The purposes of this study were (1) to compare lower limb alignment measurements between radiographs and computer-assisted surgery and (2) to evaluate the discrepancy in lower limb alignment between computer-assisted surgery with a high tibial osteotomy protocol and computer-assisted surgery with a total knee arthroplasty (TKA) protocol in the same knee. Seventy-one TKAs were performed on patie...

Methods: In a prospective, double-blind, randomized clinical study, 100 patients eligible for ACL reconstruction with a transtibial technique were stratified by surgeon and randomized to either conventional or computer-assisted surgery. Measurement of femoral and tibial tunnel placement with use of three-dimensional computed tomography (CT) was used as the primary outcome to compare conventiona...

With the advent of precise preand intraoperative imaging means, the development of sophisticated image data visualization, and the accessibility of submillimetric, real-time tracking of objects in space, surgical navigation systems have been created that aim at enhanced surgical accuracy and ultimately improved clinical outcome [3, 6, 9, 13, 17, 20]. Numerous studies have shown the superiority ...

The purpose of this report is to present an overview of contract W2207-7-AF78/01-SV, entitled \Development of a Practical Computer Software Veri cation System." EVES Project TR-90-5429-11 1

Artificial Intelligence Surgery is a surgical journal that focuses on the interface of computers and art surgery. The aim this to create space for discourse in terms topics related artificial intelligence (AI) surgery such as smart technology/digital surgery, computer-assisted systems data science. intention research direction robotics includes clinical technological work tele-manipulation, rob...

Most of the early failures of total knee replacements are related to technical flaws. Conventional ancillary devices achieve good alignment in the frontal plane in only an average of 75% of total knee replacements. Computer-assisted surgery may improve the technical quality of implantation surgery. The aim of our study was to evaluate the use of computer-assisted surgery using a quality control...

In this paper we focus on the design of Computer Assisted Surgery (CAS) systems and more generally Augmented Reality (AR) systems that assist a user in performing a task on a physical object. Digital information or new actions are defined by the AR system to facilitate or to enrich the natural way the user would interact with the real environment. We focus on the outputs of such systems, so tha...
