Dr. Poelstra has been involved with clinical studies on BoneMRI, and the software provides intraoperative registration for screw trajectory planning, according to a Jan. 10 company news release.
“After several simulated planning with BoneMRI side by side with traditional CT scans, I was able to determine that the accuracy and image quality was very comparable,” Dr. Poelstra said in the release.
