In the researchers' words
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the feasibility of using the robotic assisted device ROSA™ for pedicle screws placement. This device is currently used in cranial neurosurgery but its applications can be extended to other fields, such as spinal surgery. In the future, the use of ROSA™ in pedicle screw placement could increase the accuracy and safety of surgery for the patient.
