U.S., June 13 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07644507) titled 'Role of Intraoperative Computed Tomography in Assessment of Spine Instability in Lumbar Degenerative Disease' on May 28.
Brief Summary: This study examines how well computed tomography (CT) imaging performed during spine surgery - known as intraoperative CT - can detect instability in the lower (lumbar) part of the spine. Spinal instability means that the bones of the spine move more than they normally should, which can contribute to pain and may affect the outcome of surgery.
Before surgery, doctors usually check for this instability using X-rays taken while the patient bends forward and backward. These X-rays do not always show i...
