Application: Systems and methods related to robotic guidance in surgery (Patent ID: US20240050158A1)
The patent filed by Globus Medical Inc. describes a method and system for surgical implant planning using a computer. The method involves obtaining initial and target images of a patient's bone, generating a transformation matrix to conform the bone contours, and creating a transformed location data structure for the implant device. This data structure is used to display a graphical representation of the implant device overlaid on the target image. The system includes a network interface, display device, processor, and memory to execute these operations efficiently.
Additionally, the patent details the use of the method in positioning surgical screws relative to the bone, determining tip and tail locations, and modifying bone size and rotational angles to conform to the target image. The system can also adjust the implant device's position based on distances from bone surfaces and rules defining penetration depth and angle. Furthermore, the transformed location data structure can be provided to a surgical robotic system for precise positioning of a surgical end-effector during implantation, enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of the surgical procedure.
