Abstract

A surgical computing device may include a processor configured to implement two neural networks, a primary neural network trained with a procedure focus and support neural network trained with a patient focus. Data indicative of a surgical patient, a target procedure, and a proposed procedure plan may be input to the support neural network. The support neural network may generate a patient specific mapping from this data. The patient specific mapping and the data indicative of a surgical patient, a target procedure, and a proposed procedure plan may be input to the primary neural network. The primary neural network may output a modified procedure plan that is different from the proposed procedure plan. In an example, the support neural network is trained to isolate anatomical elements. And the primary neural network is trained to identify procedure plans associated with improved patient outcomes. Such a two-network approach may facilitate the use of diverse training data sets to better refine procedure plans for a variety of uses.
