Publication number: 20240303937Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for generating a 3D body mesh. The system receives an image that includes a depiction of a real-world object in a real-world environment. The system applies a first machine learning model to a portion of the image that depicts the real-world object to predict a tensor of heatmaps representing vertex positions of a plurality of triangles of a 3D mesh corresponding to the real-world object. First and second heatmaps of the tensor represent respectively first and second groups of possible coordinates for a first vertex of a first triangle of the plurality of triangles. The system generates the 3D mesh based on the selected subset of the tensor of heatmaps.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2023Publication date: September 12, 2024Inventors: Riza Alp Guler, Antonios Kakolyris, Iason Kokkinos, Petros Koutras, Eric-Tuan Le, Georgios Papandreou, Efstratios Skordos, Himmy Tam

Publication number: 20240024036Abstract: There is provided a method to perform bone resection using a planer. Under guidance of a surgical navigation system, and, optionally, under command of a robotic system, a trackable surgical instrument is guided to a target pose on a target bone. The bone may be a femur or tibia in a TKA. The trackable instrument comprises a drill or a pin guide for mounting a pair of pins, preferably graduated pins to select a resection depth. A pin end is inserted into the planer and the planer operated to resect until the pin end bottoms out. A robot may command movement of the trackable instrument to the target pose.
