Regulatory Science Tools Catalog

AI ML
Statistical tools (java GUI and R package) to analyze, size, and simulate multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) reader studies
MID
Best practices for standardized performance testing of infrared thermographs intended for fever screening
MID
Digital model available on NIH's 3D Print Exchange site that can be used to fabricate tissue simulating phantoms with biomimetic vascular structures derived from a clinical image
InterOp
A method to estimate device-specific noise from ECG records for algorithm testing
Neurology
Non-clinical biomarkers of brain injury derived from epidermal and epidural electroencephalographs
MID
A mathematically easy to understand and experimentally simple method to quantitatively and objectively evaluate endoscope geometric distortion
Materials Program Image
A tool to determine the extractables profile of additive-manufactured orthopedic casts produced by fused filament fabrication method
Cardiovascualar
A tool to assist with evaluating and quantifying contractile response of non-excitatory electrical stimulation signals including CCM in vitro using 2D human cardiomyocyte models
Cardiovascualar
A simple and compliant fluid reservoir appropriate for in-vitro blood trauma testing.
Orthopaedics
Provides 16 mock intervertebral body fusion device (that is, a spinal cage) designs with three lattice structure implementations. Designs are provided in stereolithography (STL) file format so they may be fabricated using additively manufacturing (AM) technologies.
Cardiovascualar
This tool provides a step-by-step protocol to design a recirculating flow loop test system and perform in vitro thrombogenicity testing of catheter-like blood-contacting medical devices and materials using blood from several animal species. The protocol also provides details about different markers for thrombogenicity testing.
CM&S Program Image
A "threshold-based" validation approach that provides a well-defined acceptance criterion, which is a function of how close the simulation and experimental results are to the safety threshold, for establishing the model validity.
Cardiovascualar
An implementation of a canine action potential model appropriate for comprehensive parameter sensitivity analysis and uncertainty quantification
Materials Program Image
Conduct screening level risk assessments to aid in the biocompatibility evaluation of bulk additives and impurities in polymeric medical device components
Materials Program Image
Predicts the impact of extraction conditions, sample geometry and material properties on extraction test efficiency
MID
A software program written in Matlab for analyzing color performance testing data in endoscopy devices
