These systems support procedures such as deep brain stimulation, stereoelectroencephalography (SEEG) and laser interstitial thermal therapy (LITT), where reliable software performance is an important part of system safety and effectiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Development of the platform\u2019s medical device software follows a lifecycle process aligned with IEC 62304, including verification activities appropriate to its software safety classification. Static analysis contributes to that verification effort by examining code for defect classes that are difficult to expose through functional testing alone, including memory errors, resource leaks, concurrency defects and undefined behaviour. It also supports conformance checking against the MISRA C coding standard and identifies weaknesses catalogued under CWE.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/www.intelligentcio.com\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/09\/neurosinpire_aligning_DBS_electrodes_with_target_gen.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-171434\" style=\"width:346px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.intelligentcio.com\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/09\/neurosinpire_aligning_DBS_electrodes_with_target_gen.webp 1000w, https:\/\/www.intelligentcio.com\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/09\/neurosinpire_aligning_DBS_electrodes_with_target_gen-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.intelligentcio.com\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/20\/2026\/09\/neurosinpire_aligning_DBS_electrodes_with_target_gen-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe work in a domain where software quality must be demonstrated, not assumed. Automated static analysis is a routine part of our engineering workflow, so extending its use to the neuro | mate platform was a straightforward decision. It gives us consistent, repeatable analysis across the codebase and supports the verification records used in design reviews and regulatory activities,\u201d said Lee Turl, Director and General Manager, Renishaw Neuro Solutions Ltd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMedical device teams like Renishaw Neuro Solutions need analysis they can rely on and evidence they can stand behind.
