Abstract: A device comprises at least one processor and memory including instructions that when executed by the at least one processor cause the at least one processor to: generate, based on at least one image of a spine within a body, a set of possible screw poses for implanting at least one screw into the spine during a surgical procedure; evaluate each possible screw pose based on at least one consideration associated with the surgical procedure; select, based on the evaluation, at least one screw pose from the set of possible screw poses; and output an indication of the selected at least one screw pose to a user interface.

Abstract: A method of generating a virtual MRI image includes receiving an initial MRI image of a patient in a first position, the initial MRI image depicting at least a portion of an anatomy of the patient; receiving a plurality of images of the patient in a second position, each of the plurality of images depicting at least a plurality of bony elements within the portion of the patient's anatomy; receiving soft tissue information corresponding to at least a plurality of soft tissue elements within the portion of the patient's anatomy; segmenting the initial MRI image to identify a depiction of each of the plurality of bony elements and each of the plurality of soft tissue elements within the initial MRI image; and generating a virtual MRI image based on the MRI image, the plurality of images, and the soft tissue information.
