Upper Lumbar Pedicle Screw Insertion Using Three-Dimensional Fluoroscopy Navigation:Assessment of Clinical Accuracy [PDF]
, 2010 We used a navigation system to insert 128 pedicle screws into 69 vertebrae (L1 to L3) of 49 consecutive patients. We assessed the pedicle isthmic width and the permission angle for pedicle screw insertion. The permission angle is the angle defined by the

Improving vertebra segmentation through joint vertebra-rib atlases [PDF]
SPIE Proceedings, 2016 Accurate spine segmentation allows for improved identification and quantitative characterization of abnormalities of the vertebra, such as vertebral fractures. However, in existing automated vertebra segmentation methods on computed tomography (CT) images, leakage into nearby bones such as ribs occurs due to the close proximity of these visibly intense
