Abstract

BACKGROUND: Identification of patients with high-risk of experiencing inability to walk after surgery is important for surgeons to make therapeutic strategies for patients with metastatic spinal disease. However, there is a lack of clinical tool to assess postoperative ambulatory status for those patients. The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) brings a promising opportunity to develop accurate prediction models.
