Immediate Action Items:

• Robb
  • Summarize the protocol on equilibration in pressure calibration specifications wiki page.
  • Attempt pressure sensor calibration (using a foam material).
  • Send the team a finalized design of patella marker assembly for review.
• Snehal
  • Respond requests in the infrastructure page of tissue testing experimentation.
  • Respond requests in tissue sample preparation pages.
  • Reach out to Shannon (from imaging facility) to acquire imaging settings from sessions from November 14, 2013, January 29, 2014 and February 17, 2014.
  • Get imaging data from Shannon (from imaging facility) from January 29, 2014 session.
  • Try to find another knee specimen for next imaging trial.
  • Set up another imaging trial.
• Craig
  • Compare all T1 weighted images (from all imaging trial sessions and from previous work) and summarize the information on imaging specifications page.
  • Compare all 3D DESS images (from all imaging trial sessions) and summarize the information on imaging specifications page.
  • Compare the MESE images (from all imaging trial sessions) and summarize the information.
• Ahmet
  • Provide the notes from February 17, 2014 full mock-up trial imaging session in the imaging specifications wiki page.
  • Promote community review of specimen and joint testing specifications through Biomch-L.
• Cara

  • Add the team to SimTk project site on general purpose data management approaches.

  • Summarize Open Knee related data management information on relevant wiki page.
• Snehal and Craig
  • Dissect the current knee specimen to assess tissue condition, cartilage thickness (wait till another test specimen is acquired).

Notes:

1. Discuss immediate action items from the last meeting.
   • Robb and Dylan worked on the pressure sensor calibration and will summarize the trial on the pressure calibration specifications page.
   • Another attempt at calibration will also be made using foam samples.
   • Robb received a version of the 3D model of the patella marker. Once the design is agreed upon by the team, the marker can be printed this week.
   • Robb will send the patella marker assembly design to Craig and other members (if necessary).
   • Robotics testing related upgrades are progressing. Software issues will be dealt with in the coming days.
   • Craig, Snehal and Ahmet conducted another trial imaging session at the UH imaging facility. See updates on imaging for details.
