    Abstract: Systems and methods of tracking a head of a patient are provided. The system includes a motion tracking system and a head tracker. The head tracker includes a frame, at least one trackable target coupled to the frame, at least one nose pad coupled to the frame, and a pair of adjustable ear coupling members coupled to the frame and shaped for engaging with at least a portion of a back surface of an ear of the patient. The head tracker is configured to apply a clamping force to hold the trackable target in a stable spatial relationship with a location of interest in the head. The motion tracking system includes a sensor for tracking the trackable target and a processor configured for determining a position of the location of interest from the position and orientation of the trackable target and the stable spatial relationship.

    Abstract: A method and system are provided for measuring changes in a pose of a human jaw within a coordinate system of a pose tracking system. The method involves providing a configurable arm; configuring the configurable arm such that at least one rigid target portion of the configurable arm is compliant with operational conditions of the pose tracking system when a selected anchor region of a surface of an anchor portion of the configurable arm is in close proximity to a selected attachment region of the human jaw; positioning the configurable arm such that the anchor region is in close proximity to the attachment region; applying and curing a paste to rigidly couple the anchor region to the attachment region, and operating the pose tracking system to measure changes to the pose of the at least one rigid target portion when the configurable arm is rigidly coupled to the human jaw.

    Abstract: An apparatus, method and kit are provided for registering a human jaw with a CT image of the human jaw. The apparatus includes a moldable retainer and an arm having a moldable link portion and a rigid fixation portion. The link portion is attachable to the retainer and hardenable to maintain a fixed mapping between the fixation portion and the retainer. The fixation portion includes a CT marker connection region for detachably attaching a CT marker that includes a fiducial. The fixation portion also includes a tag connection region for detachably attaching a tag that is trackable by a pose measurement system. The pose of the tag connection region relative to a pose of the CT marker connection region is fixed prior to attaching either the tag or the CT marker, providing a known and fixed tag to fiducial coordinate mapping.

    Abstract: A surgical instrument tracking assembly includes a trackable target and an adapter that can be rigidly coupled to the trackable target such that the pose of the adapter can be determined from the pose of the trackable target. The tracking assembly also includes stretchable tape for stretchably winding around the adapter and a surgical instrument to provide a tensile clamping force holding the adapter to the surgical instrument in a fixed, stable, spatial relationship so that a pose of the surgical instrument is determinable from the pose of the adapter. The stretchable tape may be highly elastic to provide a long-lasting tensile clamping force, sufficiently strong to resist tearing when being stretched by a human hand, and self-engaging such that once the tape is wound on itself, the long-lasting tensile clamping force of the winding is maintained even when the pulling force is removed.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing at least one fixture for use in an image guidance system for determining a registration coordinate mapping between a human jaw and a volumetric image of that jaw. The system includes one or more channeled trays and a moldable thermoplastic material for inserting into a channeled tray. The moldable thermoplastic material is hardenable into an impression part such that when mated to the at least a portion of the human jaw and held within the channel of the channeled tray, the impression part resists displacement relative to the human jaw. At least one channeled tray in the system includes a fiducial region detectable in the volumetric CT image in a fixed spatial relation relative to the coupling surface region and at least one channeled tray is pose-trackable by the image guidance system.

    Abstract: A system and method of operating a surgical navigation system to determine the location of a point of interest (POI) in a 3D coordinate frame of a surgical tool (tool frame) using a calibrated imaging device to capture an image of a portion of the surgical tool's surface the calibrated imaging device having calibration data that enables a processor of the surgical navigation system to map from a 2D location in the image to a projection line in a 3D coordinate frame of the imaging device (image frame). The system is operated to determine a mapping between an image frame and a tool frame. The processor is operated to determine the location of the POI in the tool frame based on the image and the mapping between the image frame and the tool frame.
