Neuro Mapper vs MSPT

Neuromapper allows for a more efficient and sophisticated multi-dimensional behavioral brain mapping. It contains multiple cognitive and sensory paradigms that were selected based on current practice, known brain behavioral correlates and from review of neuroimaging and clinical research. Neuromapper allows for customized stimulus selection tailored to the patient's ability level and it will record the patient's accuracy and other sensitive behavioral metrics during baseline testing and incorporate that data into the mapping session to provide a more individualized, tailored testing approach. Neuromapper, in its current form, contains paradigms designed to assess language, learning/memory, executive functions, and vision/neglect. Additional paradigms are being researched and designed and a research consortium is being established between the Medical College and other academic centers to continue testing and developing these paradigms and to answer other important research questions about functional localization and clinical mapping.

The Multiple Sclerosis Performance Test (MSPT) is an iPad®-based assessment tool designed to objectively quantify major motor, visual, and cognitive function for individuals with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The MSPT App is available to healthcare and research institutions involved in clinical research related to the care of individuals with Multiple Sclerosis. The MSPT is based on the Multiple Sclerosis Functional Composite (MSFC) assessment and may include: - MyHealth, a structured patient history questionnaire - Neurological Quality of Life (Neuro-QoL) questionnaire - Processing Speed Test - Visual Memory Test - Manual Dexterity Test - Walking Speed Test The MSPT App records, stores, and displays patient data generated from the assessment modules and compares it to normative data. The MSPT is intended for use by healthcare professionals in a clinical setting and in a manner consistent with clinical judgment. It automates several tests routinely administered to MS patients. The MSPT does not provide any recommendations or conclusions related to diagnosis or treatment. Results are provided on an informational basis only.
