A surgical instrument assembly configured to display a representation of the surgical instrument relative to a trajectory (e.g., a desired trajectory for drilling into an implant) based image data from an image sensor (e.g., a camera). For example, the surgical instrument assembly may be configured to determine a desired trajectory (e.g., a central axis of a distal hole of an intramedullary nail) based on X-ray image data representing at least one fiducial marker (e.g., an array of ArUco markers) and representing an anatomical structure and/or an implant. The surgical instrument assembly may in real time display a representation of the orientation and/or position of the surgical instrument (e.g., the orientation and position of a drill bit of the surgical instrument) in relation to the desired trajectory based on image sensor data that is generated based on an orientation of the at least one fiducial marker detected by an image sensor.

X-wing enhanced guidance system for distal targeting

The disclosure is directed to methods and systems for cleaning scopes using a camera port (e.g. trocar) which has been modified to include a cleaning system. A trocar is a device designed to allow surgical instruments and tools to be quickly and easily inserted into a body cavity without contacting the surrounding tissue.

Intraoperative endoscope cleaning system

Apparatus, systems, and methods for cleaning an endoscope during a procedure, are disclosed. One method comprises utilizing a trocar comprising a main body defining a cavity for receiving an endoscope, a wash orifice disposed in the main body and configured allow a flow of wash solution into the cavity, and a gas orifice disposed between the distal end of the main body and the wash orifice, the gas orifice configured allow a flow of gas into the cavity, the method comprising: washing the endoscope; drying the endoscope; and managing residual fluids on the endoscope or in the cavity, or both.
