SafeRPlan: Safe deep reinforcement learning for intraoperative planning of pedicle screw placement.

Medical image analysis
Spinal fusion surgery requires highly accurate implantation of pedicle screw implants, which must be conducted in critical proximity to vital structures with a limited view of the anatomy. Robotic surgery systems have been proposed to improve placeme...

Unveiling surgical expertise through machine learning in a novel VR/AR spinal simulator: A multilayered approach using transfer learning and connection weights analysis.

Computers in biology and medicine
BACKGROUND: Virtual and augmented reality surgical simulators, integrated with machine learning, are becoming essential for training psychomotor skills, and analyzing surgical performance. Despite the promise of methods like the Connection Weights Al...

Clinicosocial determinants of hospital stay following cervical decompression: A public healthcare perspective and machine learning model.

Journal of clinical neuroscience : official journal of the Neurosurgical Society of Australasia
OBJECTIVE: Post-operative length of hospital stay (LOS) is a valuable measure for monitoring quality of care provision, patient recovery, and guiding hospital resource management. But the impact of patient ethnicity, socio-economic deprivation as mea...

Machine learning models on a web application to predict short-term postoperative outcomes following anterior cervical discectomy and fusion.

BMC musculoskeletal disorders
BACKGROUND: The frequency of anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) has increased up to 400% since 2011, underscoring the need to preoperatively anticipate adverse postoperative outcomes given the procedure's expanding use. Our study aims to ...

Analysis of guide wire displacement in robot-assisted spinal pedicle screw implantation.

Journal of robotic surgery
Robot-assisted pedicle screw placement is prone to guide wire migration, and the related influencing factors have not yet been discussed. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate and analyze the causes of robot-assisted spinal pedicle guide wire di...

Predicting early return to the operating room in early-onset scoliosis patients using machine learning techniques.

Spine deformity
PURPOSE: Surgical treatment of early-onset scoliosis (EOS) is associated with high rates of complications, often requiring unplanned return to the operating room (UPROR). The aim of this study was to create and validate a machine learning model to pr...

Comparison of the S8 navigation system and the TINAVI orthopaedic robot in the treatment of upper cervical instability.

Scientific reports
The objective is to compare the clinical efficacy and safety of the S8 navigation system and the Tinavi orthopaedic surgery robot in the treatment of upper cervical instability. The research methods adopted are as follows. The clinical data of patien...

Deep-learning reconstructed lumbar spine 3D MRI for surgical planning: pedicle screw placement and geometric measurements compared to CT.

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 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.
