  • INSTRUMENTS FOR NAVIGATED ORTHOPEDIC SURGERIES
    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.

  • BONE LANDMARKS EXTRACTION BY BONE SURFACE PALPATION USING BALL TIP STYLUS FOR COMPUTER ASSISTED SURGERY NAVIGATION
    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.
