Percutaneous vertebroplasty (PV) is a safe and effective treatment for relieving pain in patients complaining of severe back pain induced by osteoporotic or neoplastic compression fractures. The success rate exceeds 90% and the complication rate is lower than 1%. Most of the complications are transient.

Prognostic Value of Perioperative Anemia in Neurosurgical‐Oncological Treatment of Spinal Metastases
High perioperative morbidity in patients undergoing surgery for spinal metastases highlights the need to identify modifiable risk factors, particularly the underexplored role of anemia. This study assessed associations between perioperative hemoglobin levels and complications, recurrence, and mortality in patients treated surgically for spinal ...

Multiscale Denoising and Enhancement of 3D Rotational X-ray Imaging for Percutaneous Vertebroplasty [PDF]
3D rotational X-ray (3DRX) imaging has been suggested as an alternative to CT scans for evaluating percutaneous vertebroplasty procedures. We present in this study preliminary work on denoising and enhancement of 3DRX data sets with dyadic wavelet ...
