  • Patent number: 12380644
    Abstract: A three-dimensional image transformation, executing on one or more computer systems, can mathematically transform a first two-dimensional image space onto a second two-dimensional image space using a three-dimensional image space. The three-dimensional image transformation can project the three-dimensional image space onto the first two-dimensional image space to map the first two-dimensional image space to the three-dimensional image space. Thereafter, the three-dimensional image transformation can project the second two-dimensional image space onto the three-dimensional image space to map the three-dimensional image space to the second two-dimensional image space.

  • Publication number: 20250025311
    Abstract: An implantable, asymmetrical right or left knee prosthesis for the arthritic, aging, ligament-deficient knee comprising a femoral component, a tibial component and a patella component, forming three interactive knee compartments mainly the lateral, medial, and femoral patellar compartments, articulating together with a dual, axial pivot knee motion. This dual pivot motion pattern is accomplished by four femoral component radii coacting with four reciprocal proximal tibial surface recesses (in a variety of locations on the tibia based on surgeon choice and patient anatomy), accomplishing initial external femur rotation on the tibia (first pivot location), guiding alignment of the femoral-patellar groove with the patellar quadriceps muscle providing knee strength, durability, and stability.
