• We discuss the use of intraoperative computed tomography (CT) with an image-guided surgery system for neurosurgery.
• The use of the intraoperative CT scanner has affected the operating room setup and team member roles.
• We discuss the implementation of this technology into the surgical workflow, especially as it applies to spinal surgery.
• Two case studies illustrate the application of the technology.
This article discusses the use of intraoperative computed tomography (CT) during neurosurgery. This intraoperative CT scanner is integrated with an image-guided surgery system. The authors’ intent is to present information on how these technologies are implemented in the operating room and to describe the improvements in surgical accuracy. Two case studies demonstrate the workflow during spinal procedures and the advantages for the surgeons and patients.
