摘要：
Provided is a surgical method. The method includes detecting a location of a reference unit having a trackable element with a detector, the detector configured to provide at least one signal corresponding to a detected location of at least the reference unit's trackable element, wherein the reference unit is associated with a location of an anatomical feature of a being's anatomy； accessing a computer-readable reconstruction of the being's anatomy, the computer-readable reconstruction of the being's anatomy having a first updatable orientation, wherein the first updatable orientation is updated in response to the at least one signal； accessing a computer-readable reconstruction of an implant having a second updatable orientation； detecting a location of a pointer tool comprising a trackable element with the detector, the detector further configured to provide at least one other signal corresponding to a detected location of at least the pointer tool, wherein the pointer tool is associated with a location of an anatomical feature of interest； accessing at least one computer-readable reconstruction of a trace, the trace corresponding to a geometry of the anatomical feature of interest based on updated detected locations of the pointer tool； superimposing the at least one updatable, computer-readable trace on the second computer-readable reconstruction of the implant.
