An image-guided robotic intervention system (“IGRIS”) may be used to perform medical procedures on patients. IGRIS provides a real-time view of patient anatomy, as well as an intended target or targets for the procedures, software that allows a user to plan an approach or trajectory path using either the image or the robotic device, software that allows a user to convert a series of 2D images into a 3D volume, and localizes the 3D volume with respect to real-time images during the procedure. IGRIS may include sensors to estimate pose of the imaging device relative to the patient to improve the performance of that software with respect to runtime, robustness, and accuracy.

Systems and methods for joint replacement are provided. The systems and methods include a surgical orientation device and at least one orthopedic fixture. The surgical orientation device and orthopedic fixtures can be used to locate the orientation of an axis in the body, to adjust an orientation of a cutting plane or planes along a bony surface, to distract a joint, or to otherwise assist in an orthopedic procedure or procedures.

Certain embodiments may relate to apparatuses and methods for performing surgical procedures. For example, a method may comprise initiating detection and tracking of at least one surgical instrument (including associated surgical material) within a surgical area. The method may further comprise performing a surgical procedure with the at least one surgical instrument and material and ending detection and tracking of the at least one surgical instrument and material within the surgical area. The method may further comprise displaying at least one indication of location status of the at least one surgical instrument.

A surgical system is provided. The surgical system includes a camera operable to capture images and/or video. A projector is operable to project light, and a controller is communicatively coupled with the camera and the projector. The controller is operable to track movement of bone in real-time during surgery based on the images and/or video captured by the camera, and control the projector to project the light including a cutting line on the bone to indicate a cutting plane for cutting the bone during surgery.

A surgical system is configured to augment the visualization environment presented to the surgeon by merging, in real-time, video feed and ultrasound imaging; tracking anatomy and instruments; identifying critical structures; generating and displaying 3-dimensional models of relevant anatomy; providing actionable guidance to the user; and enabling data collection and processing. The surgical system may include a tissue-marking surgical instrument configured to simultaneously identify critical structures beneath an organ surface and mark the organ surface at a location overlapping the identified critical structures.

An optical tracking system is provided. The optical tracking system comprises an autoclavable fiducial marker assembly including an opaque housing, a light source, a window panel configured to refract light rays from the light source therethrough, and a metallized coating forming a hermetic seal at an interface of the window panel and the opaque housing. The fiducial marker assembly is configured to shield a peripheral edge of the window panel from the light rays. The system further comprises a tracking device comprising at least two optical sensors configured to detect a position of a light ray emitted by the light source. The system further comprises a processor configured to receive the position of the light rays from the optical sensors, shift the position of each light ray based on a calculated refraction deviation, and triangulate the location of the light source based on the shifted position of each light ray.

A surgical skill training system includes: a data collecting unit configured to collect actual surgical skill data on a patient of an operating surgeon; an image providing server configured to generate a 3-dimensional (3D) surgical image for surgical skill training, based on the actual surgical skill data; and a user device configured to display the 3D surgical image, wherein the image providing server includes: a patient image generating unit configured to generate a patient image, based on patient information of the patient; a surgical stage classifying unit configured to classify the actual surgical skill data into actual surgical skill data for each surgical stage performed by the operating surgeon; and a 3D image generating unit configured to generate the 3D surgical image by using the patient image, and feature information detected from the actual surgical skill data.

A system (100) and device (300) for mounting and tracking a tracker array during a surgical procedure are described. For example, the system includes a surgical navigation system (700) including a position tracking system (702) configured to track one or more tracker arrays, and a device (300) for mounting a tracker array (306) onto a patient during the surgical procedure. The device includes an intramedullary (IM) canal component (304) configured to be inserted into an IM canal (310) within a bone (312). The device further includes a tracker pin (308) configured to penetrate at least a portion of the bone and engage an inserted end (411, 413) of the IM canal component, and a tracker array (306) affixed to the tracker pin. The IM canal component is configured to engage the IM canal of the bone to stabilize the tracker array during the surgical procedure.

Hip joint navigation systems and methods are provided. In some embodiments, the systems and methods described herein determine a table reference plane that approximates the Anterior Pelvic Plane. In some embodiments, the systems and methods described herein measure a pre-operative and post-operative point. In some embodiments, the comparison of the pre-operative and post-operative point corresponds to changes in leg length and joint offset. In some embodiments, the systems and methods described herein determine an Adjusted Plane. In some embodiments, the Adjusted Plane adjusts for tilt by rotating the Anterior Pelvic Plane about the inter-ASIS line. In some embodiments, the Adjusted Plane improves correlation between navigated cup angles and post-operative images.

A fetal intrauterine positioning fixation device is configured for entering an amniotic cavity through a vaginal cervical fetal membrane access and/or abdominal wall uterine fetal membrane access to adjust and fix a fetal position in a maternal uterus. The fetal intrauterine positioning fixation device includes a manipulator, a mechanical arm and a surgical robot, the manipulator and mechanical arm can enter an amniotic cavity through a vaginal cervical fetal membrane channel or abdominal wall uterine fetal membrane channel, so that a doctor can control the manipulator and mechanical arm through the surgical robot or a handle to identify a fetus, adjust a fetal position and fix the fetus according to a preoperative planning, and monitor a fetal status in real time, expose a surgical treatment area, and create an operation space for implementing intrauterine fetal surgery.
