Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of low-dose dual energy CT in the pre-surgical planning of patients with progression of scoliosis

Description:

CT imaging is the gold standard for assessing bone dysmorphism and vertebral morphometry during the pre-surgical planning of vertebral arthrodesis. It is necessary in the definition of the fixation points to avoid malposition of transpedicular screws and potential visceral, vascular or neurological damage. It is known that multislice CT involves an increased radiation exposure for patients, while dual-energy CT uses a low-dose acquisition protocol and VEO reconstruction software. The aim of the study is to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of low-dose dual energy CT in the pre-surgical planning of patients with progression of scoliosis who are candidated for vertebral arthrodesis.
