METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PLANNING IMPLANT COMPONENT POSITION

摘要

A method for planning an orthopedic procedure including positioning a virtual implant component relative to a 3D volume of scan data of a patient is disclosed. A 3D volume of scan data of a patient, which includes scan data of a bony anatomy of the patient, is provided. A first 2D view of scan data is generated from the 3D volume of the scan data, wherein the 2D view of scan data comprises a first a portion of the bony anatomy. First positional information for the virtual implant component is defining relative to the first 2D view. A second 2D view of scan data is generated from the 3D volume of scan data, wherein the second 2D view of scan data is provided from the 3D volume of scan data at an angle relative to the first 2D view of scan data and comprises a second portion of the bony anatomy. Second positional information for the virtual implant component is defined relative to the second 2D view of scan data. 3D positional information for the virtual implant component relative the 3D volume of scan data is provided based on the first positional information and the second positional information.
