Summary:To provide an apparatus for use in image-guided surgery.SOLUTION: An apparatus includes a proximal portion and a distal portion attached to the proximal portion. The proximal portion includes a proximal surface. The proximal portion defines a first pathway and a second pathway that both extend distally from the proximal surface. The first pathway is dimensioned to receive a shaft while the second pathway is dimensioned to receive a navigation guidewire. The distal portion includes a distal tip terminating in a distal end. The second pathway extends from the proximal portion to the distal tip.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】画像誘導手術に用いる装置を提供すること。【解決手段】装置は、近位部分と、近位部分に取り付けられた遠位部分とを含む。近位部分は近位表面を含む。近位部分は、第１の経路及び第２の経路を画定し、その両方が近位表面から遠位に延在する。第１の経路は、シャフトを受容するように寸法決めされ、第２の経路はナビゲーションガイドワイヤを受容するように寸法決めされる。遠位部分は、遠位端で終端する遠位先端部を含む。第２の経路は、近位部分から遠位先端部へと延在する。【選択図】図１
