Abstract

A surgical tool system with a handpiece that has an internal power generatin g unit used to actuate an accessory attached to the handpiece. Power to actuat e the handpiece comes from a control console. Internal to the accessory there is an identification chip that describes the operating and/or physical characteristics of the accessory. Complementary coils in the handpiece and accessory facilitate the reading by inductive coupling of the data in the accessory. The data in the accessory are inductively read by the control console through the handpiece. Based on the read data, the control console actuates the handpiece in an appropriate manner for the attached accessory. The accessory data and data inductively read from an implant the accessory i s used to set are supplied to a surgical navigation unit. The surgical navigation unit, based on these data, tracks and indicates the position of t he implant as it fitted in the patient.
