Computer-assisted surgery (CAS) can improve surgical precision in orthopaedic oncology. Accurate alignment of the patient's imaging coordinates with the anatomy, known as registration, is one of the most challenging aspects of CAS and can be associated with substantial error. Using intraoperative, on-the-table, cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), we performed a pilot clinical study to validate a method for automatic intraoperative registration.
