbereitung.
