MRI-Compatible Lower Leg Exerciser Client: Alejandro Roldan Advisor: Naomi Chesler Team: Deborah Yagow (Leader) Amy Lenz (BSAC) Colleen Farrell (Communicator) Val Maharaj (BWIG) Week 3: September 18- September 23 Problem Statement The goal of the project is to design and build a lower leg exerciser that is compatible with MR imaging, ultrasound, and echocardiography so that can conduct cardiopulmonary exercise testing on patients and healthy volunteers during imaging studies. The device must have repeatable loads that can be measured and displayed to the patient for biofeedback. Last Week’s Goals • Buy resistance bands • Finish IRB quizzes • Visit Dr. Thelen’s lab Summary of Accomplishments • Met with radiologist Dr. Reeder • Decided to continue with project • Viewed Dr. Thelen’s device • Finished quizzes • Researched existing devices This Week’s Goals • Brainstorm possible design options • Research and purchase materials Difficulties We decided to continue this project, to improve on any existing/competing devices, and to do it at lower cost. Resistance bands may not be our best option, due to a much greater range of motion and loss of elasticity over time. As we brainstorm this week, we’ll consider other options.Activities Previous Project Hours Colleen: 2.75 Val: 1.25 Amy: 3 Deb: 2 Team: 4.5 Total: 13.5 Project Timeline Week ending: September October November December Task 18 25 2 9 16 21 30 6 13 20 27 4 11 Product Development Background Research Brainstorm Decision matrix First Prototype Construction Testing Deliverables (due) PDS Prelim.
