Systems and methods for preoperative planning and postoperative analysis of surgical procedures
A system for determining accuracy of a surgical procedure to implant an implant on a patient bone. The system including at least one computing device configured to perform the following steps. Receive preoperative patient data including preoperative images of the patient bone and planned implant position and orientation data. Receive postoperative patient data including postoperative images of the patient bone and an implant implanted on the patient bone. Segment the patient bone and the implant from the postoperative images of the patient bone and the implant. Register separately the patient bone and the implant from the postoperative images to the patient bone from the preoperative images. And compare an implanted position and orientation of the implant from the postoperative images relative to the patient bone from the preoperative images to the planned implant position and orientation data relative to the patient bone from the preoperative images.
1 . A method for determining accuracy of a surgical modification of a patient bone, the method comprising:
receiving first data comprising a planned surgical modification to the patient bone and images of the patient bone in a first condition at a first point in time;
receiving second data comprising images of the patient bone in a second condition at a second point in time subsequent to the first point in time and an attempt to implement the planned surgical modification;
comparing the second condition to the first condition;
assigning an outcome score based on the comparison of the second condition to the first condition, the outcome score conveying an extent to which the planned surgical modification was implemented; and
storing the outcome score in a database for planning a further surgical modification of the patient bone, wherein planning the further surgical modification comprises accessing the database to retrieve the outcome score.
2 . The method of claim 1 , wherein comparing the second condition to the first condition comprises:
generating a computer model of the patient bone from the second data; and
registering the computer model of the patient bone to the patient bone in the first data.
3 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising segmenting the images of the patient bone in the first data and using the segmented images to generate a computer model of the patient bone in the first condition at the first point in time.
4 . The method of claim 3 , wherein the planned surgical modification includes a surgical procedure to implant an implant on the patient bone, and wherein the method further comprises accessing a data base to retrieve a computer model of the implant and combining the computer model of the implant with the computer model of the patient bone in the first condition.
5 . The method of claim 4 , further comprising combining data pertaining to the planned surgical modification with the computer model of the implant and the computer model of the patient bone in the first condition.
6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the planned surgical modification includes a surgical procedure to implant an implant on the patient bone.
7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the first data includes implant position and orientation data associated with the planned surgical modification.
8 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first point in time is preoperative to the planned surgical modification, and the second point in time is postoperative to the planned surgical modification.
9 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising segmenting the images of the patient bone in the second data and using the segmented images to generate a computer model of the patient bone in the second condition.
10 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the planned surgical modification includes a surgical procedure to implant an implant on the patient bone, and wherein segmenting the images of the patient bone in the second data further includes segmenting out an implant implanted onto the patient bone as part of the planned surgical modification.
11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the segmenting out of the implant implanted onto the patient bone results in the computer model of the patient bone in the second condition having a void corresponding to a location of the implant.
12 . The method of claim 9 , wherein the planned surgical modification includes a surgical procedure to implant an implant on the patient bone, and the method further comprises accessing a computer model of the implant from a data base and combining the computer model of the implant with the computer model of the patient bone in the second condition.
13 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the planned surgical modification includes a surgical procedure to implant an implant on the patient bone, and wherein the method further comprises determining the extent to which the planned surgical modification was implemented by computing a difference between a position and orientation of the implant actually implanted and a planned implant position and orientation.
14 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the planned surgical modification includes a surgical procedure to implant an implant on the patient bone, and wherein the method further comprises displaying on a display screen the implant from the images of the patient bone in the second condition overlaid on the patient bone in the images of the patient bone in the first condition.
15 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the method is performed by a surgical navigation system in communication with at least one computing device.
16 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the method is performed by a surgical robot in communication with at least one computing device.
17 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the planned surgical modification includes a surgical procedure to implant an implant on the patient bone, and the patient bone is part of a patient knee, hip, ankle, shoulder or elbow.
18 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising using the outcome score stored in the database to segment surgical plans based on a projected patient outcome.
19 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising using the outcome score stored in the database to classify the further surgical modification based on a projected clinical outcome.
