Introduction Modern techniques in orthopaedic surgery using minimally invasive
procedures, and increased use of fluoroscopic imaging present a potential increased risk to …

Intraoperative imaging is vital for accurate placement of instrumentation in spine surgery.
However, the use of biplanar fluoroscopy and other intraoperative imaging modalities is …

OBJECTIVE Improvements in imaging technology have steadily advanced surgical
approaches. Within the field of spine surgery, assistance from the O-arm Multidimensional …

Objective. There is a steep learning curve with traditional percutaneous endoscopic lumbar
discectomy (PELD). The aim of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of PELD …

Background Despite the firmly established occupational risk of exposure to X-rays, they are
used extensively in spine surgeries. Shielding by lead aprons is the most common protective …

Background Although O-arm–based navigation (ON) has been considered a better choice
than the conventional freehand (FH) technique for spine surgery, clinical evidence showing …
