## Indications for use
The Fluorotactic Guidance System Mk. I will be used to assist in the accurate placement of a guiding device for surgery in which a lincar trajectory insertion or placcment is required. This system will use coordinated-fluoroscopy to allow intra-operative planning of the precise insertion point and angle of a device such as a screw, nail, or needle, The surgeon will place a registration artifact over the desired surgical area and capture two fluoroscopic images, which will then be displayed on two computer screens. The surgeon will manipulate a virtual guidewire on the screens, until the desired angle and placement is achieved. The system will then output 3D coordinates to the robot arm which will mave the drill gnide to a precise position.
