    摘要: Various methods and devices are provided for navigating through bone. In one embodiment, a bone navigation device is provided and includes a bone penetrating member configured to be implanted in bone and having at least one optical waveguide extending therethrough. The optical waveguide is adapted to illuminate tissue surrounding the device and to receive reflected/transmitted light from the tissue to determine the optical characteristics of the tissue, thus facilitating navigation through the tissue. At least one window can be formed in the bone penetrating member for allowing light from the at least one optical waveguide to illuminate the tissue, and for receiving the reflected light.

    摘要: A method and system for engaging an implant with a bone is disclosed. In one method incorporating principles of the invention, a bone is engaged with an implant by placing a first surface of an implant adjacent to a first bone portion, contacting the first bone portion with at least one first engagement member extending from the first surface, controlling an agitator to agitate the first surface of the implant and the at least one first engagement member, generating at least one first surface feature in the first bone portion with the agitated at least one first engagement member, stilling the first surface implant and the at least one first engagement member and settling the stilled at least one first engagement member into engagement with the at least one first surface feature.
