A Novel Method for the Prediction of the Pedicle Screw Stability: Regional Bone Mineral Density Around the Screw

Study Design:Prospective feasibility study on consecutive patients.Objective:The aim of this study was to investigate the ability of regional BMD around the pedicle screw to predict the screw fixation.Summary of Background Data:Pedicle screw fixation is the gold standard technique for spinal fusion.
