Intraosseous ultrasound for assessment of pedicle screw holes in the thoracolumbar spine based on endoscopic ultrasound: An experimental study
EUS-based IOUS is an immediate, reliable and lower-cost technique for accurate determination of pedicle screw hole malposition. With a probe that is both flexible and not easily bendable, the EUS is particularly suitable for IOUS, especially in the narrow space of the bone gaps or bone canals, and minimally invasive spine surgery (MISS).
