20080200844SURGICAL DEVICE WITH AN IMPACT DETECTOR - A surgical device for performing a medical procedure includes an impact detector operative to provide data indicative of the surgical device being subjected to an impact. A polling device in communication with the impact detector can determine if an impact experienced by the surgical device exceeds a predetermined threshold.08-21-2008
20090143826FASTENING SYSTEM AND FASTENING METHOD FOR REFERENCE ARRAYS - A fastening system for reference arrays, wherein a curable material fixes an attachment base which is assigned to the reference array, relative to a bone.06-04-2009
20090287216CONNECTION OF CUTTING BLOCKS - The present application relates to a surgical connecting device for connecting a first and second cutting block which each serve to make an incision on a first and second anatomical structure, comprising: a first attaching section for attaching the surgical connecting device to the first cutting block by a mechanical connection; a second attaching section for attaching the surgical connecting device to the second cutting block by a releasable mechanical connection; and a spacing section which spaces the first attaching section away from the second attaching section.11-19-2009
20100016859METHOD AND DEVICE FOR POSITIONING OR ATTACHING A MEDICAL OPERATING INSTRUMENT, ESPECIALLY AN INCISION BLOCK OR A CUTTING BLOCK - The present invention relates to a device for positioning a jig at a structure using at least one fixing element comprising at least one adjusting element which can directly interact with or guide the at least one fixing element and which can interact with the jig, so that the relative position between the at least one fixing element and the jig can be adjusted by changing the position of the at least one adjusting element, as well as to a method for positioning a jig at a structure comprising two rotatable adjusting elements, wherein the resection plane of the jig can be moved along or in a first direction when the adjusting elements are moved in the same direction and wherein the resection plane is turned if the adjusting elements are moved in an opposite or different direction or only one adjusting element is moved.01-21-2010
20100063511DEVICE FOR FASTENING A MARKER DEVICE TO A BONE - A device for fastening a marker device to a bone, comprising a fixing element including a mounting for the marker device, comprising a spring designed to contact an abutment for exerting a force between the abutment and the fixing element in the direction of the bone.03-11-2010
20100286508TOOL FOR DETECTING PLANES OF A BONE AND ASSIGNED DATA PROCESSING METHOD - The present application relates to a tool for detecting planes which are defined by anatomical landmarks, comprising a first and a second level abutment area for placing onto a body structure, wherein the first and second abutment areas have a predetermined position relative to each other, and comprising a tool marker device which has a stationary position relative to the first and second abutment areas.11-11-2010

20080255445PLANNING METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR FREE-FORM IMPLANT MODIFICATION - A method for planning a bone implant ascertains a condition of a bone to be treated, and identifies a dysfunctional part of the bone. A free-form area then can be ascertained and registered, wherein the free-form area lies below the dysfunctional part. A control data set then is produced that forms the basis for ablating the bone on the ascertained free-form area.10-16-2008
20100272442MEDICAL INSTRUMENT COMPRISING A SEPARATE TRANSMITTER UNIT WHICH CAN BE EXTERIORLY FASTENED - The invention relates to a medical instrument, comprising a signal transmitter and at least one activating device for activating the transmitter which is provided on a transmitter unit which is separate from the instrument, wherein the transmitter unit is a unit which can be fastened to the exterior of the instrument. It also relates to a method for controlling a treatment-assisting medical software by means of a signal transmitter which is arranged on a medical instrument, wherein the instrument is positionally detected by means of a medical tracking system, and wherein the software assigns a different significance to the signal output by the transmitter depending on the position of the instrument.10-28-2010
