Abstract: A method of evaluating a bone fracture reduction includes imaging, intraoperatively, a fractured bone to obtain a representation of the fractured bone in a computing system. The fractured bone defines at least first and second bone fragments separated by a fracture. The method includes imaging a contralateral bone of the patient to obtain a representation of the contralateral bone in the computing system and further includes generating, intraoperatively in the computing system, a virtual model of the fractured bone from data presented in the representation of the fractured bone and a virtual model of the contralateral bone from data presented in the representation of the contralateral bone. The method includes comparing, intraoperatively in the computing system, a spatial dimension measured with respect to the virtual model of the fractured bone with a corresponding spatial dimension measured with respect to the virtual model of the contralateral bone.

Abstract: A plug connector part for electrically contacting a mating plug connector part includes: a contact element, which is engageable in a plug-in manner with a mating contact element of an associated mating plug connector part in an insertion direction for electrical contacting; and a lance element that includes an at least partially resilient shaft and a contacting portion, the shaft being connected to the contact element at a first end and the contacting portion being arranged at a second end of the shaft such that the contacting portion remains in electrical contact with the mating contact element of the mating plug connector part when the connector part is released from the mating plug connector part after the electrical contact between the contact element and the mating contact element has already been broken.
