Title:
FIXTURES FOR FLUOROSCOPIC IMAGING SYSTEMS AND RELATED NAVIGATION SYSTEMS AND METHODS
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2021171655
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide, prior to and/or during a surgical procedure performed using surgical navigation, proper registration between a coordinate system of a fluoroscopic x-ray imaging system, a coordinate system of a tracking system, and/or a coordinate system of a pre-operative image of the anatomy.SOLUTION: A fixture for a fluoroscopic x-ray imaging system is provided, where the fluoroscopic imaging system includes a C-arm, an x-ray source 3001 at a first end of the C-arm, and an x-ray detector 3005 at a second end of the C-arm. The fixture includes a processor, and memory coupled with the processor. The memory includes instructions that are executable by the processor so that the processor is configured to detect an x-ray emission from the x-ray source toward the x-ray detector, determine an offset of the x-ray source relative to the x-ray detector in response to detecting the x-ray emission, and provide an indication of the offset of the x-ray source to a medical navigation system.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 41
