Paragraph Number

113

The location module 420 may include a location module 422. The location module 422 may be configured for automated determination of a location for tendon or tendon substitute deployment. For example, in one embodiment, the location module 422 includes an artificial intelligence or machine learning module 424. The artificial intelligence or machine learning module 424 is configured to implement one or more of a variety of artificial intelligence modules that may be trained for identifying bones in the bone model 404, determining surfaces and/or sides of one or more bones, determining landmarks (both natural and/or abnormalities), determining axes of a bone, such as a longitudinal axis and/or a horizontal axis of a bone based on anatomic data 412 and/or a bone model 404. In another embodiment, the location module 420 may receive patient imaging data, a bone model, a CAD model or the like and use these inputs to determine a location and/or trajectory in relation to one or more bones of a patient.
