Medical user interface for orthopedical surgical robotic system

Abstract

Recent research in orthopedic surgeries indicates that computerassisted robotic systems have shown that robots may improve the precision and accuracy of the surgery which in turn leads to better long-term outcomes. An orthopedic robotic system called OrthoRoby and an intelligent control architecture that will be used in bone cutting operations were developed. In this paper, a medical user interface was developed and integrated into the OrthoRoby system. Medical user interface used Computed Tomography (CT) images of the patients' bone.
