ROBOTIC REVISION KNEE ARTHROPLASTY VIRTUAL RECONSTRUCTION SYSTEM
Systems that may be used for performing a robotic revision knee arthroplasty are disclosed. Such systems can optionally include a processor that can: intraoperatively receive a plurality of position data obtained by a robotic surgical device after a primary implant has been removed from a bone, the plurality of position data correspond to a plurality of landmarks of the bone of a patient, the plurality of landmarks include a position of an intramedullary canal of the bone; select from a database having a plurality of mean models of a corresponding bone a mean model that comprises a best match based upon the plurality of landmarks of the bone; generate an updated model by altering the mean model to fit an anatomy of the bone of the patient based upon the plurality of landmarks; and output to a user interface the updated model for use during the robotic revision knee arthroplasty.
Device for providing joint replacement robotic surgery information and method for providing same
A device for providing joint replacement robotic surgery information comprises: a memory unit configured to store surgery plan information set before surgery including a cutting path of a surgical target bone; a target acquisition unit configured to acquire positions of a plurality of cutting target points forming the cutting path based on the surgery plan information; a robot position calculation unit configured to calculate a current cutting position of the surgical robot among the cutting target points based on surgery progress of the surgical robot; a graphic user interface (GUI) providing unit configured to generate graphics that represent surgery progress information including a current cutting position of the surgical robot and positions of the cutting target points on a virtual bone model corresponding to the surgical target bone; and a display unit configured to display the virtual bone model and the surgery progress information.
System and method for enhanced data analysis with specialized video enabled software tools for medical environments
Medical software tools platforms utilize a surgical display to provide access to specific medical software tools, such as medically-oriented applications or widgets, that can assist surgeons or surgical team in performing various procedures. In particular, an endoscopic camera may register the momentary rise in the optical signature reflected from a tissue surface and in turn transmit it to a medical image processing system which can also receive patient heart rate data and display relevant anomalies. Changes in various spectral components and the speed at which they change in relation to a source of stimulus (heartbeat, breathing, light source modulation, etc.) may indicate the arrival of blood, contrast agents or oxygen absorption. Combinations of these may indicate various states of differing disease or margins of tumors, and so forth. Also, changes in temperatures, physical dimensions, pressures, photoacoustic pressures and the rate of change may indicate tissue anomalies in comparison to historic values.
System and method for navigating a guide wire
A method for navigating a guide wire during a catheter procedure, the method includes changing the direction of a distal portion of the guide wire to advance past a junction in a desired path by rotating a proximal end of the guide wire a predetermined amount while the guide wire is being retracted to a point before the junction and then advancing the distal end of the guide wire past the junction through the desired path.
ANATOMICAL MODEL CONTROLLING
Devices, systems, and methods of the present disclosure are directed to facilitating control of a graphical user interface associated with performing a medical procedure. Inputs can be received from a plurality of input devices interacting with respective sets of input options displayed on respective portions of the graphical user interface. One of the input devices can be operable by a physician, during a medical procedure, to navigate a set of input options to modify a graphical representation of at least one of a medical device and an anatomic structure displayed on the graphical user interface.
Methods and Systems for Treating Femoroacetabular Impingement
Treating femoroacetrabular impingement. At least one example is a method comprising: monitoring, by a procedure controller, location of a first member of an acetabulofemoral joint in a three-dimensional coordinate space; tracking, by the procedure controller, an amount of bone resected from the first member of the acetabulofemoral joint by tracking a distal end of a resection device in the three-dimensional coordinate space; and controlling, by the procedure controller, a rate of resection of the resection device based on the location of the distal end of the resection device relative to a planned resection volume associated the first member of the acetabulofemoral joint.
EASY TO MANUFACTURE AUTOCLAVABLE LED FOR OPTICAL TRACKING
An optical tracking system is provided. The optical tracking system comprises an autoclavable fiducial marker assembly including an opaque housing, a light source, a window panel configured to refract light rays from the light source therethrough, and a metallized coating forming a hermetic seal at an interface of the window panel and the opaque housing. The fiducial marker assembly is configured to shield a peripheral edge of the window panel from the light rays. The system further comprises a tracking device comprising at least two optical sensors configured to detect a position of a light ray emitted by the light source. The system further comprises a processor configured to receive the position of the light rays from the optical sensors, shift the position of each light ray based on a calculated refraction deviation, and triangulate the location of the light source based on the shifted position of each light ray.
Augmented reality interventional system providing contextual overlays
An augmented reality interventional system which provides contextual overlays (116) to assist or guide a user (101) or enhance the performance of the interventional procedure by the user that uses an interactive medical device (102) to perform the interventional procedure. The system includes a graphic processing module (110) that is configured to generate at least one contextual overlay on an augmented reality display device system (106). The contextual overlays may identify a component (104) or control of the interactive medical device. The contextual overlays may also identify steps of a procedure to be performed by the user and provide instructions for performance of the procedure. The contextual overlays may also identify a specific region of the environment to assist or guide the user or enhance the performance of the interventional procedure by identifying paths or protocols to reduce radiation exposure.
SYSTEM FOR MAINTAINING AND CONTROLLING SURGICAL TOOLS
Methods, apparatuses, and systems for maintaining and controlling surgical tools are disclosed. For each surgical tool, a surgeon can give verbal commands which can result in feedback provided by a synthesized voice or the execution of an action as instructed by the verbal command. The tools are monitored during use to ensure the tools remain within their operating parameters. The system alerts the surgeon should the tools approach their operational limitations.
Extended reality AR/VR system
A system includes a mobile device having one or more cameras to take images; a sensor detecting reflected light from one or more lasers and a diffuser to detect object range or dimension; code for motion tracking, environmental understanding by detecting planes in an environment, and estimating light and dimensions of the surrounding based on the one or more lasers; code to estimate a three-dimensional (3D) volume of an object from multiple perspectives and from projected laser beams to measure size or scale and determine locations of points on the object's surface in a plane or a slice using time-of-flight, wherein positions and cross-sections for different slices are correlated to construct a 3D model of the object, including object position and shape; the device receiving user request to select a content from one or more augmented, virtual, or extended reality contents and rendering a reality view of the environment.
