    Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for identifying a region of interest are provided. A plurality of skeletal landmarks may be identified from an image received from an imaging device. A pose of a patient may be determined based on the plurality of skeletal landmarks. A region of interest may be identified on the patient based on the determined pose. Instructions may be automatically provided to the controller to adjust a pose of a surgical instrument relative to the region of interest. The plurality of skeletal landmarks may be tracked for movement. The region of interest may be updated when movement of the plurality of skeletal landmarks is detected.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for planning the position of surgical hardware to be robotically implanted in a subject. The system extracts information about the planned position of hardware from an operative plan based on preoperative images, and converts this information into mathematical vectors. Intraoperatively, at least one three-dimensional scan of the operative site is obtained. The intraoperative images are processed by image analysis, to which are applied artificial intelligence algorithms for feature identification. The vectors derived from the preoperative plan are superimposed on identified anatomical features from the processed intraoperative images. The surgical plan can then be updated intraoperatively, taking into account any shift in position of the anatomical features between the preoperative images and the intraoperative images, prior to robotic insertion of the hardware.

    Abstract: A robotic surgical system according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure includes a first robot arm coupled to a second robot arm, where a surgical tool is attached to the first robot arm and an ultrasonic sensor is attached to the second robot arm. Accordingly, when the first robot arm is moved to position the surgical tool adjacent a target site of a patient, the second robot arm is also moved to position the ultrasonic sensor adjacent the surgical tool and the target site. In some examples, images generated by the ultrasonic sensor may be used to determine layers of fascia of the patient at the target site. Subsequently, the surgical tool may move through the layers of fascia while continuing to receive real-time images of the tissue displacement instrument relative to the target site from the ultrasonic sensor.
