Abstract

Long-bone fractures such as femur fractures are very common in trauma centers. Robotic assisted fracture surgery (RAFS) can facilitate the minimally invasive surgery which reduces scarring, infection risk and long hospital stays. One important step in RAFS is to establish the coordinate system link between patient joint (rigidly connected with the robotic system) and an external tracking system. As X-ray fluoroscopic images are routinely used during the procedure, an automatic method is proposed to detect and localize landmarks on the tracking tool using live X-ray image. The proposed method uses combination of block detection, geometric model matching and principle component analysis. A successful rate of 91.3% is achieved after testing on 650 X-ray images and accuracy is within 0.5 mm.
