Area of Science:

  • Medical Imaging
  • Interventional Radiology
  • Surgical Navigation

Background:

  • Vertebroplasty is a common procedure for treating vertebral compression fractures.
  • Current methods often rely on fluoroscopy, which involves ionizing radiation.
  • MRI offers superior soft-tissue contrast and lacks ionizing radiation, but guidance can be challenging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility of performing 1.5 Tesla MRI-guided vertebroplasty.
  • To evaluate the efficacy of augmented reality (AR) image overlay navigation for this procedure.

Main Methods:

  • Twenty-five unilateral vertebroplasties were planned and performed on human cadavers.
  • A 1.5T MRI system, AR navigation, and 3D Slicer software were utilized for planning and guidance.
  • Intermittent MRI scans monitored needle placement, with cement injections performed and assessed post-procedure.

Main Results:

  • All 25 planned vertebroplasties were successfully completed.
  • Needle placement accuracy was high, with a mean target error of 6.1 mm.
  • Cement deposition was accurate in all cases, with a mean distance of 4.3 mm from the planned needle tip.

Conclusions:

  • MRI-guided vertebroplasty using AR image overlay navigation is feasible.
  • The technique allows for accurate access to vertebral bodies and precise cement deposition.
  • This method shows promise for safer vertebroplasty procedures without ionizing radiation.
