Orthopedics has long grappled with an accuracy conundrum—not in the finesse of individual techniques, but in the elusive quest to quantify and standardize them across the board. From assessing ligament laxity in joints to navigating scopes during arthroscopy, measuring surgical ergonomics, or even decoding the torque-force dynamics in screw constructs, surgeons have leaned heavily on years of training, intuition, and that indefinable "artistry" honed in the operating room. Advanced tools like robots, navigation systems, and extended reality (XR) setups are game-changers in select cases, but le...
