Abstract:
The presented approach is the realization of a minimal invasive treatment of pelvis fractures using the computer aided surgery (CAS). Main problem of tracking of major bone fragments after reposition is solved by implementing of 3D ultrasound to obtain intraoperative bone surfaces. Preoperative and intraoperative data sets are matched. Major fragments are tracked. The real time navigation is possible.
