Deep-learning reconstructed lumbar spine 3D MRI for surgical planning: pedicle screw placement and geometric measurements compared to CT

ConclusionDeep-learning 3D MRI facilitates equivalent virtual pedicle screw placements and geometric assessments for most lumbar vertebrae, with the exception of vertebral body length at L1, L2, and L4, compared to CT for pre-operative planning in patients considered for robotic-navigated spine surgery.
