A compression device includes: an adhesive sheet having an adhesion surface; and a compression member configured to compress a biological surface. The compression member includes: a pressing body configured to press the biological surface by extending in a thickness direction of the adhesive sheet; and a holding body fixed to the adhesive sheet and configured to hold the pressing body. In a plan view seen in the thickness direction, a receiving portion, which is a region in which the adhesive sheet is not disposed or a region defined by a concave portion in an outer edge of the adhesive sheet and which is configured to receive a medical insertion member, is provided outside an outer edge of the holding body. The holding body includes, at a position adjacent the receiving portion, an identification portion configured to be visually identified in the plan view seen in the thickness direction.

A medical puncture needle includes: a metal needle body formed in a tubular shape, the needle body including: a blade surface located at a distal end portion of the needle body, a planar reflection portion located at an inner surface of the needle body and configured to reflect light, and a transmission window located proximal of the blade surface and configured to transmit reflected light reflected by the planar reflection portion.

A compression device includes: an adhesive sheet having an adhesion surface; and a compression member. The compression member includes: a pressing body configured to press a biological surface; and a holding body fixed to the adhesive sheet and configured to hold the pressing body to be extendable. The pressing body includes: an inflatable portion that is inflatable; and an extending portion extending from the inflatable portion and wound around the holding body to extend from the inflatable portion to an upper surface side of the holding body with the holding body interposed therebetween. The extending portion includes a light-transmitting portion having translucency in the thickness direction at a position covering an upper surface of the holding body. The holding body includes, at a position overlapping with the light-transmitting portion of the extending portion in a plan view, a marker portion configured to be visually identified.

A method for visualizing and targeting anatomical structures inside a patient utilizing a handheld screen device may include grasping the handheld screen device and manipulating a position of the handheld screen device relative to the patient. The handheld screen device may include a camera and a display. The method may also include orienting the camera on the handheld screen device relative to an anatomical feature of the patient by manipulating the position of the handheld screen device relative to the patient, capturing first image data of light reflecting from a surface of the anatomical feature with the camera on the handheld screen device, and comparing the first image data with a pre-operative 3-D image of the patient to determine a location of an anatomical structure located inside the patient and positioned relative to the anatomical feature of the patient.

Mediated-reality imaging systems, methods, and devices are disclosed herein. In some embodiments, an imaging system includes a camera array configured to (i) capture intraoperative image data of a surgical scene in substantially real-time and (ii) track a tool through the scene. The imaging system is further configured to receive and/or store preoperative image data, such as medical scan data corresponding to a portion of a patient in the scene. The imaging device can register the preoperative image data to the intraoperative image data, and display the preoperative image data and a representation of the tool on a user interface, such as a head-mounted display.

A skin measuring microscope includes a housing, an electronic imager disposed along an imaging axis, and an illumination system. The illumination system includes a plurality of LEDs disposed in a ring-like configuration adjacent a distal end of the housing.

Robotic surgical systems and methods of operating robotic surgical systems are included. The methods include directing light at an optical element configured to be detected by an image capture device of the robotic surgical system, the optical element configured to reflect light having a wavelength within a predetermined range, detecting, using an image capture device capturing images of the optical element, an absence or a presence of the reflected light from the optical element, and providing a notification, in response to the detection by the image capture device of the absence of the reflected light from the optical element.

A surgical instrument assembly configured to display a representation of the surgical instrument relative to a trajectory (e.g., a desired trajectory for drilling into an implant) based image data from an image sensor (e.g., a camera). For example, the surgical instrument assembly may be configured to determine a desired trajectory (e.g., a central axis of a distal hole of an intramedullary nail) based on X-ray image data representing at least one fiducial marker (e.g., an array of ArUco markers) and representing an anatomical structure and/or an implant. The surgical instrument assembly may in real time display a representation of the orientation and/or position of the surgical instrument (e.g., the orientation and position of a drill bit of the surgical instrument) in relation to the desired trajectory based on image sensor data that is generated based on an orientation of the at least one fiducial marker detected by an image sensor.

Modular orthopedic implants, associated instruments, and navigation methods. The modular orthopedic fixation assembly may include a modular bone fastener and a modular tulip head configured to be installed separately. The modular bone fastener may be installed and tracked with a screw extender instrument having an outer sleeve and an inner shaft coupled to the bone fastener. The screw extender instrument may continue to track the location and orientation of the bone throughout the surgical procedure for navigational integrity. The modular tulip head may be assembled to the bone fastener with a head inserter instrument, which ensures the modular head is properly seated on the installed bone fastener.

Surgical robot systems, anatomical structure tracker apparatuses, and US transducer apparatuses are disclosed. A surgical robot system includes a robot, a US transducer, and at least one processor. The robot includes a robot base, a robot arm coupled to the robot base, and an end-effector coupled to the robot arm. The end-effector is configured to guide movement of a surgical instrument. The US transducer is coupled to the end-effector and operative to output US imaging data of anatomical structure proximately located to the end-effector. The least one processor is operative to obtain an image volume for the patient and to track pose of the end-effector relative to anatomical structure captured in the image volume based on the US imaging data.
