Abstract

A method of operating a surgical robot includes identifying, automatically based on image data of a bone, a soft tissue attachment point on a virtual bone model, planning an implant pose relative to a virtual model of the bone by using the soft tissue attachment point and optimizing planned implant pose based on bone density information, and controlling the surgical robot based on the implant pose to facilitate preparation of the bone to receive an implant in the implant pose.
