Abstract
A laser guidance alignment procedure for linear surgical tools by directly drawing two laser-beam lines onto the cylindrical tool surface was presented in our previous papers. In this paper, we describe feasibility analysis of the laser guidance alignment procedure. The available range of tool orientation and entry position is clarified in which accurate guidance is guaranteed. Further, a monolithic integration of the laser devices with an optical tracker is designed using the result of available range analysis. By monolithic integration, usability of the system is expected to greatly improve since the monolithic integrated laser devices can be intraoperatively relocated without the calibration. The details of parameter tuning in the monolithic design were reported.
