Bending procedure for rod used in operatively treating scoliosis, by determining space curve or target curve using navigation system which dismantles the curve into part curves from which the bending of the rod takes place

摘要

A space curve (2) or a target curve is determined for the rod using a navigation system which dismantles the curve into part curves (5.1,5.2) from which the bending of the rod takes place. An independent claim is also included for an apparatus in bending a rod used in operatively treating scoliosis.
