Abstract: Systems, methods, and storage media for robot-assisted laser osteotomy are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: receive osteotomy data obtained in connection with robot-assisted laser osteotomy; analyse the osteotomy data to determine one or more attributes associated with osteotomy; and determine, based on the one or more attributes, one or more functions associated with osteotomy.

Abstract: Systems and methods for intraoperative implant fit analysis and longevity prediction for a prosthetic implant to be integrated with the physiological tissue of a patient, the method comprising the steps of: collection of data via a plurality of sensors situated in proximity to the tissue and implant and a plurality of data sources; determining tissue and implant state and morphology based on the collected data; generating compatibility information between the tissue and implant based on the determined tissue and implant state and morphology; processing compatibility information into a form adapted for evaluation against a pre-determined comparator; generating a means of predicting postoperative implant performance and longevity utilising the historical dataset of comparison information and postoperative results; and generating and providing corrective information for alteration of the tissue state and morphology for improved postoperative implant performance and longevity.

Abstract: A system for working biological tissue, the system comprising: a tool comprising a laser operable to perform at least one action of work; positioning means for positioning the tool relative to the biological tissue to perform the at least one action of work; a controller; storage storing electronic program instructions for controlling the controller; and an input means; wherein the controller is operable, under control of the electronic program instructions, to: receive input via the input means; process the input and, on the basis of the processing, control the positioning means and the tool to work the biological tissue.

Abstract: An orthopaedic implant for use with or as part of an orthopaedic implant system, comprising: a body having a bone facing surface configured to mate with a prepared surface of a bone; and bone engaging means extending from said bone facing surface and being adapted to extend into corresponding cavities formed in the prepared surface of the bone when said body is mated with the bone, said bone engaging means comprising one or more of: guiding means adapted to guide the implant into its fixated position with the bone; integration means adapted to promote integration of the implant with the bone; and securing means adapted to secure the implant to the prepared surface of the bone.
