Comparison of Radiation Exposure of AIRO Intraoperative CT with C-Arm Fluoroscopy during Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion
Navigation systems used during minimally invasive spine procedures have evolved from uniplanar, two-dimensional C-arm fluoroscopy to multiplanar, 3D intraoperative computed tomography (iCT). In this study, the radiation exposure to the patient and operating room staff in posterior intervertebral lum...

The effective dose of the surgeon, operating nurse, and anesthesiologist was measured during surgery with personal dosimeters, and the effective dose of the patient was measured with Gafchromic<sup>TM</sup> films. The time efficiency of the procedure was evaluated by recording the duration of pedicle screw fixation and the duration of the total surgery time.
