Patent attributes
A computer-implemented method for producing a treatment plan to control manipulation of a fixation apparatus including a first element and a second ring and struts to correct an anatomical structure deformity of first and second anatomical structure segments, including: receiving, using one or more graphical user interfaces of a computing system, configuration information associated with the fixation apparatus, the configuration information comprising one or more geometric characteristics of one or more elements of the fixation apparatus and ring deformation information; receiving, by the computing system, images of the fixation apparatus and the first and the second anatomical structure segments attached thereto; determining, by the computing system, based on the configuration information and the received images, positions and orientations of the first and the second anatomical structure segments in three-dimensional space relative to the fixation apparatus; determining the hole locations of the first element based upon the deformation information; determining, by the computing system, manipulations to the fixation apparatus for correction of the anatomical structure deformity, the manipulations comprising adjustments to the struts based upon the determined hole location of the first element; and providing, by the computing system, to one or more users, indications of the manipulations to the fixation apparatus.
