Content
The present disclosure enables a surgeon to accurately position the navigation guide 900 which includes the marker(s) 920 and the marker(s) 920 enable a surgeon to accurately deploy the set of proximal guide pins 928 and/or set of distal guide pins 930 which can serve as reference features for a surgical procedure. In this manner, the marker 920 serves a similar role to a fiducial used in other surgical procedures or contexts. Consequently, the navigation guide 900 can serve as a useful tool for a surgeon to ensure that their actions in the physical environment will match those prepared and/or preplanned in a virtual environment or model environment. The reference features serve as valuable resources and/or references for one or more steps of a surgical procedure.
