NCT04784923

Brief Summary

Our study focuses on reducing the use of CT (Computer Tomography) for pedicle screw instrumentation, replacing CT with X-ray. We are writing a program to measure the position on X-ray seeing whether the position meets that on CT after operation. In the future,our method can be used in fluoroscopy, helping us detecting screw malposition efficiently during the surgeries, and hoping reduce complications.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Verify the position of pedicle screw on X-ray compared to that on CT's

    Investigators will verify CT method's reproducibility by interobserver and intra-observer reliability test. With the same databank, investigators will use the plain radiograph method again, and test if the two methods' results are the same by Chi-square test.
