Abstract: A pre-operative surgical planning system utilizes machine learning classification to provide candidate elements of a pre-operative surgical plan. The pre-operative surgical planning system may comprise a machine learning reconstruction engine that is trained with artificial computer models of physiologically compromised anatomical structures.

Abstract: In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful to orthopedic components. In some embodiments, an orthopedic component comprises a stem portion including a proximal end and a distal end, wherein the stem portion is configured to be inserted into a bone, an anatomical portion located at the proximal end of the stem portion, and a plate extending away from the stem portion such that a gap exists between the plate and the stem portion, wherein at least a portion of the plate extends toward the distal end of the stem portion.

Abstract: Convertible shoulder arthroplasty systems and configurations for components thereof are described. In some embodiments, an implant component is provided. The implant component includes one of a glenoid component comprising a concave outer surface, and a glenosphere component comprising a convex outer surface. The system may also include one of a first baseplate comprising a central bossed portion extending from an underside thereof and a central aperture disposed therethrough or a second baseplate comprising a central bossed portion extending from a top side thereof and a central aperture disposed there through. In some implementations, an anchor boss comprising a central aperture extending therethrough is provided. The system may include a central compression screw configured to be secured through the central aperture and, thereby, securely compress the first baseplate, the second baseplate or the anchor boss against the patient bone.

Abstract: A joint spacer is provided for treatment of a joint of a human subject, the joint spacer including a pouch having a wall including a dermal graft material. The joint spacer is configured to be inserted into a space of the joint, and is shaped, when the pouch is inserted into the space and filled, to provide mechanical support to the joint. Other embodiments are also described.

Abstract: An interactive display is provide with a frame for supporting the display, a viewing orientation selector which electronically changes the orientation of the image on the display within the frame and the frame may be placed in different orientations and the selector used to change the image to align with the orientation.

Abstract: A table is provided which houses a computer system including a display, a plurality of input and output devices, and one or more viewing orientation controls. The display is provided within the frame of the table in a substantially vertical alignment and under a flat surface which is made of a transparent or translucent material, such as plastic. The flat surface allows for viewing of the display from any seating position at the table, and further may protect the display from any fluids that may be spilled or sprayed onto the flat surface. The input and output devices may be provided within enclosures which prevent damage from fluids, yet still allow user access. The viewing orientation controls allow a plurality of users to rotate the display or an image on the display so that the image is oriented to a specific seating position. The computer may be connected to a network system, such as the Internet, so as to allow user interaction with a multitude of internal or external data sources.
