BACKGROUND: Minimally invasive surgery decreases postoperative pain and disability.
However, limited views of the surgical field require extensive use of intraoperative …

Although minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) has widely
been developed in patients with lumbar diseases, surgeons risk exposure to fluoroscopic …

Object Minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (TLIF) is an increasingly
popular procedure. The technique involves use of fluoroscopy to assist with pedicle screw …

Background Minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MI-TLIF) has
comparable fusion rates and outcomes to the open approach, though many surgeons avoid …

Study Design. Retrospective cohort. Objective. To describe our technique for and evaluate
the time demand, radiation exposure and outcomes of skin-anchored intraoperative three …

Study Design. Retrospective cohort. Objective. To compare robotics and navigation for
minimally invasive elective lumbar fusion in terms of radiation exposure and time demand …

Objective Robotic surgical systems have been developed to improve spine surgery
accuracy. Studies have found significant reductions in screw revision rates and radiation …

Abstract Background Context Imaging modalities used to visualize spinal anatomy
intraoperatively include X-ray studies, fluoroscopy, and computed tomography (CT). All of …

Study Design. A prospective randomized clinical trial. Objective. To compare the impact of
robotic guidance in a minimally invasive spine surgery (MIS) to a fluoroscopy-guided open …

BACKGROUND CONTEXT Minimally invasive spine techniques are becoming increasingly
popular owing to their ability to reduce operative morbidity and recovery times. The …
