Abstract
A method according to at least one embodiment of the present disclosure includes receiving a plurality of images, the plurality of images depicting a navigation probe contacting a plurality of divots on a medical instrument; receiving information about the medical instrument; and determining, based on the plurality of images and the information, a pose of the medical instrument.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- receiving a plurality of images, the plurality of images depicting a navigation probe contacting each of at least a first divot, a second divot, a third divot, and a fourth divot on a medical instrument, wherein the first divot, the second divot, and the third divot are disposed on an upper body of the medical instrument, and wherein the fourth divot is disposed on a screw of the medical instrument;
- receiving information about the medical instrument;
- and
- determining, based on the plurality of images and the information, a pose of the medical instrument.

A system, comprising:
- a surgical device comprising:
- an upper body with a first divot, a second divot, and a third divot;
- a clamp connected to the upper body and configured to attach the surgical device to an anatomical element;
- and
- a screw that secures the clamp to the anatomical element, the screw comprising a fourth divot;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing data thereon that, when processed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- receive a plurality of images depicting a navigation probe contacting each of the first divot, the second divot, the third divot, and the fourth divot;
- receive information about the surgical device;
- and
- determine, based on the plurality of images and the information about the surgical device, a pose of the surgical device.

An apparatus, comprising:
- an imaging device;
- a bone mount device configured to attach to an anatomical element, the bone mount device comprising:
- an upper body with a first divot, a second divot, and a third divot;
- a clamp connected to the upper body;
- and
- a screw component that attaches the clamp to the anatomical element, the screw component comprising a fourth divot;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing data thereon that, when processed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- receive a plurality of images from the imaging device depicting a plurality of navigation markers disposed on a navigation probe that contacts each of the first divot, the second divot, the third divot, and the fourth divot;
- receive information about an orientation of the first divot, the second divot, the third divot, and the fourth divot;
- and
- determine, based on the plurality of images and the information about the orientation of the first divot, the second divot, the third divot, and the fourth divot, a pose of the bone mount device.
