Abstract: A system and method for determining the spatial position and the shape of a surgical instrument (1) having a deformable body (2) by: providing an elasticity model of the surgical instrument (1); defining at least one parameter which influences the shape of the instrument (1); determining the spatial position and/or orientation of at least one tracking sensor (3) of the surgical instrument (1); determining the value of the at least one parameter; calculating the position and/or orientation of at least one part of the surgical instrument (1) with the aid of the elasticity model together with the determined value of the at least one parameter and the determined spatial position and/or orientation of the at least one tracking sensor (3). The present invention also relates to a surgical instrument (1) having a deformable body (2) comprising at least two sensors (3, 4), wherein at least one sensor is a tracking sensor (3) and at least one other sensor is a sensor (4) which allows the value of a predetermined parameter influences the shape of the instrument (1) to be determined.

Abstract: A radiotherapy feedback device is provided which provides one of a plurality of indication signals for presentation to a surgeon based on the status of a current surgical procedure. In some aspects, an indication signal is provided to the surgeon if the surgical procedure on an anatomical structure is of sufficient status so as to respond well to subsequent radiotherapy.

Abstract: A bone clamp for attachment to a bone includes a first lever and a second lever that are connected to each other by a connection, a sliding block, and a screw. The first lever has a first lever arm and a second lever arm, and the second lever has a third lever arm and a fourth lever arm, the second ends of which are configured to contact the bone. The sliding block is slidably attached to the first lever arm, the screw is pivotably mounted in the sliding block, the first lever arm includes a threaded surface for engaging with the screw mounted in the sliding block, and the sliding block includes a sliding surface on which the third lever arm slides such that the second ends of the levers approach each other when the sliding block moves along the first lever arm.

Abstract: A computer-implemented medical data processing method for controlling a geometric status of a mechatronic articulable arm. Current geometric status data is acquired describing a current geometric status of the mechatronic articulable arm defined by a set of current spatial relationship between connected elements of the mechatronic articulable arm. Changed geometric status data describing a changed geometric status of the mechatronic articulable arm defined by a set of changed spatial relationship between the connected elements is determined based on current device position data, the current geometric status data, changed device position data, and device definition data. Instruction data describing an instruction for changing the geometric status of the mechatronic articulable arm from the current geometric status to the changed geometric status is determined. The instruction describes changes from the current spatial relationship to the changed spatial relationship.
