What is the purpose of "resection landmarks"? - ANSWER They are used to
calculate condylar resection thickness, based on the proposed implant position.
Which of the following is the ideal placement for the "femur knee centre"
landmark? - ANSWER The most distal location in the trochlea in both the
coronal and sagittal windows.
There are a total of eight Connecticut landmarks. - The answer is true.
What is the major distinction between "estimated cartilage" and "bone
resection"? - ANSWER "Estimated cartilage" includes 2 mm of estimated
cartilage thickness in the resection numbers.
Magenta spheres appear on the bone after visualizing the resection points. The
position of
These spheres are derived using resection landmarks.
The femur mechanical axis is defined by "hip center" and what CT landmark? -
ANSWER Femur Knee Center
How does the MPS determine the distal femoral resection landmarks for the
femur? - ANSWER On the most distal section of the particular plane, avoiding
osteophytes in the center.
Condyle where the implant would sit.
, Tibial proximal resection landmarks are described as: - Answer Points coronally
aligned with a place 2/3 posterior on the proximal lateral plateau.
The Mako System should be placed on the operating table for a robotic-arm-
aided TKA. - The answer is true.
When validating the femoral checkpoint to enter bone prep, the checkpoint
result exceeds
1.0mm. This may have happened if the checkpoint was not placed between
"hard" and "solid" bone. - The answer is true.
The tolerance for receiving the "checkpoint too close to cut" error is ____? -
ANSWER 5MM
Which work@lows in the TKA application incorporate soft tissue balancing?
(Check all of that.
applicable) - ANSWER: Distal/tibia cut first.
Pre-resection balance.
If you suspect a checkpoint has been moved, do the following to resolve the
issue: - ANSWER 1.
Walk three planes in bone registration to confirm the registration is still valid.
2.
