Abstract
Systems and methods for providing a reference for an acetabular cup plane in accordance with embodiments of the invention can include a method performed by a computer-aided surgical navigational system with a display screen and at least one sensor. The method can include detecting at least one array associated with a platform upon which the patient is supported in a supine position. The method can also include defining a surgical reference plane for a surgical procedure associated with an acetabular component, based at least in part on detecting the array associated with the upper surface of the platform. Furthermore, the method can include outputting via the screen at least one user interface for use with the surgical procedure associated with an acetabular component, based at least in part on detecting the array associated with the upper surface of the platform.
