Freehand Technique for Pedicle Screw Placement during Surgery for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Is Associated with Less Ionizing Radiation Compared to Intraoperative Navigation

Freehand Technique for Pedicle Screw Placement during Surgery for Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Is Associated with Less Ionizing Radiation Compared to Intraoperative Navigation

Purpose: We aim to compare radiation exposure and implant-related complications of the freehand (FH) technique versus intraoperative image-guided navigation (IN) for pedicle screw placement in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) and estimate associated lifetime attributable cancer risks. Methods:...
