Abstract

PURPOSE: Pedicle screws placement is very common procedure in spinal surgery. Robotic assisted surgery has been widely used in this operation. We assessed the accuracy of thoracolumbar spine trans-pedicle screws (TPS) implantation utilizing a noval robotic navigation system (i-Navi robotic navigation system) by planning with two-dimensional (2-D) C-arm.
