| Abstract | Orthopedic surgeons have identified a need for calibration artifacts (phantoms) to establish the traceability (to the SI unit of length) of measurements performed with Computer Assisted Orthopedic Surgery (CAOS) systems. These phantoms must be lightweight, easy to transport and simple to use. In collaboration with medical professionals, National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) researchers have developed a family of novel CAOS phantoms designed to meet the metrology needs of this critical segment of the US healthcare industry. The phantoms function as a surrogate hip joint and pelvis and can be measured with CAOS systems using the same technique employed to measure a patient's hip joint and pelvis for replacement surgery. The phantoms contain a mechanical ball joint, which functions as a substitute for a patient's hip joint and small holes, referred to as target holes, for receiving the measuring probe of CAOS systems. The location of the mechanical ball joint and the relative positions of the target holes are measured using the CAOS system and the results compared to the known values for these quantities. The results of this comparison are then used to verify the CAOS system performance specifications. In order to determine the known values for the critical dimensions of the phantom, the mechanical ball joint location and target hole positions are measured with a Coordinate Measuring Machine [1] (CMM), which is more accurate than CAOS Systems. This paper will report on the calibration of the NIST prototype phantom using a CMM and simulation tools at NIST. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
