A computing system generates, based on medical imaging data of bones of a joint of a patient, bony landmark data that characterizes relationships between two or more landmarks on one or more of the bones of the joint of the patient. Additionally, the computing system applies a classifier algorithm that has been trained using training data to select a class associated with the patient from among a plurality of classes. The classifier algorithm takes the bony landmark data of the patient as input.

Disclosed herein is an endoprosthetic spacer (100, 200, 300) for administering a therapeutic treatment, in particular a theragnostic treatment. The endoprosthetic spacer (100, 200, 300) comprises a body (102) that is configured to replace at least a part of a bone, a sensor assembly (104) comprising at least one sensor (104A, 104B, 104C), a communication module (108) configured to transmit a signal; and a controller (106) configured to read out a sensor signal from the at least one sensor (104A, 104B, 104C) and to transmit an output signal (110) via the communication module (108).

The present disclosure relates to an implant component (10, 20) having at least one connecting portion (30, 60), the connecting portion being at least partly coated with a Zr coating and the coating having a thickness of 1-20 μm, preferably 1-6 μm. The present disclosure further relates to a modular endoprosthesis comprising an implant component, to the use of a Zr coating to prevent crevice corrosion and/or fretting corrosion, and to the use of an implant component in patients suffering from a metal allergy.

Disclosed herein is an implant. The implant can include a body and a plurality of fixation members. The body can define an articular surface and a bone engaging surface opposite the articular surface. The bone engaging surface can define a groove that separates a first section of the bone engaging surface from a second section of the bone engaging surface. The plurality of fixation members can extend from the bone engaging surface.

A system of prosthetic implants for a total knee replacement procedure is provided. The system includes a tibial component of a knee joint implant, a tibial insert configured to be positioned against the superior side of the platform of the tibial component, a first femoral component of a knee joint implant, and a second femoral component of a knee joint implant.

An orthopedic system for delivery of a therapeutic agent to a bone includes an elongate stem adapted to be inserted into an intramedullary canal, an inlet configured to receive the therapeutic agent, and one or more outlets configured to deliver the therapeutic agent to the bone. The elongate stem may comprise one or more protrusions to engage the bone, and one or more channels extending longitudinally therein, fluidly coupled to the inlet. The therapeutic agent flows from the inlet through the one or more channels and exits into the intramedullary canal through the one or more outlets. The system may be configured to allow one or more dimensions of the system to be adjusted to accommodate the anatomy of a patient.

Described here are systems and methods for positioning a surgical implant, such as a glenoid component, or other medical device intra-operatively. In general, the systems and methods described in the present disclosure implement a computer vision system, which may be a structured light computer vision system, together with a suitable optical tracker as an accurate intra-operative tool for predicting post-operative implant position in surgical procedures.
