View Edit Delete	TOY-1	an electronic circuit configured to determine an orientation angle based on a reference axis perpendicular a horizontal plane defined by one of the surfaces of the housing during a calibration mode of the electronic circuit; and	222	Added by DJM 1 2022	1/19/22, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	TOY-1	a power supply configured to provide power to the electronic circuit;	223	Added by DJM 1 2022	1/19/22, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	TOY-1	a handle coaxial with the shaft and positioned between the bone probe and the proximal end of the shaft; and	224	Added by DJM 1 2022	1/19/22, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	TOY-1	a head coupled to the shaft near the proximal end, the head configured to receive an axial force along the shaft from a user when the shaft is oriented at the orientation angle.	225	Added by DJM 1 2022	1/19/22, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	TOY-1	19.The surgical device of claim 18, wherein the electronic circuit enters the calibration mode in response to activation of the zeroing switch.	226	Added by DJM 1 2022	1/19/22, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	TOY-1	Advancements in medical imaging technology enables a doctor/surgeon to obtain precise information about the location, position, orientation, and relation of internal structures of a patient before a surgical procedure. The medical images facilitate preoperative planning for surgical procedures.	2	Added by DJM 1 2022	1/19/22, 12:00 AM
View Edit Delete	TOY-1	However, during a surgical procedure obtaining the same level of precision and information about internal structures of the patient is not readily available. Typically, if a surgeon wants to confirm the location and/or orientation of unexposed structures of the patient during a procedure the surgeon may rely on medical imaging technologies available in an operating room during the procedure. However, access to such medical imaging technologies in the operating room during the procedure may not be practical or feasible due to the high costs of such equipment. In addition, stopping a surgical procedure to take intraoperative images of the patient interrupts the surgical procedure, can require reconfiguration of the surgical field, and extends the duration of the procedure. Extended procedures can require a patient to remain sedated with can increase risks of complications with the success of the procedure.	3	Added by DJM 1 2022	1/19/22, 12:00 AM
