    摘要: A computer-assisted surgery (CAS) navigation assembly comprises a micro-electromechanical sensor (MEMS) navigation unit having one or more MEMS to provide at least orientation data. A support receives the MEMS navigation unit therein, the support being adapted to be mounted on the instrument in a fixed orientation relative to established navigated features of the instrument. At least two mating ball-in-socket features are disposed between the MEMS navigation unit and the support at opposed ends thereof for releasably engaging the MEMS navigation unit in precise orientational alignment within the receptacle, the at least two mating ball-in-socket features comprising catches aligned along an axis extending between the opposed ends, at least one of the catches being a biased catch. A method of connecting a MEMS navigation unit with a mating support fixed to a CAS instrument navigated by the CAS system is also provided.

    摘要: A system for creating at least one model of a bone and implanted implant comprises a processing unit; and a non-transitory computer-readable memory communicatively coupled to the processing unit and comprising computer-readable program instructions executable by the processing unit for: obtaining at least one image of at least part of a bone and of an implanted implant on the bone, the at least one image being patient specific, obtaining a virtual model of the implanted implant using an identity of the implanted implant, overlaying the virtual model of the implanted implant on the at least one image to determine a relative orientation of the implanted implant relative to the bone in the at least one image, and generating and outputting a current bone and implant model using the at least one image, the virtual model of the implanted implant and the overlaying.
