EFI Moves: Individualized Diagnostics and Therapy Monitoring in MotionThe vision of the EFIMoves project is to combine modern
and
multimodal medical technological approaches for a
diagnostic
workup enabling a qualitative and quantitative assessment
of
impaired movement allowing a sustainable benchmarking of
medical treatment. Mobile and integrated sensor based
movement analysis provides a cost-effective, easy
applicable, and individualized mobile assessment of any
given movement. This sensor-based movement detection
will
be mirrored by modern high-tech diagnostic approaches
using
imaging modalities, MRI, biomechanical movement
analysis.This proposed concept has the potential to be applicable
to
any disorder affecting movement and mobility, however, as
a
proof-of-principle, the present project will focus
on
disorders. | Project manager: Prof. Dr. med. Jürgen Winkler, Prof. Dr. Jochen Klucken
