Objective: Today, multiple solutions for navigation-guided pedicle screw placement are available. For the present study, we compared the applied radiation doses of sliding gantry CT-based (SGCT) and mobile cone-beam CT-based (CBCT) pedicle screw placement for spinal instrumentation.

Methods: We analyzed 183 and 54 patients who underwent SGCT-based using an automated radiation dose adjustment or standard CBCT-based pedicle screw placement for spinal instrumentation at our department between 06/2019 and 01/2020, respectively.

Results: Baseline characteristics including the number of screws per patient and the number of instrumented levels did not differ between the two groups. Although the accuracy of screw placement according to Gertzbein-Robbins classification did not differ between the two groups, more screws had to be revised intraoperatively in the CBCT group (SGCT: 39, 2.7% vs. CBCT: 23, 6.0%; p=0.0036). Mean ± standard deviation radiation doses [mGy*cm] for the first (SGCT: 484.0±201.1, CBCT: 687.4±188.5; p<0.0001), second (SGCT: 515.8±216.3, CBCT: 658.3±220.1; p<0.0001), third (SGCT: 531.3±237.5, CBCT: 641.6±177.3; p=0.0140), and the total of all scans (SGCT: 1216.9±699.3, CBCT: 2000.3±921.0; p<0.0001) were significantly lower in the SGCT group. The same applies to radiation doses per level (SGCT: 461.9±429.3, CBCT: 1004.1±905.1; p<0.0001) and radiation doses per screw (SGCT: 172.6±110.1, CBCT: 349.6±273.4; p<0.0001).

Conclusion: The present results show that the applied radiation doses are significantly lower using a SGCT for navigated pedicle screw placement in spinal instrumentation. A modern CT scanner on a sliding gantry leads to lower doses, especially through automated 3D radiation dose adjustment.
