Calculation of Mass Attenuation Coefficients for Pedicle Screw by Theoretical and Monte Carlo Simulation Methods

Spine fixation is required in cases such as congenital spinal curvatures, vertebral fractures, sagittal collapse over time, painful kyphosis, and bone load due to tumors. Although there are many methods in the literature, the most commonly used spine fixation method is the fixation with pedicle scre...
