A system receives a first set of points corresponding to an anatomical feature. Each point in the first set of points represents a position in a first frame. The system receives a second set of points corresponding to the anatomical feature. Each point in the second set of points represents a position in a second frame. The system identifies a first subset of the first set of points and determines a first transformation to align the first subset of the first set of points with the second set of points. The first set of points is transformed based on the first transformation. The system identifies a second subset of the first set of points and determines a second transformation to align the first and second subsets of the first set of points with the second set of points. The first set of points are transformed based on the second transformation.

METHODS FOR MULTI-MODAL BIOIMAGING DATA INTEGRATION AND VISUALIZATION

A multi-modal visualization system (MMVS) is provided, which may be used to analyze and visualize bioimaging data, objects, and pointers, such as neuroimaging data, surgical tools, and pointing rods. MMVS can integrate multiple bioimaging modalities to visualize a plurality of bioimaging datasets simultaneously, such as anatomical bioimaging data and functional bioimaging data.

System and Method for Revision Hip Surgery
20230010852 · 2023-01-12 ·

A system and method for identifying and digitally displaying a femoral implant during hip revision surgery to guide a surgeon in detaching the femoral implant from the femur. Some embodiments include digitally registering a portion of the exposed femoral implant to create a representative point set. The system then digitally overlays a medical image of the implant and/or a 3-dimensional model of the femoral implant. Some embodiments further include a surgical tracking system configured to track a surgical cutting tool. Moreover, the system visually illustrates the cutting path of the surgical tool to convey to the surgeon where the surgeon has already cut and where the surgeon needs to cut in order to fully detach the femoral implant from the bone.

Digital image analysis for robotic installation of surgical implants

Computer-implemented digital image analysis methods, apparatuses, and systems for robotic installation of surgical implants are disclosed. A disclosed apparatus plans a route within an anatomy of a patient from an incision site to a surgical implant site for robotic installation of a surgical implant. The apparatus uses digital imaging data to identify less-invasive installation paths and determine the dimensions of the surgical implant components being used. The apparatus segments the surgical implant into surgical implant subcomponents and modifies the surgical implant subcomponents, such that they can be inserted using the identified less-invasive installation paths.
