  • To propose a comparative method for evaluating surgical accuracy.
  • To quantify the quality of surgical procedures by analyzing execution data.

Main Methods:

  • Developing a validation process for CAS tools.
  • Comparing virtual surgical trajectories with real-world execution.
  • Decoding procedural data to obtain numerical quality metrics.

Main Results:

  • The study aims to establish a quantitative method for assessing surgical performance.
  • Validation will provide objective measures of accuracy and safety improvements.
  • Data analysis will reveal discrepancies between planned and executed surgical paths.

Conclusions:

  • Accurate validation of CAS tools is crucial for advancing surgical practice.
  • This comparative method will enable objective evaluation of surgical technique.
  • The project will contribute numerical data to define and improve surgical quality standards.
