METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROVIDING A CORRECTED DATASET
20220354588 · 2022-11-10 ·

A method for providing a corrected dataset includes receiving a preoperative dataset having an image and/or a model of an examination region in an examination subject. Intraoperatively, a first part of a medical object is arranged in the examination region and a second part of the medical object is arranged outside the examination subject. Positioning information relating to a spatial positioning of the second part of the medical object is received. An entry angle of the medical object into the examination subject is determined using the positioning information. An intraoperative dataset having an image of the examination region is received. A conversion instruction is determined based on the entry angle of the medical object to minimize a deviation between the preoperative and the intraoperative dataset, and the corrected dataset is generated by applying the conversion instruction to the preoperative dataset. The corrected dataset is provided.

Inertial Sensor Based Surgical Navigation System
20230041207 · 2023-02-09 ·

An inertial sensor based surgical navigation system for knee replacement surgery is disclosed. Inertial sensors composed of six-degree-of-freedom inertial chips, whose measurements are processed through a series of integration, quaternion, and kalman filter algorithms, are used to track the position and orientation of bones and surgical instruments. The system registers anatomically significant geometry, calculates joint centers and the mechanical axis of the knee, develops a visualization of the lower extremity that moves in real time, assists in the intra-operative planning of surgical cuts, determines the optimal cutting planes for cut guides and the optimal prosthesis position and orientation, and finally navigates the cut guides and the prosthesis to their optimal positions and orientations using a graphical user interface.

DEVICE AND METHOD FOR ASSISTING LAPAROSCOPIC SURGERY UTILIZING A TOUCH SCREEN

A surgical controlling system, comprising: at least one surgical tool configured to be inserted into a surgical environment of a human body; at least one location estimating means configured for real-time localization of the 3D spatial position of said at least one surgical tool at any given time t; at least one movement detection means communicable with a movement's database and with said location estimating means; a controller having a processing means communicable with a controller's database; said controller's database is in communication with said movement detection means; and at least one display configured to real time provide an image of at least a portion of said surgical environment; wherein said controller is configured to direct said surgical tool to said location via said instructions provided by said controller; further wherein said location is real time updated on said display as said at least one surgical tool is moved.

ENDOSCOPE NAVIGATION SYSTEM WITH UPDATING ANATOMY MODEL

An endoscope navigation system is provided that updates an anatomy model based on a live camera signal. As the endoscope advances within the patient, a camera signal, and corresponding position signal, of the endoscope, is provided and used to update the anatomy model based on identified divergences between the camera signal at a particular position and anatomy model.

20230038678 · 2023-02-09 ·

Devices and methods for performing a surgical step or surgical procedure with visual guidance using an optical head mounted display are disclosed.

METHOD FOR ENERGY DISTRIBUTION IN A SURGICAL MODULAR ENERGY SYSTEM

A method of operating a modular surgical system including a control module, a first surgical module, and a second surgical module is disclosed. The method includes detachably connecting the first surgical module to the control module by stacking the first surgical module with the control module in a stack configuration, detachably connecting the second surgical module to the first surgical module by stacking the second surgical module with the control module and the first surgical module in the stack configuration, powering up the modular surgical system, and monitoring distribution of power from a power supply of the control module to the first surgical module and the second surgical module.

System and method for intraoperative surgical planning
11490965 · 2022-11-08 · ·

The subject matter includes systems, methods, and prosthetic devices for joint reconstruction surgery. A computer-assisted intraoperating planning method can include accessing a first medical image providing a first view of a joint within a surgical site as well as receiving selection of a first component of a modular prosthetic device implanted in the first bone of the joint. The method continues by displaying a graphical representation of the first component of the modular prosthetic device overlaid on the first medical image, and updating a graphical representation of the first component based on receiving positioning inputs representative of an implant location of the first component relative to landmarks on the first bone visible within the first medical image. The method concludes by presenting a selection interface enabling visualization of additional components of the modular prosthetic device virtually connected to the first component and overlaid on the first medical image.

Robotic systems for navigation of luminal networks that compensate for physiological noise

Certain aspects relate to systems and techniques for luminal network navigation. Some aspects relate to incorporating respiratory frequency and/or magnitude into a navigation system to implement patient safety measures. Some aspects relate to identifying, and compensating for, motion caused by patient respiration in order to provide a more accurate identification of the position of an instrument within a luminal network.

Optical camera positioning tool

A system and method may be used to position or orient a camera within a surgical field. A method may include generating a graphical user interface including a first set of instructions to reposition the camera, and determining whether the camera is within a target volume location. The method may include automatically outputting an indication when the camera is within the target volume location. The method may include outputting a second set of instructions for display on the graphical user interface to align a laser, coupled to or integrated into the camera, to the tracker by changing an angle of the camera.
