    摘要: Methods and systems for planning a joint replacement surgical procedure are disclosed. A musculoskeletal model for a patients joint and patient biometric data are received. A joint distraction device is positioned in the patients joint during the joint replacement surgical procedure, and the position and orientation of the joint distraction device are tracked as the patient's joint is moved through a range of motion in order to determine a magnitude of a force applied to the joint distraction device. A surgical plan for performing the joint replacement surgical procedure is provided based on the magnitude of the force applied throughout the range of motion, the musculoskeletal model, and the patient biometric data. The surgical plan includes implant position information, bone resection information, and/or ligament balancing information.

    摘要: Methods, systems, and devices for the treatment of osteochondral defects (OCDs) are disclosed. The disclosed method and systems include collecting surface data of a joint using image-free methods, generating a three-dimensional (3D) healthy bone model based on the surface data of the joint and a database of healthy bone anatomies, defining of the boundary of the OCD on the joint, generating a 3D implant model based on the 3D healthy bone model and the boundary of the OCD on the joint, manufacturing an implant based on the 3D implant model, generating an implantation plan, resecting the joint according to the implantation plan, and placing the implant into the resected cavity on the joint. The disclosed devices include two or more distinct segments with distinct structures optimized for bone or cartilage growth and configured to receive distinct injectable biologic enhancement for targeted bone or cartilage growth.
