Automatic Optical Identification of the Spine Vertebrae Using Three-dimensional Optical Detection Based on a CT Test

What this Trial Is About

This research focuses on patients undergoing spinal surgery involving vertebrae, intervertebral discs, and the spinal cord. It evaluates a new optical detection method that uses three-dimensional imaging based on CT scans to identify vertebrae during surgery. The study is observational and aims to improve accuracy and reduce radiation exposure compared to current navigation technologies that rely on CT scans performed before or during surgery. The study assesses DEEP HEALTH's detection algorithm, which uses optical scanning to identify vertebrae with high precision (less than 0.5 mm). Unlike existing methods, this optical technique does not involve radiation and can be used continuously throughout the surgery. The optical system captures three-dimensional structures without the need for markers or extensive imaging. Participants will be patients who have spinal CT scans and are scheduled for spinal surgery. Researchers will monitor the accuracy of the optical detection algorithm over 12 months. Data collection includes CT images and surgery details. The study aims to measure how well the algorithm detects vertebrae during surgery with ongoing observation but does not involve additional treatments or interventions.
