摘要:
A method and a device is provided for determining a rotational position of a first feature of a first bone section relative to a second feature of a second bone section, the method comprises the steps of determining a longitudinal axis of a bone and determining a plane extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the bone, determining a first projected vector representing a first direction defined by a feature of the first bone section, determining a second projected vector representing a second direction defined by a feature of the second bone section, and determining an angle between the first projected vector and the second projected vector.

The present invention provides a handheld robot for orthopedic surgery and a control method thereof. The handheld robot of the present invention includes a main body, a grip, a kinematic mechanism, a tool connector, a tool, a force sensor and a positioning unit. The handheld robot of the present invention combines the position/orientation information of the tool acquired by the positioning unit with the force/torque information acquired by the force sensor, and utilizes the combined information to adjust the position of the tool so as to keep the tool within the range/path of a predetermined operation plan. In this way, the precision of the orthopedic surgery can be enhanced, and the error occurred during the surgery can be minimized.

A number of improvements are provided relating to computer aided surgery utilizing an on tool tracking system. The various improvements relate generally to both the methods used during computer aided surgery and the devices used during such procedures. Other improvements relate to the structure of the tools used during a procedure and how the tools can be controlled using the OTT device. Still other improvements relate to methods of providing feedback during a procedure to improve either the efficiency or quality, or both, for a procedure including the rate of and type of data processed depending upon a CAS mode.

A method of manufacturing an arthroplasty jig is disclosed herein. The method may include the following: generate a bone model, wherein the bone model includes a three dimensional computer model of at least a portion of a joint surface of a bone of a patient joint to undergo an arthroplasty procedure; generate an implant model, wherein the implant model includes a three dimensional computer model of at least a portion of a joint surface of an arthroplasty implant to be used in the arthroplasty procedure; assess a characteristic associated with the patient joint; generate a modified joint surface of the implant model by modifying at least a portion of a joint surface of the implant model according to the characteristic; and shape match the modified joint surface of the implant model and a corresponding joint surface of the bone model.
摘要:
A method of determining an optimal position of a glenoid implant. The method includes identifying a center point of a patient's glenoid fossa based on an image of the patient's glenoid fossa; determining the optimal position of the glenoid implant based on the location of the center point relative to a medial point of the patient's scapula; and selecting orientation of an alignment pin based on the determined optimal glenoid implant position such that the glenoid fossa will be prepared to receive the glenoid implant at the optimal position when the glenoid fossa is prepared with a cutting device or guide coupled to the alignment pin.
摘要:
A surgical device having an assembly used to position a patient-specific surgical instrument with a bone of a patient, the assembly having radio-opaque and radiolucent portions that provide an indication of the instrument, and corresponding implant's alignment with respect to the bone, as well as an indication that the angle of the projection (or orientation of the view) of the alignment guide to assess the placement of the alignment guide relative to the underlying bony anatomy. The radio-opaque portion may include a plurality of Kirschner wires, fiducial markers, and may include a void allowing for alignment down a first length of the radio-opaque portion. Embodiments may be used with intra-operative fluoroscopy.
摘要:
A targeting guide for locating a surgical target site, for example a hole in a distal end of an implanted intramedullary nail, the targeting guide comprising: a first indicator having an identifiable reference point, the first indicator being mounted on a first handle having a first longitudinal axis; a second indicator having an identifiable reference point, the second indicator being mounted on a second handle having a second longitudinal axis; the indicators being radially spaced from one another with respect to said target site and being at least partially radiopaque so that they are imageable such that their respective reference points can be identified; a rig on which the first and second indicators are mountable such that each indicator is independently moveable with respect to the rig along the respective longitudinal axis of its handle, independently moveable with respect to the rig along at least one further axis and lockable with respect to the rig in a selected position along each of said axes; wherein, in use, the reference point of each indicator is capable of being aligned with a reference point of the target site using imaging means, the aligned indicators providing a guide to the target site for a drill, trocar or other surgical instrument or tool.
摘要:
A surgical template system for use in working on a bone comprises: a tool guide block (2) comprising at least one guide aperture (200) for receiving and guiding a tool to work on a bone; locating means (1) comprising a plurality of locating members (6), each member having a respective end surface (61) for positioning against a surface of the bone; and attachment means (3) for non-adjustably attaching the tool guide block to the locating means such that, when attached, the member end surfaces are secured in fixed position with respect to each other, for engaging different respective portions of the surface of the bone, and the at least one guide aperture is secured in a fixed position with respect to the end surfaces. Corresponding methods of manufacturing a surgical template system, methods of manufacturing locating means for a surgical template system, methods of fitting a prosthesis to a bone, surgical methods, and surgical apparatus are described.
