Abstract:
In one aspect, devices for image guided laparoscopic surgery are disclosed. Such devices can comprise a shaft, a surgical component, a handle, and one or more sensors. The shaft comprises a proximal end and a terminal end that opposes the proximal end. The surgical component is disposed at the terminal end of the shaft, and the handle extends from the proximal end of the shaft. The handle comprises one or more actuating components configured to actuate the surgical component. The one or more sensors are disposed on or over the handle, and are configured to detect and/or track movement of the handle and/or actuation of one or more of the actuating components.
