A magnetically-tracked catheter system having a catheter and a magnetic beacon. The catheter has a proximal end and a distal end. The catheter includes a first magnetic sensor disposed at (i.e., near) the distal end. The magnetic beacon is configured to be disposed external to an individual and in a target zone. An operator interface is in electronic communication with the first magnetic sensor. The catheter may further include a guide lumen (and/or other lumen or lumens) extending between the proximal end and the distal end and the configured for use with a guidewire. The catheter may include an occlusion member configured to occlude a vessel or other passage of an individual (e.g, respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, etc.).

Methods, non-transitory computer readable media, serial monitor devices, fiducial tracking knee braces devices, and systems that facilitate generation of improved three-dimensional models from two-dimensional multi-planar images are disclosed. With this technology, correspondence of a patient's knee angle is substantially maintained across x-ray images to improve fiducial-marker-to-bone relationships within the images and facilitate improved scaling and registration of the images to generate a three-dimensional model of the knee. In particular, orientation sensor(s) attached to an improved knee brace device allows a user to substantially match the position of the knee across anterior/posterior and lateral x-ray images so that the images can be scaled and oriented more effectively, resulting in more accurate three-dimensional models and improved preoperative planning for patients.

A facilitation system for facilitating remote presentation of a physical world includes a first object and an operating environment of the first object. The facilitation system includes a processing system configured to obtain an image frame depicting the physical world, identify a depiction of the first object in the image frame, and obtain a first spatial registration registering an object model with the first object in the physical world. The object model is of the first object. The processing system is further configured to obtain an updated object model corresponding to the object model updated with a current state of the first object, and generate a hybrid frame using the image frame, the first spatial registration, and the updated object model. The hybrid frame includes the image frame with the depiction of the first object replaced by a depiction of the updated object model.

A surgical system includes an XR headset and an XR headset controller. The XR headset is configured to be worn by a user during a surgical procedure and includes a see-through display screen configured to display an XR image for viewing by the user. The XR headset controller is configured to receive a plurality of two-dimensional (“2D”) image data associated with an anatomical structure of a patient. The XR headset controller is further configured to generate a first 2D image from the plurality of 2D image data based on a pose of the XR headset. The XR headset controller is further configured to generate a second 2D image from the plurality of 2D image data based on the pose of the XR headset. The XR headset controller is further configured to generate the XR image by displaying the first 2D image in a field of view of a first eye of the user and displaying the second 2D image in a field of view of a second eye of the user.

A surgical positioning cart configured to support a surgical robotic device thereon a distal side configured to face a surgical entry site of a patient, comprises a base movable at least along a horizontal reference plane, a head pivotable relative to the horizontal plane to define therewith different inclination angles at least in a plane comprising vertical and longitudinal axes of the cart; a slider configured to fixedly receive at least a portion of the surgical robotic device thereon and mounted to the head so as to be pivotable therewith and be movable relative thereto at least along the longitudinal axis; and a neck connecting between the base and the head pivotally mounted thereto, having an adjustable height defined by a length of the neck in the vertical direction.

The present invention relates to a device for navigating a medical instrument relative to a patient anatomy, a method for navigating a medical instrument relative to a patient anatomy, and a program element which, when executed by a computer, executes this method. The device comprises a position determination unit, a computing unit and a navigation display. The position determination unit comprises a sensor module configured to acquire current 3D data of the patient anatomy. The position determination unit further comprises a position sensor which is configured to acquire current movement data of the medical instrument. The computing unit is configured to match the current 3D data of the patient anatomy and the current movement data of the medical instrument with preoperative image data of the patient anatomy and, on this basis, to calculate navigation information for the medical instrument. The navigation display is configured to show the calculated navigation information.

A method and system are provided to assist in positioning the field-of-view (FOV) of an optical tracking system during a computer-assisted surgical procedure. The method includes displaying a view from a visible light detector on a display, and generating an outline as an overlay on the display of a FOV of two or more optical tracking detectors on the displayed view from the visible light detector. A user then positions at least one of: a) the two or more optical tracking detectors, or b) a tracked object based on the displayed view from the visible light detector and the generated outline.

An ultrasound-based scanning apparatus and system using a dual-array probe and slot for guidance and insertion of a needle to assist with needle injection procedures.

The present disclosure discloses a panoramic stitching method, an apparatus, and a storage medium. A transformation matrix obtaining method includes: obtaining motion data detected by sensors, wherein the sensors are disposed on a probe used to collect images, and the motion data is used to represent a moving trend of the probe during image collection; inputting the motion data into a pre-trained neural network, to calculate matrix parameters by using the neural network; calculating a transformation matrix by using the matrix parameters, wherein the transformation matrix is used to stitch images collected by the probe, to obtain a panoramic image. In the present disclosure, the transformation matrix can be calculated and the images can be stitched without using characteristics of the images, and factors such as brightness and the characteristics of the images do not impose an impact, thereby improving transformation matrix calculation accuracy, and improving an image stitching effect.
