  • A point cloud registration method using an intraoperative probe tracked by a passive binocular optical tracking system (NDI) and a CT surface.
  • Utilizing centroids of NDI optical tracking markers for initial registration via a three-point method.
  • Employing an improved Iterative Closest Point (ICP) algorithm for accurate registration of sparse point clouds.

Main Results:

  • The proposed method achieved target registration errors (TRE) of (0.55 ± 0.15) mm for acetabular models and (0.67 ± 0.18) mm for femoral models in phantom experiments.
  • Demonstrated superior geometric registration performance compared to the traditional ICP algorithm.
  • Validated through experiments on 3D-printed acetabular and femoral models using a fixture platform.

Conclusions:

  • The developed method provides accurate and stable registration for intraoperative navigation scenarios with sparse point cloud data.
  • Offers a concise workflow and ease of implementation, presenting a feasible technical solution.
  • Significantly improves patient registration accuracy, contributing to enhanced precision in hip replacement surgery.
