  • Publication number: 20230233259
    Abstract: Examples of systems and methods described herein may utilize augmented reality devices and pointers in generating intra-operative plans and providing guidance for knee surgery. A pointer may indicate one or more anatomical points. An augmented reality device may detect positions of knee anatomical features based on a position of the pointer and positions of fiducials associated with a marker affixed to body part proximate to a knee, such as a femur or a tibia. The augmented reality device may generate a planned resection plane based on the positions of the knee anatomical features, and determine an actual resection plane based on a view of a resection guide having a marker inserted in the guide. The augmented reality device may provide guidance to position the guide to align the actual resection plane with the planned resection plane.
