Generating a patient-specific orthopaedic surgical plan from medical image data

摘要

Technologies for generating a patient-specific surgical plan from medical image data include receiving an orthopaedic surgical plan request from a computing device of a healthcare facility via a network, receiving a medical image of bony anatomy of a patient, and receiving constraint data corresponding to an orthopaedic surgical procedure to be performed upon the bony anatomy of the patient. Such technologies may further include determining whether the orthopaedic surgical procedure to be performed upon the bony anatomy of the patient is a difficult orthopaedic surgical procedure, generating a first surgical plan for the orthopaedic surgical procedure to be performed in response to determining that the orthopaedic procedure to be performed is not a difficult orthopaedic surgical procedure, and generating a second surgical plan for the orthopaedic surgical procedure to be performed in response to determining that the orthopaedic procedure to be performed is a difficult orthopaedic surgical procedure.

1. A method for generating a surgical plan for an orthopaedic surgical procedure from medical image data, the method comprising:
receiving an orthopaedic surgical plan request from a computing device of a healthcare facility via a network; receiving a medical image of bony anatomy of a patient; receiving constraint data corresponding to an orthopaedic surgical procedure to be performed upon the bony anatomy of the patient; determining patient-specific anatomical data from the medical image of the bony anatomy of the patient; determining whether the patient-specific anatomical data is at least one of outside of a reference range or exceeds a reference threshold; determining whether the orthopaedic surgical procedure to be performed upon the bony anatomy of the patient is a difficult orthopaedic surgical procedure based on the received medical images and the received constraint data; generating one of: (i) a first surgical plan for the orthopaedic surgical procedure to be performed upon the bony anatomy of the patient in response to determining that the orthopaedic procedure to be performed upon the bony anatomy the patient is not a difficult orthopaedic surgical procedure; or (ii) a second surgical plan, different from the first surgical plan, for the orthopaedic surgical procedure to be performed upon the bony anatomy of the patient in response to determining that the orthopaedic procedure to be performed upon the bony anatomy the patient is a difficult orthopaedic surgical procedure; and transmitting at least one of the first or second surgical plans to the computing device of the healthcare facility via the network; wherein determining whether the orthopaedic surgical procedure to be performed upon the bony anatomy of the patient is a difficult orthopaedic surgical procedure comprises determining whether the orthopaedic surgical procedure to be performed upon the bony anatomy of the patient is a difficult orthopaedic surgical procedure as a function of determining that the patient-specific anatomical data is at least one of outside of the reference range or exceeds the reference threshold.
