AREA OF INTEREST OVERLAY ON DENTAL SITE USING AUGMENTED REALITY

A system comprises an image capture device, an augmented reality (AR) display to display, and a processing device. The processing deice receives image data of a dental arch from the image capture device and processes the image data using a plurality of detection rules, where each detection rule detects one or more dental conditions. The processing device determines a dental condition for the dental arch based on the processing, determines a position of an area of interest on the dental arch, wherein the area of interest is associated with the dental condition, generates a visual overlay comprising an indication of the dental condition at the position of the area of interest, and outputs the visual overlay to the AR display, wherein the visual overlay is superimposed over a view of the dental arch on the AR display at the position of the area of interest.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MEDICAL PROCEDURE PREPARATION

Systems and methods for medical procedure preparation are provided. Systems and methods are provided for identifying appropriate medical resources to prepare, prior to a medical procedure. Systems and methods are provided for automatically updating records of medical personnel preferences based on usage. Optionally, scheduling and forecasting of location availability may occur in real-time. Furthermore, medical console identifiers may be used to aid in the systems and methods provided herein.

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR COMPUTER AIDED SURGERY

A number of improvements are provided relating to computer aided surgery. The improvement relates to both the methods used during computer aided surgery and the devices used during such procedures. Some of the improvement relate to controlling the selection of which data to display during a procedure and/or how the data is displayed to aid the surgeon. Other improvements relate to the structure of the tools used during a procedure and how the tools can be controlled automatically to improve the efficiency of the procedure. Still other improvements relate to methods of providing feedback during a procedure to improve either the efficiency or quality, or both, for a procedure.

ADJUSTMENT OF A SURGICAL DEVICE FUNCTION BASED ON SITUATIONAL AWARENESS

Surgical devices and surgical systems are disclosed. The surgical device can comprise an actuator and a control circuit configured to adjust one or more functions of the surgical device based on a signal from a situationally-aware surgical hub. A surgical system can comprise a screen and a control circuit configured to communicate a priority level of a recommendation to the clinician on the display.

Ablation planning with lesion coverage feedback

A tumor targeting ablation planning device and method include providing a predetermined ablation profile and a segmented tumor to be treated in an ablation procedure. A contour of the segmented tumor is generated and the predetermined ablation profile is overlapped with a part of the segmented tumor to form an overlapping region, which is identified. Further, a predetermined safety factor is applied to at least a part of the at least one segmented tumor in the overlapping region to generate a modified overlapping region. Parts of the overlapping region that are arranged outside the modified overlapping region are determined as overlapping portions. A display is configured to: display the contour of the segmented tumor, display the predetermined ablation profile overlapped with the at least part of the segmented tumor in the overlapping region, and display the overlapping portions in relation with the contour and the ablation profile as virtual planning ablation result.

COMPUTER-ASSISTED ARTHROPLASTY SYSTEM
20230181257 · 2023-06-15 ·

A computer-implemented method for creating an activity-optimized cutting guides for surgical procedures includes receiving one or more pre-operative images depicting one or more anatomical joints of a patient, and creating a three-dimensional anatomical model of the one or more anatomical joints based on the one or more pre-operative images. One or more patient-specific anatomical measurements are determined based on the three-dimensional anatomical model. A statistical model of joint performance is applied to the patient-specific anatomical measurements to identify one or more cut angles for performing a surgical procedure. A patient-specific cutting guide is created that comprises one or more apertures positioned based on the one or more cut angles.

SYSTEM AND METHOD OF UTILIZING COMPUTER-AIDED IDENTIFICATION WITH MEDICAL PROCEDURES
20230181265 · 2023-06-15 ·

The disclosure provides a system that may receive an identification of a first patient; may receive a first template that includes first multiple locations associated with a face of the first patient and associated with the identification of the first patient; may determine second multiple locations associated with a face of a current patient; may determine a second template of the face of the current patient based at least on the second multiple locations associated with the face of the current patient; may determine if the first template matches the second template; if the first template matches the second template, may provide an indication that the current patient has been correctly identified as the first patient; and if the first template does not match the second template, may provide an indication that the current patient has not been identified.

Communication control for a surgeon controlled secondary display and primary display

A tiered multi-display control scheme may provide various communication control options for a surgeon-controlled secondary display and primary operating room display. A powered surgical tool may be in operative communication with a local display and at least one main monitor within the operating room outside the sterile field for displaying multiple data and/or imaging sources. The local display may be interactable by the surgeon within the sterile field. The display outside the sterile field may show an image of an aspect of the laparoscopic scope and may contain superimposed other data streams from other devices besides the scope. The secondary display could be used to direct from its displayed content up onto the primary display or remove it from the display. The added or removed data streams may be originated from the secondary display, passed through the secondary display, or be networked with the secondary display.

AUTOMATIC SURGICAL SYSTEM SETUP AND CONFIGURATION
20230181266 · 2023-06-15 ·

Systems are provided for automatically configuring devices and systems in an operating environment, e.g., an ophthalmic operating environment, to a user's desired settings. The system includes a controller configured to identify a user, e.g., a surgeon, via the utilization of a user-identifying identifier, e.g., a radio-frequency identification (RFID) device, which may communicate with a receiver operably coupled to the controller. The controller may further be configured to identify a surgical device, e.g., an ophthalmic probe, being used by the user during a surgical procedure via a device-associated identifier, e.g., a device-specific RFID device. Upon identification of the user and the surgical device, the controller may map the user and surgical device to one or more sets of predefined and user-input parameters/settings, and further configure the surgical device based on the mapped one or more sets of previously-determined parameters/settings.

Light displays in a medical device

An example medical device may include a first component including an interface, a light feature surrounding at least part of the interface, and a controller coupled to the light feature and including a memory in which are stored instructions for the controller causing a first illumination state of the light a feature corresponding to a first state of the interface, and the controller causing a second illumination state of the Sight feature corresponding to a second state of the interface.
