In knee replacement surgery the positioning of the new joint parts must be accurate. In computer-assisted surgery, the computer helps the surgeon in achieving this.
The surgeon attaches special reflectors to the patient's thigh and leg bones that are detected by an infrared camera connected to the computer. The computer then constructs an electronic model of the knee from the information fed by the surgeon. This helps the surgeon for proper positioning of the parts.
