Abstract
Respective longitudinal insertion paths for two tools are planned and associated with 3D image data of a skeletal portion. While respective portions of the tools are disposed at first respective locations along their respective longitudinal insertion paths, first and second x-rays of the respective portions of the tools and the skeletal portion are acquired from respective first and second views. A computer processor matches between a tool in the first x-ray and the same tool in the second x-ray by: (A) identifying respective tool elements of each tool within the first and second x-rays, (B) registering the first and second x-rays to the 3D image data, and (C) based upon the identified respective tool elements and the registration, identifying for at least one tool element a correspondence between the tool element and the respective planned longitudinal insertion path for that tool. Other applications are also described.
