Abstract: A modular fluoro-navigation instrument including a base made of a substantially radiotransparent material. The base is intended to be rigidly secured to a patient's bone and a tracker rigidly attachable to the base. The instrument has a registration phantom separate from the tracker which includes a plurality of radiopaque fiducials. The base and the registration phantom includes respective attachment members for reproducibly attaching the registration phantom to the base.

Abstract: A fluoro-navigation system for navigating a tool relative to a medical image. The system includes a motorized X-ray imaging system for acquiring a plurality of images of a region of interest of a patient, the position of each image being known. Also included is a localization system, a registration phantom with a plurality of radiopaque fiducials, a tracker for being tracked by the localization system, a processor for receiving the plurality of images and for reconstructing a 3D medical image from the images using radiopaque fiducials visible in the plurality of images. Also included is base made of a substantially radiotransparent material, to be rigidly secured to a patient's bone and having a reproducible fixation system for attaching the registration phantom and/or tracker.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for minimally invasive attachment of a tracker (20) and/or a registration phantom (30) to a patient's bone, comprising a base (10) made of a substantially radiotransparent material, characterized in that the base (10) comprises: a support surface (11) intended to face the bone, a plurality of non-parallel through holes (14) for passing a respective percutaneous pin (2) through the base (10); at least one slot (15) extending from an edge of the base (10) in a direction transversal to the through holes (14), said slot (15) passing throughout the base (10) until the support surface (11) and being intended to engage a percutaneous pin (2) implanted into the patient's bone so as to allow the base (10) to slide along said pin (2); and a reproducible fixation system for attaching the tracker (20) and/or the registration phantom (30) to the base.
