摘要：
A computer-assisted surgery (CAS) system comprises a cup implanting device including a shaft having a tooling end and a handle end with a handle for being manipulated, the shaft having a longitudinal axis, the tooling end adapted to support a cup for being received in an acetabulum of a patient, and a rotation indicator having a visual guide representative of a device plane, wherein the device plane is in a known position and orientation relative to a center of the cup on the tooling end. A CAS processing unit includes at least one inertial sensor unit connected to the cup implanting device, the inertial sensor unit outputting three-axes readings and having a virtual preset orientation related to a reference axis of a pelvis of the patient, the virtual preset orientation being based on pre-operative imaging specific to the pelvis of the patient, the reference axis of the pelvis passing through a center of rotation of said acetabulum of the pelvis and through a reference landmark of the pelvis, wherein an instant three-axis orientation of the longitudinal axis of the cup implanting device is trigonometrically known relatively to the reference axis when the cup is in the acetabulum of the patient and the device plane passes through the reference landmark via the visual guide, the instant three-axis orientation used for calibrating the inertial sensor unit on the cup implanting device relative to the pelvis.
