  • Publication number: 20260120302
    Abstract: A system for computer assisted navigation during surgery includes a computer platform that operates to register a target surgical area of a patient. In certain cases, a process includes: obtaining a pre-op CT image of a pelvic region of a patient and intra-operatively obtaining a point cloud data about the pelvic region with a navigated instrument, generating a 3D bone model which excludes non-targeted area such as a femur, and then merging the 3D bone model to the point cloud to register the target surgical area.

  • Publication number: 20250262008
    Abstract: A surgical robot system can determine a plurality of actions to be completed by a surgical robot station during a surgery. The surgical robot system can determine potential positions in an operating room that the surgical robot station can be positioned during the surgery. The surgical robot system generates a score associated with the determined positions and determines an optimal position of the surgical robot station for display based on the generated scores.

  • Publication number: 20240225749
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods for computer-assisted navigation and/or robot-assisted surgery. Navigable instrumentation, which are capable of being navigated by a surgeon using the surgical robot system, allow for the navigated movement of instruments or other surgical devices. The instruments may be suitable for procedures involving navigated and/or robotic total knee arthroplasty, for example.

  • Publication number: 20240164844
    Abstract: A system for computer assisted navigation during surgery. At least one processor operates to identify locations of fiducials of a reference element on a ball tip stylus in images obtained from tracking cameras with at least partially overlapping field-of-views imaging the ball tip stylus with a ball palpating a surface of a bone. Operations determine locations of a center of the ball based on the locations of the fiducials of the reference element, and define an offset-acquired surface of the bone based on mathematically connecting the locations of the center of the ball. Operations determine local normal vectors to the offset-acquired surface for the locations of the center of the ball. Operations translate the offset-acquired surface of the bone toward the surface of the bone along the local normal vectors based on a radius of the ball to define an acquired surface of the bone.
