Abstract

Methods, apparatuses, and systems for robotic insertion of a screw, a rod, or another component of a surgical implant into a patient are disclosed. Clinical data from previous surgical procedures or information received from a supervising surgeon can be leveraged to minimize the risk of harm to the patient and improve outcomes. The methods disclosed thus provide more precise placement of implanted surgical components and implants.
