Intraoperative identification of the tibial fixation staple using the image-based robotic system. The robotic probe is utilized to locate the fixation staple, which was entirely covered by bone and not visible through direct visualization. The system provides real-time spatial feedback, displaying the distance to the bone and mapping reference points for accurate positioning. The inset image on the right shows the corresponding CT scan with the staple’s location, ensuring precise intraoperative identification.
