Legal Regulation to Brain-Computer Interfaces in Medicine
Unlike other brain neurotechnologies and traditional therapies,neurodata can be transmitted,interpreted and recorded through brain-computer interfaces.Neurodata can be decoded to not only reflect health information,but also to reveal mental privacy.In addition,brain-computer interfaces can directly intervene in patients'emotions,thoughts,and even behaviors through stimulation.Brain-computer interfaces in medicine should be moderately regulated,taking into account the rights to life and physical health and human dignity,the rational use of neurodata and privacy protection.Specific regulatory paths include:strict ethical review of the research about brain-computer interfaces in medicine,special approval and supervision of brain-computer interface medical devices,special procedural safeguards for informed consent,and specialized legislative protection of neurodata.
