Abstract

A method for verifying a bone entry point includes receiving a surgical plan that defines a target bone entry point and a first portion of a bone surface at least partially surrounding the target bone entry point; positioning an imaging device near an identified bone entry point; receiving, from the imaging device, an image of a second portion of the bone surface surrounding the identified bone entry point; comparing at least one feature of the first portion to at least one feature of the second portion to quantify a degree of similarity therebetween; and generating, when the quantified degree of similarity between the first portion and the second portion exceeds a threshold, a confirmation.
