Zusammenfassung:A method for verifying the calibration of a digitizer during a computer-assisted medical procedure is provided utilizing a tracked digitizer and a secondary tracking array (e.g., a bone tracking array). A medical system for performing the computerized method for verifying the calibration of a digitizer during a computer-assisted medical procedure is provided. A method for verifying the calibration of a tracking array relative to a feature with the system includes a first calibration definition and a second calibration definition transmitted to the tracking system. A first feature and a second feature together are assembled. The calibration is verified by computing the deviations between the tracked position of the first feature and the tracked position of the second feature using: a recorded position and orientation of the first and second tracking array, and the uploaded first calibration definition and the uploaded second calibration definition.
