DOI: 10.1002/mp.15927
Abstract: BACKGROUND In Cone-Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) guided radiotherapy, off-by-one vertebral body misalignments are rare but serious errors which lead to wrong-site treatments. PURPOSE An automatic error detection algorithm was developed that uses a three-branch convolutional… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2018.02.009
Abstract: Background Cervical vertebral body fractures generally are treated through an anterior‐posterior approach. Cervical pedicle screws offer an alternative to circumferential fixation. This biomechanical study quantifies whether cervical pedicle screws alone can restore the stability of… read more here.
