SCOPE: This document details the required functionality and general requirements for upgrade of the Computer Assisted Minimal Invasive Surgery (CAMIS) Unit. 2. SYSTEM FUNCTIONAL SPECIFICATIONS: The system shall include capability to localize, process, analyze and display Magnetic Resonance Images (MRI) and Computed Tomography (CT) images for surgical planning and frameless stereotactic surgery. The system shall also combine freehand infrared localizer, advanced system architecture, and integrated software for unparalleled performance in the operating room. Software shall support intracranial surgical procedures involving space occupying lesions or malformations (including soft tissue, vascular, and osseous) and spinal surgical procedures involving spinal stabilization, neural decompression, or resection of spinal neoplasms. Software shall also permit interactive and real-time localization and registration of spinal anatomy. A choice of three surgery modes shall be available: planning, triplaner, and oblique displays. Planning mode shall be an interactive display of ideal surgical pathway. Triplaner mode shall display orthogonal planes defined by tip of pointer/probe. Oblique mode shall display oblique orientations in 3 planes -- perpendicular to, parallel to, and at the tip of the pointer probe. There shall also be a choice of four display selections: segmentation, color multiplaner reformatting, image edit, and templates. Segmentation display shall have the ability to display multiple anatomic or functional areas in 3D. Volumes of interest can be rendered and assigned specific color and degree of transparency. Color Multiplaner Reformatting display shall display reformatted images in orthogonal and oblique planes with regions of interest highlighted in color. Image Edit display shall allow acquired CT image data to be edited for headrest and gantry removal. Template display shall show custom templates for surgeon preference in graphical display. 3. HARDWARE INSTALLATION: Working with 74th MDSS/SGSI personnel, the contractor shall upgrade and configure a system into the existing CAMIS unit. See configuration information below. 4.
