A medical system may comprise a display system and a processor. The processor may be configured to generate a computer model of a plurality of instruments. The plurality of instruments may extend through and out of a distal end of an entry guide and may include an image capturing instrument. The processor may be further configured to cause an image of the computer model to be displayed on the display system and determine from a configuration of the plurality of instruments in the computer model if an event alert threshold associated with an event has been reached. If a determination is made that the event alert threshold has been reached, an event indicator may be displayed on the display system at a portion of the image of the computer model associated with the event.

Methods and systems of augmenting an implant intraoperatively and preparing a cone for revision surgical procedure are disclosed. A system includes a cutting device, a tracking and navigation system and a cutting system in operable communication with the cutting device and the tracking and navigation system. The cutting device includes a communication system, a cutting element, and a plurality of optical trackers. The tracking and navigation system is configured to detect a location of optical trackers. The control system is configured to cause the tracking and navigation system to detect the location of the cutting device, determine a revised shape for an implant cavity, cause the cutting device to cut the implant cavity to the revised shape, select a shape for a cone to be placed in the revised implant cavity, and machine the cone to the selected shape.

A robotic surgical system may be used to perform a surgical procedure. Providing guidance for the robotic surgical system includes integrating a Point of View (PoV) surgical drill with a camera to capture a PoV image of a surgical area of a subject patient; displaying an image of the surgical area, based on a viewing angle of the PoV surgical drill, thus enabling the surgeon to operate on the surgical area using the PoV surgical drill. The PoV surgical drill operates based on the surgeon's control of a guidance drill. The content of the images may change based on a change in the viewing angle of the PoV surgical drill.

A surgical instrument system (1) for treatment of an anatomical structure (3, 5) comprises an instrument (8) and/or a patient specific instrument (2, 4) for performing the treatment on the anatomical structure. The instrument (8) and/or the patient specific instrument (2, 4) comprises an integrated measurement system (20, 40, 80) for tracking the instrument (8) and/or the patient specific instrument (2, 4) relative to the anatomical structure (3, 5), whereby the integrated measurement system comprises a tracking system (6, 10), which comprises a shadow imaging tracking system.

Robotic systems and methods include a robotic manipulator and a skin incision tool to be coupled to the robotic manipulator and being configured to create an incision in skin of a patient. A skin tracker is attached to the skin of the patient to track the skin of the patient. A robotic controller controls the robotic manipulator to move the skin incision tool relative to a determined location on the skin of the patient. The robotic controller controls the robotic manipulator to constrain movement of the skin incision tool with a haptic object defined relative to the determined location to guide the skin incision tool to the determined location for making the incision in the skin.

A method is provided for determining the shape of a surgical linking device that is to be attached to a bony body structure such as the spinal column based on digitized locations of a plurality of attachment elements engaged to the bony structure. The method is implemented by a computer system through a GUI to generate an initial bend curve to mate with the plurality of attachment elements. The initial bend curve may be simplified based on user input to the GUI to reduce the number of bends necessary to produce a well-fitting linking device and may be altered to help obtain the goals of surgery.

The present invention provides a method for generating a bone fixation implant and related preoperative planning. The method comprises a first step of determining at least the orientation and the position of the fixation means, based on a 3D model of the bone fragments. The method may include a second step of defining the shape of one or more bone plates, based on the output of the first step. The method may further include a third step determining tools for applying fixation means during surgery, according the optimized configuration defined in the first step and applying the bone plates from the second step. The method may even further include a fourth step, quantifying construct stability for a given patient following surgery, thereby allowing early weightbearing.

The invention generally relates to systems and methods for therapeutically modulating nerves in or associated with a nasal region of a patient for the treatment of a rhinosinusitis condition.

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.

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.
