Robot‐assisted surgery facilitates precise path planning and osteotomy plane identification. With the combination of an orthopedic robot and intraoperative ultrasound or the da Vinci robot, it can enhance the precision and safety of bone tumor surgery. Furthermore, it can be integrated with patient‐specific cutting guides to minimize surgical duration.

MRI Signal Void in Degenerated Canine Intervertebral Disks May Represent Mineralization or Gas
ABSTRACT Accurate interpretation of intradiskal signal voids on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is essential to avoid misdiagnosis and improve diagnostic decision‐making in canine spinal imaging. Gas accumulation within the degenerated canine intervertebral disk (IVD), known as vacuum phenomenon (VP), and IVD mineralization are common findings in ...
