| pubmed-article:15849639 | pubmed:abstractText | The transpedicular placement of a hollow needle into vertebral bodies for kyphoplasty requires utmost accuracy and thereby permanent multiplanar X-ray control. Facing the increasing number of vertebral compression fractures, the aim of this work was the implementation of computer-assistance to optimise the issue. Prior to clinical implementation, experimental trials were undertaken to analyse the quality-improving options of the technique. | lld:pubmed |
