Study Design: Meta-analysis and dose estimation. Objective: The aim of this study was to
estimate radiation dose during minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion …

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

Background Some symptomatic degenerative conditions of the lumbar spine may be treated
with spinal fusion if conservative treatment has failed. The minimally invasive technique of …

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

BACKGROUND: Recent research on radiation exposure in minimally invasive surgery for
transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS TLIF) has led to the development of a low-dose …

Study Design. Randomized controlled trial. Objective. The aim of this study was to compare
the dosemetrically determined radiation exposure of surgeon and patient during minimally …

Object There is an increasing awareness of radiation exposure to surgeons and the lifelong
implications of such exposure. One of the main criticisms of minimally invasive …

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

Purpose This is a meta-analysis of randomized and non-randomized studies comparing the
clinical and radiological efficacy of minimally invasive (MI) and conventional open …

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