  • Publication number: 20230390004
    Abstract: A system and method may use a robotic arm to perform a range of motion test for use in generating information related to kinematic alignment in a total or partial knee arthroplasty. A method may include controlling a robotic arm to move a tibia throughout a range of motion for a knee. A series of measurements of gap distance for the knee may be used to determine a tibial resection location for the tibia. The method may include updating a plan (e.g., 3D, preoperative) for an orthopedic procedure on the knee with the tibial resection location.
    Type: Application
