Abstract: A system and computer-implemented method for manufacturing an orthopedic implant involves segmenting features in an image of anatomy. Anatomic elements can be isolated. Spatial relationships between the isolated anatomic elements can be manipulated. Negative space between anatomic elements is mapped before and/or after manipulating the spatial relationships. At least a portion of the negative space can be filled with a virtual implant. The virtual implant can be used to design and manufacture a physical implant.

Abstract: Systems and methods for providing assistance to a surgeon during an implant surgery are disclosed. A method includes defining areas of interest in diagnostic data of a patient and defining a screw bone type based on the surgeon's input. Post defining the areas of interest, salient points are determined for the areas of interest. Successively, an XZ angle, an XY angle, and a position entry point for a screw are determined based on the salient points of the areas of interest. Successively, a maximum screw diameter and a length of the screw are determined based on the salient points. Thereafter, the screw is identified and suggested to the surgeon for usage during the implant surgery.

Abstract: Systems and methods for designing and implementing patient-specific surgical procedures and/or medical devices are disclosed. In some embodiments, a method includes receiving a patient data set of a patient. The patient data set is compared to a plurality of reference patient data sets, wherein each of the plurality of reference patient data sets is associated with a corresponding reference patient. A subset of the plurality of reference patient data sets is selected based, at least partly, on similarity to the patient data set and treatment outcome of the corresponding reference patient. Based on the selected subset, at least one surgical procedure or medical device design for treating the patient is generated.

Abstract: Systems and methods for verifying the quality of patient specific implants are disclosed. A system can generate implant data, such as design files or fabrication instructions, for manufacturing the implant. The system can manage access to the implant data based on authentication levels. Based on the determined authentication level of the user requesting access to the implant data, the system can permit the user to access some or all of the implant data. The system can perform a quality check on a manufactured implant by scanning the manufactured implant to identify any errors in the manufactured implant.

Abstract: Systems and methods for designing and implementing patient-specific surgical procedures and/or medical devices are disclosed. An example method includes obtaining, first multi-dimensional image data of an anatomical region of a patient in a first loading state; determining, from the first multi-dimensional image data, regions corresponding to anatomic elements of a spine; identifying, in each region, a first set landmarks; obtaining, a second multi-dimensional image data of the anatomical region comprising the spine of the patient in a second loading state; identifying a second set of landmarks from the second multi-dimensional image data that map to the first set of landmarks; obtaining an aligned multi-dimensional image data of the patient's spine; generating a design for a medical implant based on spinopelvic parameters measured from the aligned multi-dimensional image data; and causing a medical implant to be manufactured by sending the design for the medical implement to a manufacturing device.

Abstract: A personalized fixation system includes a surgical planning software tool configured to adjust relationships of relevant anatomy of a subject, at least one bone anchor, a plate having a shape that does not conform to a single plane, the plate configured to accept the at least one bone anchor, wherein the shape of the plate is at least partially determined by the surgical planning software tool, and wherein the plate includes at least one node having a hole configured to receive the at least one bone anchor, and a locking element configured to connect the at least one bone anchor to the plate, wherein the plate is manufactured using additive manufacturing.

Abstract: Systems and methods for storing and accessing healthcare data in blockchain managed digital filing cabinets are disclosed. The system can receive and store patient healthcare data from sources such as wearable devices, an implant, patient devices, healthcare provider devices, databases, cloud storage accounts, healthcare databases, or digital filing cabinets. The system can convert the healthcare into non-fungible tokens on a blockchain to protect the healthcare data from being accessed by nefarious actors. The system can manage access to the healthcare data based on authentication rules.

Abstract: An interbody implant system for use in the spine includes a base comprising two or more bone contacting surfaces, at least one recess in at least one of the two or more bone contacting surfaces, the recess configured for containing a tooth, a deployable tooth to provide fixation between the base and the anatomy of a subject, a break-away bridge between the tooth and the base for providing a first relative position between the tooth and the base, and a locking mechanism for providing a second relative position between the tooth and the base.

Abstract: Systems and methods for assisting a surgeon with implant during a surgery are disclosed. A method includes defining areas of interest in diagnostic data of a patient and defining an implant type. Post defining the areas of interest, salient points are determined for the areas of interest. Successively, an XZ angle, an XY angle, and a position entry point for an implant are determined based on the salient points of the areas of interest. In spinal procedures, a maximum screw diameter and a length of the spinal screw are successively determined based on the salient points. Based on determined length and diameter, a spinal screw and a matching screw guide is determined. Thereafter, the spinal screw and the screw guide is printed using a Three-Dimensional (3D) printer. Such printed spinal screw and screw guide could be used by the surgeon during the spinal surgery.
