Low Radiation Protocol for Intraoperative Robotic C-Arm Can Enhance Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis Deformity Correction Accuracy and Safety.

Intraoperative navigation using a CBCT C-arm system improved the accuracy of PS insertion and reduced surgery time. Moreover, it reduced radiation exposure compared with conventional CT, which was further curtailed by adapting the low-dose 5sDCT protocol. In short, our study highlights the benefits of intraoperative CBCT navigation for PS placement in AIS surgery.
