The present disclosure relates to a system and method for locating a target subject associated with an X-ray system. The X-ray system may include an X-ray source, a detection component, an arm, and a platform. The X-ray system may also include a first positioning component, a second positioning component, or a third positioning component. The first positioning component may be configured to determine a target point where a region of interest (ROI) of the target subject locates. The second positioning component may be configured to locate the target subject. The third positioning component may be configured to obtain location information of a target device associated with the target subject in real-time.

Described herein are methods and systems for determining force in a robotic surgical system. In some embodiments, a force applied by a robotic component (e.g. a robotic arm, a segment of a robotic arm, or a joint of a robotic arm) is determined. Also described herein are methods and systems for providing visual (e.g., direction and magnitude) feedback to a user without the need for direct haptic feedback. Such visual feedback may be presented to the user in conjunction with haptic feedback.

One variation of a method for tracking objects within a surgical space during a surgery includes: based on a first image depicting the surgical space at a first time, detecting a first object and a constellation of objects in the surgical space, estimating distances from each object—in the constellation of objects—to the first object, and calculating a contamination risk of the first object based on contamination scores and distances to the first object for each object in the constellation of objects; calculating a contamination score of the first object based on a combination of the contamination risks of the first object during the surgery; and, in response to the contamination score of the first object exceeding a threshold contamination score prior to contact between the first object and a patient, serving a prompt within the surgical space to address sterility of the first object.

An imaging probe comprises a camera or endoscope with an external detector array, in which the probe is sized and shaped for surgical placement in an eye to image the eye from an interior of the eye during treatment. The imaging probe and a treatment probe can be coupled together with a fastener or contained within a housing. The imaging probe and the treatment probe can be sized and shaped to enter the eye through an incision in the cornea and image one or more of the ciliary body band or the scleral spur. The treatment probe may comprise a treatment optical fiber or a surgical placement device to deliver an implant. A processor coupled to the detector can be configured with instructions to identify a location of one or more of the ciliary body band, the scleral spur, Schwalbe's line, or Schlemm's canal from the image.

This document describes devices used during surgical procedures for the treatment of heart conditions. For example, this document describes technology to monitor the operations of a heart-lung machine and then shows associated read outs on a head-worn display in order to provide an augmented-reality presentation. For example, various sensors on and around a heart-lung machine, patient, and/or extracorporeal circuit can monitor the operations of the procedure using the heart-lung machine.

A surgical image capture and display system includes a handheld image capture and pointing device and a display assembly. An image is captured by an image sensor of the handheld device and displayed on the display assembly. The image sensor detects light emitted by one or more beacons of the display assembly. The system determines, based on the light emitted by the one or more beacons, a position or orientation of the handheld device relative to the display assembly. The system updates display of a graphical user interface comprising the image on the display assembly in accordance with the determined position or orientation of the handheld device.

An augmented reality, AR, system (100) for use in a medical procedure is disclosed. The AR system (100) comprises an AR headset (2), and a processor (12). The AR headset (2) comprises a camera (6a, 6b), a near eye display (4a, 4b) and a depth sensor (10a, 10b). The processor (12) is configured to adjust the position of the image obtained by the camera (6a, 6b) on the display (4a, 4b) throughout the medical procedure based on changes in the distance measured by the depth sensor (10a, 10b).

An example method includes determining, by the one or more processors, an actual orientation of a surgical pin as installed in a bone of a patient; obtaining, by the one or more processors, a planned orientation of the surgical pin; determining, by the one or more processors and based on a comparison between the actual orientation of the surgical pin and the planned orientation of the surgical pin, whether the surgical pin was installed as planned; and responsive to determining that the surgical pin was not installed as planned, outputting, via a visualization device, virtual guidance to assist a surgeon in correcting the installation of the surgical pin.

A medical support arm includes: a support arm that supports an endoscope; an actuator that drives the support arm; a measurement unit that measures a load applied to the actuator; a generation unit that generates three-dimensional information in a body into which the endoscope is inserted; and a correction unit that corrects the three-dimensional information on a basis of the measured load.
