PURPOSE: To test equivalency of deep-learning 3D lumbar spine MRI with "CT-like" contrast to CT for virtual pedicle screw planning and geometric measurements in robotic-navigated spinal surgery.
This study aimed to investigate the minimum number of operations required for itinerant nurses in the operating room to master the skills needed to operate the Ti-robot-assisted spinal surgery equipment. Additionally, we aimed to provide a correspond...
This study aimed to assess the effectiveness and safety of robot-assisted versus fluoroscopy-assisted pedicle screw implantation in scoliosis surgery. The study was registered in the PROSPERO (CRD42023471837). Two independent researchers searched Pub...
PURPOSE: To evaluate the ability of an artificial intelligence (AI) tool in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) assessment of degenerative pathologies of lumbar spine using radiologist evaluation as a gold standard.
INTRODUCTION: Low back pain is a global health issue causing disability and missed work days. Commonly used MRI scans including T1-weighted and T2-weighted images provide detailed information of the spine and surrounding tissues. Artificial intellige...
BACKGROUND: Robotic spinal surgery may result in better pedicle screw placement accuracy, and reduction in radiation exposure and length of stay, compared to freehand surgery. The purpose of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to compare screw ...
BACKGROUND: Vague spinal anatomical landmarks in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS) make intraoperative insertion of pedicle screws difficult under direct vision. Currently, the clinical outcome is significantly improved with robot guidance. T...

A metabolic bone disease characterized by decreased bone formation and increased bone resorption is osteoporosis. It can cause pain and fracture of patients. The elderly are prone to osteoporosis and are more vulnerable to osteoporosis. In this study...
Robot-assisted (RA) technology has been widely used in spine surgery. This analysis aimed to compare the effectiveness and safety of RA minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) and fluoroscopy-assisted (FA) MIS-TLIF for de...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Deep learning (DL) accelerated MR techniques have emerged as a promising approach to accelerate routine MR exams. While prior studies explored DL acceleration for specific lumbar MRI sequences, a gap remains in comprehending t...
