State assessment system, diagnosis and treatment system, and method for operating the diagnosis and treatment system
A state assessment system, a diagnosis and treatment system and a method for operating the diagnosis and treatment system are disclosed. An oscillator model converts a physiological signal of a subject into a defined feature image. A classification model analyzes state information of the subject based on the feature image. An analysis model outputs a treatment suggestion for the subject based on the state information of the subject. An AR projection device projects acupoint positions of a human body onto the subject, for the subject to be treated based on the treatment suggestion.
Clinical diagnosis and treatment planning system and methods of use
A spinal disorder diagnosis and treatment planning system is provided. The diagnosis and treatment planning system includes a mixed reality holographic display including at least one processor, at least one camera, at least one sensor, and being configured to acquire data points corresponding to a surface of a body adjacent to vertebral tissue. A computer database is configured to transmit imaging of the body including the vertebral tissue to the mixed reality holographic display. The mixed reality holographic display is configured to display a first holographic image of the vertebral tissue superimposed with a body image including the surface. Methods are also disclosed.
SURGICAL GUIDANCE FOR SURGICAL TOOLS
An example physical tracking tool includes a main body defining a channel configured to receive a tool, the channel having a longitudinal axis; and one or more physical tracking features attached to the main body, each physical tracking feature comprising a plurality of planar faces, each planar face of the plurality of planar faces including different a graphical pattern of a plurality of graphical patterns.
METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING A POSE OF AT LEAST ONE OBJECT IN AN OPERATING THEATRE
The invention relates to a method and a system for determining a pose of at least one object in an operating theatre, in a reference coordinate system of a pose detection device of a surgical microscope, involving the determination of the pose of the object by way of a movably arranged microscope-external pose detection device in a first coordinate system, the first coordinate system being a coordinate system that is arranged to be stationary relative to the operating theatre, the determination of the pose of the reference coordinate system by the non-stationary microscope-external pose detection device in the first coordinate system, and the transformation of the pose of the object from the first coordinate system into the reference coordinate system of the pose detection device of the surgical microscope.
INTEGRATED HUB SYSTEMS CONTROL INTERFACES AND CONNECTIONS
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed for switching a control scheme to control a set of system modules and/or modular devices of a surgical hub. A surgical hub may determine a first control scheme that is configured to control a set of system modules and/or modular devices. The surgical hub may receive an input from one of the set of modules or a device located in an OR. The surgical hub may make a determination that at least one of a safety status level or an overload status level of the surgical hub is higher than its threshold value. Based on at least the received input and the determination, the surgical hub may determine a second control scheme to be used to control the set of system modules. The surgical hub may send a control program indicating the second control scheme to one or more system modules and/or modular devices.
GUIDING A ROBOTIC SURGICAL SYSTEM TO PERFORM A SURGICAL PROCEDURE
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.
Surgical instrument mounted display system
A surgical instrument assembly may include a processor, a surgical instrument configured to operate on an anatomical structure, and a display coupled to the processor and attached to the surgical instrument. The processor can be configured to determine a position of the medical imaging device, from which the medical imaging device can generate an X-ray image that includes holes of an intramedullary nail shown as circles, for instance perfect circles. In an example, the processor identifies the intramedullary nail, so as to determine an intramedullary nail identity, and determines the position of the medical imaging device based on a portion of at least two locking holes of the intramedullary nail and based on the intramedullary nail identity.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING AUTOFOCUS OPERATIONS
A method for performing auto-focus in a camera is disclosed. The method includes: receiving, from a tracking system for tracking a position of a medical instrument, a signal; determining, based on the received signal, that the medical instrument is removed from a field of view of the camera; in response to determining that a continuous auto-focus mode for the camera is enabled: retrieving, from a database, a first focus distance value representing a focus distance that was most recently set with intent for the camera; and automatically updating a focus distance of the camera to the first focus distance value.
Surgical instrument including a drive assembly movable in a non-motorized mode of operation
A surgical instrument comprising a shaft, an end effector, a housing, a drive assembly, and a manually-driven actuator is disclosed. The end effector comprises a first jaw and a second jaw rotatable relative to the first jaw between an open position and a clamped position. The housing comprises a rotary input movable by a motor. The drive assembly is operably engaged with the rotary input. The drive assembly is movable by the motor in a motorized mode of operation to transition the second jaw toward the clamped position. The drive assembly is movable in a non-motorized mode of operation by the manually-driven actuator to permit a transition of the second jaw toward the open position to release tissue between the first jaw and the second jaw.
Mobile device for viewing of dental treatment outcomes
A mobile computing device comprises an AR display, an image capture device that generates image data of a face of a viewer of the AR display, and a processing device. The processing device receives the image data; processes the image data to identify a position of a dental arch in the image data; determines a treatment outcome for the dental arch; generates a post-treatment image of the dental arch that shows the treatment outcome; generates updated image data comprising a superimposition of the post-treatment image of the dental arch over the received image data depicting the face of the viewer; and outputs the updated image data to the AR display, wherein the post-treatment image of the dental arch is superimposed over the dental arch in the received image data such that the post-treatment image is visible in the AR display rather than a true depiction of the dental arch.
