  • Publication number: 20220401131
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods for preparing a spinal rod that enable the digital mapping of rod contours to produce spinal rods that conform to an ideal rod trajectory, which reduces spinal rod to screw head misalignment. Reducing spinal rod to screw head misalignment helps reduce a failure rate of spinal rods in patients. In invasive spinal fusion surgeries, a digital three-dimensional representation may be generated of a flexible rod formed to align with screws installed in the patient. In minimally invasive surgeries, a digital three-dimensional representation may be generated using pointers. A surgeon may adjust the digital three-dimensional representation via a graphical user interface. Bending instructions may be generated from the digital three-dimensional representation that direct how a spinal rod should be bent using a bending tool. The final spinal rod accounts for the anatomical environment around the screws installed in the patient.

  • Patent number: 11191853
    Abstract: A marker for imaging includes a bio-dissolvable material and a contrast agent configured to provide contrast during an imaging procedure. A method can include forming a marker for imaging from a bio-dissolvable material and impregnating the bio-dissolvable material with a contrast agent. A method can include implanting a bio-dissolvable marker for imaging into a patient.
