摘要:
Morphing or fitting a brain atlas to a diagnostic image data set of the patient, or to a patient registered to the brain atlas, is enhanced using measurements of one or more physical characteristics of the brain taken with the aid of an instrument as it is being inserted into the brain. The measurements are then compared against known physical characteristics of certain brain structures, thus permitting correlation of the measured physical characteristic to a brain structure. The brain atlas then may be morphed or deformed so that the identified brain structure in the atlas is at or near the position at which the measurement was taken, as known from the tracked position of the instrument.
摘要:
A fiber optic tracking system for tracking substantially rigid object(s) is described. The fiber optic tracking system includes a light source, an optical fiber having a sensing component configured to modify optical signals from the light source, the optical fiber being configured to attach to the substantially rigid object, a detection unit arranged to receive the modified optical signals from the sensing component, and a calculation unit configured to determine a pose of the substantially rigid object in six degrees of freedom based on the modified optical signals.

摘要:
A surgical apparatus includes a surgical device, configured to be manipulated by a user to perform a procedure on a patient, and a computer system. The computer system is programmed to implement control parameters for controlling the surgical device to provide at least one of haptic guidance to the user and a limit on user manipulation of the surgical device, based on a relationship between an anatomy of the patient and at least one of a position, an orientation, a velocity, and an acceleration of a portion of the surgical device, and to adjust the control parameters in response to movement of the anatomy during the procedure.

摘要:
A system and method for providing computer assistance for performing a medical procedure, for example spinal fixation, provides a graphical user interface to guide and/or assist a user, for example a surgeon, performing the medical procedure, whether surgical or non-surgical. The computer-assisted system comprises a software application, for example a spinal fixation application, that may be used for a medical procedure, for example spine linking, etc.
摘要:
A computer-assisted knee replacement apparatus and method comprises a total knee replacement application for assisting, guiding, and planning a total knee replacement procedure. The apparatus and method cooperates with a tracking system to determine implant sizing and location. The apparatus and method also cooperates with the tracking system to determine required tibial and femoral preparation corresponding to the implant size and location and provides real-time monitoring of the tibial and femoral surface preparation procedures.
摘要:
A specially-programmed, computer-assisted surgery system is used to reduce the number of fluoroscopic images required to be taken during the course of a intramedullary nail procedure, eliminates the need for a Steinman pin, and assists the surgeon in properly aligning and securing the nail during insertion.

摘要:
A method for joint replacement is provided. A representation of a first bone is created, and a representation of a second bone is created. Bone preparation for implanting a first implant on the first bone is planned. The first bone to receive the first implant is prepared by manipulating a surgical tool to sculpt the first bone. Bone preparation for implanting a second implant on the second bone after preparing the first bone is planned. The second bone to receive the second implant is prepared by manipulating the surgical tool to sculpt the second bone.
