Abstract

The robot-assisted systems are increasingly used in operations to improve the accuracy of pedicle screws in spinal surgery. Surgeons can use robotic systems in almost all spinal procedures such as degenerative, fracture, stenosis, scoliosis and at any vertebral level. A 3D or 4D scanning provides real-time information necessary for planning the screw placement and enables the insertion of accurate screws even in the presence of severe degeneration or anatomical variations. Studies on robot-assisted spine surgeries demonstrate an overall accuracy level of 98 percent in these operations
