MvIGS for screw insertion in PSF contributed to a significant reduction in intraoperative radiation exposure and fluoroscopy time, as well as blood loss and length of stay. The real-time feedback and ability to visualize the pedicle in 3D with MvIGS enabled greater curve correction without increasing the operative time.
