Abstract :
In the existing fluoroscopic-image-based orthopedic surgical navigation system, C-arm calibration target has several shortcomings. In order to overcome these shortcomings, an innovative conceptual design for calibration target is proposed. If the redesigned calibration target can be materialized and substituted for the existing one, and relevant software can be adapted accordingly, performance of surgical navigation system is hopefully to be promoted, and development-running cost be decreased
