1. A method for the computer assisted repair of a bone fracture comprising the steps of:

  • acquiring intra-operative imaging data of a first bone segment, a second bone segment, and a third bone element;

    generating a first bone model based upon the imaging data of the first bone segment, and a second bone model based upon the imaging data of the second bone segment;

    determining an initial position of first and second bone models;

    generating a third bone model based upon the imaging data of the third bone element;

    determining a final position of the first and second bone models based upon the third bone model; and

    providing position information of the first and second bone models to a user for the reduction of the first and second bone segments.
