AI-Powered Analysis
Advanced algorithms analyze performance at electrosurgery points, evaluating tip stability and proximity with quantitative metrics benchmarked against published standards.
Progressive Assessment
Four shapes of increasing complexity allow stratification by experience level, from trainees to interventional specialists, with measurable improvement tracking.
Evidence-Based Innovation
Four comprehensive studies validate the HAM system's effectiveness in skill assessment and training
Study 1: Experience Stratification
Demonstrated effective differentiation between trainees, standard endoscopists, and interventional specialists.
Study 2: Skill Improvement
Structured training showed significant improvements in accuracy and speed through repeated practice sessions.
