Abstract
|
|
|
Computer-assisted spine surgery (CASS) is a new discipline involving application of computer engineering and mechanical engineering to spine surgery. The tools used most commonly include preoperative surgical simulation, intraoperative navigation, and robot-assisted surgery. Surgical simulation has been utilized for both clinical and basic research. Navigation in spine surgery has focused on guidance of screw placement, however, due to limited accuracy and high cost, its use is somewhat sparse. CASS may be combined with minimal invasive spine surgery in the near future. Further validation of clinical accuracy issues and surgical outcomes as well as cost-benefit analysis is required.
