Filter by:1. Exploit CT (plain scan), enhanced CT and fMRI based radiomic biomarkers, explore their correlation with the prognostic molecular markers of spinal GCTB(p53/vegf/rank/rankl…), and help accurate diagnosis of GCTB. 2. Exploring a new method of preoperative risk stratification for spinal GCTB, and establishing radiomic model combined with clinical features. Exploring the GCTB biological behavior prediction model and the prognosis prediction of GCTB.
The research project is testing whether in screw insertion of spine surgery using "Anatase" Spine Surgery Navigation System is at least as safe and accurate as using O-arm assisted spine surgery- Medtronic Stealthstation S7 Treatment Guidance System.
Spinal biopsy is important to obtain culture and histopathological diagnosis in spine infection and tumors. To date, there is no prospective randomized study comparing both techniques. Therefore, the aim of this prospective randomized trial was to evaluate the accuracy, safety and diagnostic outcome of both these techniques.A prospective randomized trial was performed in 60 patients divided equally into fluoroscopic and CT guided spinal biopsy groups. Transpedicular approach was done with 8G core biopsy needle. Specimens were sent for histopathological examinations and cultures. Diagnosis were made based on biopsy results, clinical criteria and disease progression during 6 months follow up. Radiation expose to patients and doctors were measured with optically stimulated luminescence dosimeters (OSLDs).
This research study is evaluating suitability of a delayed magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in management of spine tumors. Currently the standard of care is obtaining an MRI scan in the early postoperative period (within 72 hours after surgery). The purpose of this study is to see if delayed MRI (2 to 3 weeks after surgery) is similar in quality to the earlier MRI. In this study patients will undergo 2 MRIs after the surgery instead of one MRI. Patients will have one MRI about 3 days after the surgery and one MRI about 2-3 weeks after surgery.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn about the safety and accuracy of using MRI as a guidance system during laser ablation surgery of tumors that have spread to the spine.
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate that the efficacy and safety of Spine fusion system manufactured in China is no inferior than imported product.
The goal of the first part of this clinical research study is to learn how to deliver more accurate radiation treatment of tumors in the spine. Researchers also want to learn how internal organs might move during radiation treatment. The goal of the second part of this study is to learn if it is safe to allow slightly more radiation to the normal esophagus when spinal tumors close by are being treated. This may result in better tumor control.
