INSTRUMENT CHIRURGICAL COMPRENANT UN BOITIER, UN ACCESSOIRE DE COUPE QUI S'ETEND A PARTIR DU BOITIER ET DES ACTIONNEURS QUI ETABLISSENT LA POSITION DE L'ACCESSOIRE DE COUPE PAR RAPPORT AU BOITIER
An instrument for treating tissue during a medical procedure includes a hand-held portion (502, 1204) and a working portion (202). The hand-held portion is manually supported and moved by a user and the working portion is movably coupled to the hand-held portion. A tracking device (114) is attached to the hand-held portion for tracking the instrument. The tracking device is in communication with a control system (120), which is used to keep the working portion within or outside of a boundary (106). A plurality of actuators are operatively coupled to the working portion. The control system instructs the actuators to move the working portion relative to the hand-held portion during the medical procedure in order to maintain a desired relationship between the working portion and the boundary.
