Embodiment Construction

[0018] Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] first reference figure 1 , illustrating the navigation system 10 . Navigation system 10 may be used by one or more users, such as user 12, for various purposes or procedures. Navigation system 10 may be used to determine or track the location of instrument 16 within a volume. Exemplary devices and systems include those disclosed in US Patent No. 7,542,791 issued June 2, 2009, which is incorporated herein by reference.

[0020] Positioning can include both three-dimensional X, Y, Z position and orientation. Orientation may include one or more degrees of freedom, such as three degrees of freedom. However, it should be appreciated that any suitable degree of freedom positional information (eg, up to or less than six degrees of freedom positional information) may be determined and / or presented to user 12 .

[0021] Tracking the location of the instrument 16 may as...

Abstract

Disclosed is a method and system for performing a procedure. The system may include a navigation system and / or a surgical robot to be used to at least assist in the procedure. The system may assist indelineating objects and / or determining physical characteristics of subject portions. The system may assist in performing and / or a workflow of the procedure.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure generally relates to a system and method for determining a position (including position and orientation) of a component in space relative to an object. Background technique [0002] This section provides background information related to the present disclosure which is not necessarily prior art. [0003] Various procedures can be chosen to remove, repair or replace parts of objects. For example, in a human subject, a portion of the human anatomy may be selected for removal, repair, or replacement. During the procedure, minimally invasive or less invasive procedures can be chosen. Less invasive procedures may limit direct observation of the working area within the subject, but may reduce recovery time and / or subject discomfort. [0004] Navigation systems for various procedures, such as surgical procedures, assembly procedures, etc., allow tracking of instruments or objects. Tracking systems may include suitable tracking syste...
