Paper Abstract:      In this paper a way to use a KUKA lightweight robot (LWR) for an intuitive planning of surgical interventions is presented. It is possible to guide the robot by hand and this is used for the planning of the trajectory for bone cutting on the skull. The robot allows hand guided movements that can be used to record the coordinates of the trajectory. The planning system is constructed for a laser osteotomy system including a pilot laser. While the pilot laser shows the position of the point on the real skull, the same position is shown on the model inside the visualization program. Thus the vertices points for the trajectories are selected and the computed trajectory is shown on the model.
