Robotic assistance in lumbar fusion surgery: trends and patterns from 2016-2019.

European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society
PURPOSE: Robotic-assisted spine surgery is an emerging field that is growing in utilization. Intraoperative robotic surgical units cost upwards of $600,000 for medical facilities to purchase. Despite significant cost barriers, these devices are highl...

Ultrafast lumbar spine MRI protocol using deep learning-based reconstruction: diagnostic equivalence to a conventional protocol.

Skeletal radiology
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the diagnostic equivalency between an ultrafast (1 min 53 s) lumbar MRI protocol using deep learning-based reconstruction and a conventional lumbar MRI protocol (12 min 31 s).

An externally validated deep learning model for the accurate segmentation of the lumbar paravertebral muscles.

European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society
PURPOSE: Imaging studies about the relevance of muscles in spinal disorders, and sarcopenia in general, require the segmentation of the muscles in the images which is very labour-intensive if performed manually and poses a practical limit to the numb...

External validation of the deep learning system "SpineNet" for grading radiological features of degeneration on MRIs of the lumbar spine.

European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society
BACKGROUND: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used to detect degenerative changes of the lumbar spine. SpineNet (SN), a computer vision-based system, performs an automated analysis of degenerative features in MRI scans aiming to provide high accura...

Spinopelvic measurements of sagittal balance with deep learning: systematic review and critical evaluation.

European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society
PURPOSE: To summarize and critically evaluate the existing studies for spinopelvic measurements of sagittal balance that are based on deep learning (DL).

Localization and Edge-Based Segmentation of Lumbar Spine Vertebrae to Identify the Deformities Using Deep Learning Models.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The lumbar spine plays a very important role in our load transfer and mobility. Vertebrae localization and segmentation are useful in detecting spinal deformities and fractures. Understanding of automated medical imagery is of main importance to help...

Advanced Compliant Anti-Gravity Robot System for Lumbar Stabilization Exercise Using Series Elastic Actuator.

IEEE journal of translational engineering in health and medicine
: The lumbar stabilization exercise is one of the most recommended treatments in medical professionals for patients suffering from low back pain. However, because lumbar stabilization exercise is calisthenics, it is challenging to perform because of ...

Natural language processing for prediction of readmission in posterior lumbar fusion patients: which free-text notes have the most utility?

The spine journal : official journal of the North American Spine Society
BACKGROUND CONTEXT: The increasing volume of free-text notes available in electronic health records has created an opportunity for natural language processing (NLP) algorithms to mine this unstructured data in order to detect and predict adverse outc...

Does Robot Navigation and Intraoperative Computed Tomography Guidance Help with Percutaneous Endoscopic Lumbar Discectomy? A Match-Paired Study.

World neurosurgery
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of robot-assisted percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (rPELD) using a specially designed orthopaedic robot with an intraoperative computed tomography-equipped suite for treatment of symptomatic lum...

Deep learning-based lumbosacral reconstruction for difficulty prediction of percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal discectomy at L5/S1 level: A retrospective cohort study.

International journal of surgery (London, England)
BACKGROUND: Deep learning has been validated as a promising technique for automatic segmentation and rapid three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of lumbosacral structures on CT. Simulated foraminoplasty of percutaneous endoscopic transforaminal disce...
