Introduction With the advances and improvement of computer-assisted surgery devices,
computer-guided pedicle screws insertion has been applied to the lumbar, thoracic and …

Object Several retrospective studies have demonstrated higher accuracy rates and
increased safety for navigated pedicle screw placement than for free-hand techniques; …

Study Design. Retrospective, multicenter study of robotically-guided spinal implant
insertions. Clinical acceptance of the implants was assessed by intraoperative radiograph …

Robotic-guided and percutaneous pedicle screw placement are emerging technologies. We
here report a retrospective cohort analysis comparing conventional open to open robotic …

Even though robotic technology holds great potential for performing spinal surgery and
advancing neurosurgical techniques, it is of utmost importance to establish its practicality …

The advent and widespread adoption of pedicle screw instrumentation prompted the need
for image guidance in spine surgery to improve accuracy and safety. Although the …

This is an experimental study on human cadaver spines. The objective of this study is to
compare the pullout forces between three screw augmentation methods and two different …

Study Design. Cadaveric laboratory study. Objective. To assess the feasibility and accuracy
of minimally invasive thoracolumbar pedicle screw placement using augmented reality (AR) …

Abstract Background Context Pedicle screws are routinely used in contemporary spinal
surgery. Screw misplacement may be asymptomatic but is also correlated with potential …
