Orthognathic surgery corrects a wide range of minor and major facial and jaw irregularities. This surgery will improve the patients ’ ability to chew, speak and breathe. In many cases, a better appearance will also result. With the recent advances in virtual reality (VR) and three-dimensional (3D

Computer assisted spine surgery follows the basic ideas developed for Computer Assisted Medical Intervention (CAMI). Quantitative analysis of medical images makes it possible to localize with great accuracy anatomical structures. This is fruitfully used to drive guiding sys-tems. This method tends

Cone-beam computed tomographic evaluation of the condylar remodeling occurring after mandibular set-back by bilateral sagittal split ramus osteotomy and rigid fixation Objective: To evaluate condylar head remodeling after mandibular set-back sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) with rigid fixation

The use of ultrasound in acquisition of the anterior pelvic plane in computer-assisted total hip replacement

The use of computer navigation in orthopedic surgery allows for real time intraoperative feed-back resulting in higher precision of bone cuts, better alignment of implants and extremities, easier fracture reductions, less radiation and better documentation than what is possible in classical

data) into a single comprehensive display. In the beginning, computerized methods (so-called navigational tools) were developed for image-guided neurosurgery. Currently, advanced computer-assisted surgical capabilities that were developed for the brain have been extended to other clinical applications

as either passive or active devices, or can be categorized as po-sitioning or milling/cutting devices. Computer assisted ortho-pedic surgery is a related area of technological development in orthopedics; however, robot-assisted orthopedic surgery can achieve levels of accuracy, precision, and safety
