Diagnosis of spine pseudoarthrosis based on the biomechanical properties of bone Spine J. (IF 4.9) Pub Date : 2024-08-21 John A. Hipp PhD, Mark M. Mikhael MD, Charles A. Reitman MD, Zorica Buser PhD, Vikas V. Patel MD, Christopher D. Chaput MD, Gary Ghiselli MD, John DeVine MD, Sigurd Berven MD, Pierce Nunley MD, Trevor F. Grieco PhD
Failure to fuse following anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) may result in symptomatic pseudoarthrosis. Traditional diagnosis involves computerized tomography to detect bridging bone and/or flexion-extension radiographs to assess whether segmental motion is above specific thresholds; however, there are currently no well-validated diagnostic tests. We propose a biomechanically rational approach

Effect of the cone-beam CT acquisition trajectory on image quality in spine surgery: experimental cadaver study Spine J. (IF 4.9) Pub Date : 2024-08-21 Maxim Fikuart MD, Benno Bullert MD, Sven Y. Vetter MD, Jochen Franke MD, Paul A. Gruetzner MD, Benedict Swartman MD
Intraoperative 3D imaging with cone-beam CT (CBCT) improves assessment of implant position and reduces complications in spine surgery. It is also used for image-guided surgical techniques, resulting in improved quality of care. However, in some cases, metal artifacts can reduce image quality and make it difficult to assess pedicle screw position and reduction. The objective of this study was to investigate
