Abstract :
Recent research in orthopedic surgeries indicates that computerassisted robotic systems have shown that robots may improve the precision and accuracy of the surgery which in turn leads to better long-term outcomes. An orthopedic robotic system called OrthoRoby and an intelligent control architecture that will be used in bone cutting operations were developed. In this paper, a medical user interface was developed and integrated into the OrthoRoby system. Medical user interface used Computed Tomography (CT) images of the patients´ bone.
