Surgical Navigation Systems TRIZ Cases

A robotic surgery platform integrates a fluoroscopic imaging system onto its mobile base to maintain registration between the surgical instrument and patient anatomy.

A data processing method correlates radiation beam position with target location using external tracking markers and predictive modeling.

A tip extension with a round end attaches to irregular handpieces, enabling precise calibration via image-guided systems.

A dongle mimics magnetic load characteristics to enable wireless communication between a patient interface unit and a location pad.

Automated servo catheter replaces manual navigation with pull-wire control, reducing procedural time and complexity during cardiac ablation.

Adjustable spacers measure medial and lateral gap distances during range of motion tests, correcting manual assessment errors in knee arthroplasty.

Reference markings on a registration tracker define spatial relationships to calculate object location without invasive fiducial attachments.

A nonlinear relation derivation method determines coordinates using electrical signal-values and magnetic tracking sensors.

Optical sensors on the verification element detect reference markers to eliminate measurement errors from wire slack and snaking.

A mobile C-arm x-ray system generates 3D anatomical reconstructions from manually rotated images and pose data.
