The invention relates to a system for navigating a surgical instrument (), comprising a processor configured for:

System for navigating a surgical instrument

A modular fluoro-navigation instrument including a base made of a substantially radiotransparent material. The base is intended to be rigidly secured to a patient's bone and a tracker rigidly attachable to the base. The instrument has a registration phantom separate from the tracker which includes a plurality of radiopaque fiducials. The base and the registration phantom includes respective attachment members for reproducibly attaching the registration phantom to the base.

Modular fluoro-navigation instrument

A fluoro-navigation system for navigating a tool relative to a medical image. The system includes a motorized X-ray imaging system for acquiring a plurality of images of a region of interest of a patient, the position of each image being known. Also included is a localization system, a registration phantom with a plurality of radiopaque fiducials, a tracker for being tracked by the localization system, a processor for receiving the plurality of images and for reconstructing a 3D medical image from the images using radiopaque fiducials visible in the plurality of images. Also included is base made of a substantially radiotransparent material, to be rigidly secured to a patient's bone and having a reproducible fixation system for attaching the registration phantom and/or tracker.

The invention relates to a device for minimally invasive attachment of a tracker () and/or a registration phantom () to a patient's bone, comprising a base () made of a substantially radiotransparent material, characterized in that the base () comprises:

Device for minimally invasive attachment of a tracker and/or a registration phantom to a patient's bone

A patient-specific surgical guide including at least one guiding element for guiding a surgical instrument to treat a subcutaneous anatomical structure of the patient. A first patient-specific contact element with a first patient-specific contact surface to fit a portion of the subcutaneous anatomical structure is rigidly connected to the at least one guiding element. The patient-specific surgical guide includes at least one second patient-specific contact element having at least one support element for supporting a percutaneous pin or needle whose tip is intended to contact a point of the subcutaneous anatomical structure or an anatomical structure rigidly connected thereto. An elongated junction member rigidly couples the at least one guiding element to the at least one second contact element.

Patient-specific surgical guide

The invention relates to a method for determining a trajectory of a motorized X-ray imaging system for acquiring images of a patient to whom a phantom comprising radiopaque fiducials having a known spatial arrangement has been attached so as to be visible on at least one 2D image of a body region of interest acquired by the X-ray imaging system by acquiring one first 2D image of the phantom by the X-ray imaging system in a given position; detecting the fiducials of the phantom in the acquired first image; based on the detected fiducials, determining the position of the phantom in a referential of the X-ray imaging system; determining a set of positions of the X-ray imaging system configured to acquire a set of 2D X-ray images of the region of interest such that the set of 2D X-ray images complies with at least one imposed requirement on the position of the phantom relative to a part of the set of images and combining the set of determined positions to determine a trajectory of the X-ray imaging system with respect to the position of the phantom.

A device for positioning a cutting guide with respect to a bone comprising a body forming the cutting guide or intended to be fixed to the cutting guide; a least two contact members intended to freely contact the bone; and adjustment means for individually varying the relative position of the body with respect to each contact member.

Method for positioning a bone cutting guide

The invention concerns a system for partially cutting a bone, comprising a device for guiding a cutting tool. According to the invention, the device comprises: &#x2014;an upper face forming a mechanical stop for a first part of the cutting tool, the upper face being non-cutting and thicker than the blade, so as to limit the insertion of the blade into said bone in order to partially cut said bone, the upper stop face having a profile that is a homothety of the edge profile of said hinge, the guide device having a pre-defined range to ensure the steering of the blade of the cutting tool in a pre-defined direction of partial cutting of the bone, &#x2014;a second part that fastens to the bone and a first fastening means for fastening the guide device to the second part and &#x2014;a means for adjusting the orientation of the guide device relative to the second part.
