Abstract

A verification block structure and a verification system for orthopedic surgery are provided. The verification block structure includes a base and an artificial bone block. The base has a carrying portion and a bottom corresponding to the carrying portion. The artificial bone block is detachably fixed to the carrying portion of the base, and a shape or a material of the artificial bone block is determined upon a bone characteristic of a patient and/or a surgical method.

Claims (17)

1 . A verification block structure for an orthopedic surgery, comprising:

a base having a carrying portion and a bottom corresponding to the carrying portion; and

an artificial bone block detachably fixed to the carrying portion of the base, wherein a shape or a material of the artificial bone block is determined upon a bone characteristic of a patient and/or a surgical method.

2 . The verification block structure according to claim 1 , wherein the base further includes a side surface that is connected to the carrying portion and the bottom, and the verification block structure further includes a plurality of marking elements which are disposed on the side surface of the base and used for position tracking.

3 . The verification block structure according to claim 1 , wherein the bone characteristic is a bone density, bone hardness or a bone pathological feature, and the surgical method is drilling, cutting, scraping or grinding.

4 . The verification block structure according to claim 3 , wherein the artificial bone block imitates a bone part of the patient, and is used to simulate and verify the drilling, cutting, scraping or grinding of the bone part.

5 . The verification block structure according to claim 4 , wherein the bone part of the patient has an external structure part and an internal structure part, the artificial bone block includes an outer part and a center part, and hardness of the outer part corresponds to a bone density of the external structure part, and hardness of the center part corresponds to a bone density of the internal structure part.

6 . A verification system for an orthopedic surgery, comprising:

a surgical instrument;

a verification block structure, including:

a base having a carrying portion and a bottom corresponding to the carrying portion; and

an artificial bone block detachably fixed to the carrying portion of the base, wherein a shape or a material of the artificial bone block is determined upon a bone characteristic of a patient and/or a surgical method; and

a calculation and detection unit configured to detect a position of the surgical instrument, so as to compute simulation data through using the surgical instrument to perform a surgery on the verification block according to the surgical method.

7 . The verification system according to claim 6 , wherein the base further includes a side surface that is connected to the carrying portion and the bottom, and the verification block structure further includes a plurality of marking elements which are disposed on the side surface of the base and used for position tracking.

8 . The verification system according to claim 6 , wherein the bone characteristic is a bone density, bone hardness or a bone pathological feature, the surgical method is drilling, cutting, scraping or grinding, and the simulation data is a drilling area, a drilling depth, a cutting area, a cutting volume, a scraping area, a scraping volume, a grinding area or a grinding volume.

9 . The verification system according to claim 8 , wherein the artificial bone block imitates a bone part of the patient, and is used to simulate and verify the drilling, cutting, scraping or grinding of the bone part.

10 . The verification system according to claim 9 , wherein the bone part of the patient has an external structure part and an internal structure part, the artificial bone block includes an outer part and a center part, and hardness of the outer part corresponds to a bone density of the external structure part, and hardness of the center part corresponds to a bone density of the internal structure part.
