Interactive CSG subtraction

A system and method for surgical visualization transform a cut procedure into a visual representation, e.g., during resection via a cutting tool. The system and method obtain shape data, e.g., bone shape data for the bone to be resected, and generate a CSG object model such as a bone model. Another...

Zusammenfassung:A system and method for surgical visualization transform a cut procedure into a visual representation, e.g., during resection via a cutting tool. The system and method obtain shape data, e.g., bone shape data for the bone to be resected, and generate a CSG object model such as a bone model. Another CSG model is also generated, based, for example, on the cutting tool shape. During resection, tool position data is collected and multiple CSG subtraction models are generated based on the cutting tool model and the position data. The CSG bone model and subtraction models are used to create an image space visual representation by merging the CSG subtraction models into a single merged CSG subtraction model and subtracting the single merged CSG subtraction model from the CSG bone model.
