Synopsis

This is a comprehensive review of the rapidly emerging computer-assisted technologies that are starting to fundamentally influence the way that we design, plan, simulate and carry out orthopedic surgery. This well-illustrated volume provides an overview of the state-of-the-art of the development of CAOS, and its clinical applications. Topics covered range from basic concepts to planning, simulation and execution of surgery in different anatomical areas, including the spine, hip and knee. Various surgical techniques, such as joint reconstruction and replacement, trauma fixation, and minimally invasive approaches are also presented.
