Abstract

See full text

A system for performing a navigated surgery comprises a first target attached to a patient at a surgical site and a second target at the surgical site. An optical sensor is coupled to the user and detects the first target and second target simultaneously in a working volume of the sensor. An intra-operative computing unit (ICU) receives sensor data concerning the first target and second target, calculates a relative pose and provides display information. The sensor can be handheld, body-mounted or head-mounted, and communicate wirelessly with the ICU. The sensor may also be mountable on a fixed structure (e.g. proximate) and in alignment with the surgical site. The ICU may receive user input via the sensor, where the user input is at least one of sensor motions, voice commands, and gestures presented to the optical sensor by the user. The display information may be presented via a (heads-up) display unit.
