Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) navigation using a computer-assisted technique is being increasingly performed in minimally invasive surgical procedures because it can provide stereoscopic information regarding the operating field to the surgeon. In this paper, the development of a real-time arthroscopic system utilizing an endoscopic camera and optical fiber to navigate a normal vector for a reconstructed knee joint surface is described. A specific navigation approach suitable for use in a rendered surface was presented in extenso. A small-sized endoscopic tube was utilized arthroscopically on a cadaveric knee joint to show the potential application of the developed system. Experimental results of underwater navigation on a synthetic knee joint showed that our system allows for a higher accuracy than a freehand technique. The mean angle of navigation for the proposed technique is 9.5circ (range, 5circ to 17circ; SD, 2.86circ) versus 14.8circ (range, 6circ to 26circ; SD, 7.53circ) and 12.6circ (range, 4circ to 17circ; SD, 3.98circ) for two sites using a freehand technique.
