ENTRY PORTAL NAVIGATION

摘要

A method and a corresponding device is proposed, for determining a location on a bone surface and for performing a simulation of an insertion of an implant based on the determined location. The simulation may comprise the steps of identifying an implantation axis of the bone in the first image, and aligning a visualization of the implant with the implantation axis, with respect to the determined location.

主权项

1. A method for identifying an entry point at a bone for assisting an insertion of an implant, the method comprising the steps of:
determining a location on a bone surface in a first image generated from a first direction by means of an imaging unit, performing a first simulation of an insertion of an implant based on the determined location, the first simulation comprising: identifying an implantation axis of the bone in the first image, and aligning a virtual visualization of the implant with the implantation axis, with respect to the determined location.
